متن کاملPrognostic significance of tissue factor in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma.
Tissue factor (TF) is a transmembrane glycoprotein that plays roles in the blood coagulation and intracellular signaling pathways, and has also been suggested to modulate the biological behavior of cancer cells. In order to examine the clinicopathologic significance of TF expression in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma, TF expression was determined by immunohistochemistry using a newly raised an...
متن کاملPrognostic Significance of Erythropoietin in Pancreatic Adenocarcinoma
BACKGROUND Erythropoietin (Epo) administration has been reported to have tumor-promoting effects in anemic cancer patients. We investigated the prognostic impact of endogenous Epo in patients with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). METHODOLOGY The clinico-pathological relevance of hemoglobin (Hb, n = 150), serum Epo (sEpo, n = 87) and tissue expression of Epo/Epo receptor (EpoR, n = 104...
متن کاملIs hyaluronan deposition in the stroma of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma of prognostic significance?
BACKGROUND Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) has a dismal prognosis and the number of PDAC-related deaths is rising. Recently the tumour stroma and in particular one of its main components, hyaluronan (HA), have attracted considerable attention as intravenous hyaluronidase treatment together with conventional chemotherapy considerably prolonged survival in HA-rich PDA patients. We therefo...
متن کاملExpression of LRP16 in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma and its clinicopathological significance and prognostic value
Background: The aim of this study is to evaluate the expression of leukemia related protein 16 (LRP16) in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma, and analyze its correlation with clinicopathologic features and prognosis. Methods: Immunohistochemistry for LRP16 was performed in 118 cases of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma and 34 cases of distal normal pancreatic tissue. The relationship between LRP16...
