Promoter hypermethylation of KLOTHO; an anti-senescence related gene in colorectal cancer patients of Kashmir valley
Hypermethylation of CpG islands located in the promoter regions of genes is a major event in the development of the majority of cancer types, due to the subsequent aberrant silencing of important tumor suppressor genes. KLOTHO; a novel gene associated primarily with suppressing senescence has been shown to contribute to tumorigenesis as a result of its impaired function. Recently the relevance ...
متن کاملHuman papillomavirus-related esophageal cancer survival
BACKGROUND Human papillomavirus (HPV) has been identified to be related to progression of esophageal cancer. However, the results remain controversial. A meta-analysis of epidemiologic studies was therefore conducted to address this issue. METHODS The electronic databases of MEDLINE and Excerpta Medica database were searched till April 30, 2016. Study-specific risk estimates were pooled using...
متن کاملExpression of the TRAG-3 gene in human esophageal cancer: the frequent synchronous expression of MAGE-3 gene.
We previously reported some cancer testis antigens, especially for MAGE genes, to be expressed in a relatively high population of gastro-intestinal and breast cancers. TRAG-3 (Taxol resistant associated gene-3) may be another cancer testis antigen; however, its expression has still not been fully studied. The TRAG-3 expression was evaluated in a total of 57 cancer cell lines and 322 cancer samp...
متن کاملRecent advances in esophageal cancer gene therapy.
In recent years, the development of gene therapy systems as new treatment or prevention strategies for various malignant diseases has been explored. Based on the genetic background of esophageal cancer, several molecular therapies have been developed. In this article, we review p53 genetic alterations and angiogenesis in esophageal cancer. Our recent clinical results from a phase I/II study of ...
متن کاملRisk of treatment-related esophageal cancer among breast cancer survivors.
BACKGROUND Radiotherapy for breast cancer may expose the esophagus to ionizing radiation, but no study has evaluated esophageal cancer risk after breast cancer associated with radiation dose or systemic therapy use. DESIGN Nested case-control study of esophageal cancer among 289 748 ≥5-year survivors of female breast cancer from five population-based cancer registries (252 cases, 488 individu...
