TCTN2: a novel tumor marker with oncogenic properties
Tectonic family member 2 (TCTN2) encodes a transmembrane protein that belongs to the tectonic family, which is involved in ciliary functions. Previous studies have demonstrated the role of tectonics in regulating a variety of signaling pathways at the transition zone of cilia. However, the role of tectonics in cancer is still unclear. Here we identify that TCTN2 is overexpressed in colorectal, ...
متن کاملOncogenic histone methyltransferase EZH2: A novel prognostic marker with therapeutic potential in endometrial cancer
The histone methyltransferase EZH2, a key epigenetic modifier, is known to be associated with human tumorigenesis. However, the physiological importance of EZH2 and its clinical relevance in endometrial cancer remain unclear. Hence, in the present study, we investigated the expression and function of EZH2 in endometrial cancer. In a quantitative real-time PCR analysis of 11 endometrial cancer c...
متن کاملSuprabasin as a novel tumor endothelial cell marker
Recent studies have reported that stromal cells contribute to tumor progression. We previously demonstrated that tumor endothelial cells (TEC) characteristics were different from those of normal endothelial cells (NEC). Furthermore, we performed gene profile analysis in TEC and NEC, revealing that suprabasin (SBSN) was upregulated in TEC compared with NEC. However, its role in TEC is still unkn...
متن کاملHuman kallikrein 10: a novel tumor marker for ovarian carcinoma?
BACKGROUND Human kallikrein 10 (hK10, encoded by KLK10 gene) is a recently discovered member of the human kallikrein family. hK10 is a secreted serine protease. With the development of a highly sensitive and specific immunoassay for hK10, quantification of hK10 in the circulation is now feasible. Our aim was to investigate whether hK10 concentration in serum changes in various malignancies. M...
متن کاملPH20: a novel tumor marker for laryngeal cancer.
OBJECTIVE To determine whether levels of PH-20, a hyaluronidase similar to that found in human sperm, are elevated in laryngeal cancer tissue. DESIGN In this case-control study. reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction was used to measure levels of PH-20 messenger RNA in tissue taken from laryngectomy specimens. SETTING A university medical center. PATIENTS We compared tissue sampl...
