Cell - free DNA: بیومارکر نوین تشخیص آزمایشگاهی

به انواع مختلف اسیدهای نوکلئیک آزاد در پلاسما شامل قطعات DNA ژنومی،DNA میتوکندریایی، DNA و mRNA های ویروسی و همچنین انواع miRNA اصطلاحا Cell–free nucleic acid گفته می شود. بخش مهمی از این اسیدهای نوکلئیک آزاد در پلاسما را Cell–free DNA (cfDNA) تشکیل می دهد. cfDNA به صورت قطعاتی با وزن مولکولی حدود KB 21-0.18 در سرم یا پلاسمای افراد سالم و افراد مبتلا به بسیاری از بیماری ها قابل تشخیص هستند. ...

Metastatic Renal cell Carcinoma Presenting as a clear-cell Tumor in Tongue: A Case Report

Introduction: Metastatic lesions of the oral cavity are extremely rare, accounting for approximately 1% of all malignant oral tumors. The most common primary sources of metastatic tumors in the oral region are, from the most to the least common, the breast, lung, kidney, bone, and colon. Renal cell carcinoma accounts for nearly 3% of all adult malignancies. It usually metastasizes to the lungs,...

Serum Endostatin Levels in Oral Squamous Cell Carcinoma

Introduction: Endostatin is a C-­terminal proteolytic fragment of collagen XVIII and, as with angiostatin and thrombospondin, is known as an anti­angiogenic agent. The aim of this study was to assess the level of serum endostatin in patients with oral squamous cell carcinoma (SCC), and its association with the clinicopathological characteristics of the tumor.   Materials and Methods:  Using an ...
