The Immunohistochemical Staining of Vimentin and E-Cadherin in Bladder Cancer Patients Infected with Hepatitis C Virus

The invasion and spread of cancer cells are two the most notable characteristics malignant tumors. Recent studies suggest that epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) has been linked to this significant occurrence. It is absence epithelial brow presence mesenchymal facial hair. aims present study were explore immunohistochemical staining vimentin E-cadherin ex vivo as EMT markers assess their potential predictive biomarkers for transitional cell (TCC). In study, 55 paraffin-embedded biopsies from TCC patients 10 autopsies appeared be normal included. Immunohistochemistry was used produce patterns expression. When compared female patients, expression significantly increased with increasing age in male (> 50 years). contrast considerable rise higher grades stages tumor, reduced tumor stage grade. findings reveal elevated important indicators associated a poor prognosis TCC.
