Ovarian cancers express and process progastrin.
Gastrin synthesis in ovarian tumors has been described in a few isolated cases associated with the Zollinger-Ellison syndrome. Consequently, ovarian gastrin synthesis has been considered exceptional. In order to evaluate whether expression of gastrin in ovarian tumors indeed is rare, we examined the expression and processing of progastrin in 16 malignant and 5 benign ovarian tumors and 4 normal...
متن کاملSomatostatin Decorated Quantum Dots Nanoparticles for Targeting of Somatostatin Receptors
Due to the unique optical properties like high brightness and narrow emission bands of Quantum dots, it is used as simple fluorescence materials in bio-imaging, immunoassays, microarrays, and other applications. To easy invistigate cell lines that overexpressed somtostatin receptors, somatostatin (SST) was conjugated with Quantum dots carrying PEG amine (Qdots-PEG-NH2). The conjugation of SST t...

متن کاملHuman cancers express a mutator phenotype.
Cancer cells contain numerous clonal mutations, i.e., mutations that are present in most or all malignant cells of a tumor and have presumably been selected because they confer a proliferative advantage. An important question is whether cancer cells also contain a large number of random mutations, i.e., randomly distributed unselected mutations that occur in only one or a few cells of a tumor. ...
متن کاملIn North America, Some Ovarian Cancers Express the Oncogenes of Preventable Human Papillomavirus HPV-18
Some researchers in other regions have recommended human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccination to reduce risk of ovarian cancer, but not in North America, where evidence has previously suggested no role for HPV in ovarian cancer. Here we use a large sample of ovarian cancer transcriptomes (RNA-Seq) from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database to address whether HPV is involved with ovarian cancer in...
