Comparative study of chemo-sensitivity expressed as micronuclei in lymphocytes of breast cancer patients, their unaffected first degree relatives and normal controls as a possible prognostic marker
Background: Genomic instability is one of primary causes for malignant cell transformation. In this study induced genomic instability expressed as micronuclei in breast cancer (BC) patients with different stages of the disease compared with their unaffected first degree relatives (FDR) and normal unrelated controls was investigated. Materials and Methods: The background and net micronucleus fre...
متن کاملPrognostic molecular markers in hepatocellular carcinoma (Review article
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the 5th commonest malignancy worldwide and is the third most common cause of cancer-related death. The prevalence is different in the world. The ability to predict patients at higher risk of recurrence and with a poor prognosis would help to guide surgical and chemotherapeutic treatment according to individual risk. As understanding of hepatocarcinogenesi...
متن کاملC 3 / Padres Pedal the Cause 2017 “ Targeting cellular mechanotransduction in breast cancer
SCIENTIFIC ABSTRACT Breast tumors are often detected through physical palpation due to their apparent “hardness” compared to normal mammary tissues. The presence of a fibrotic focus in breast tumors, which is associated with a 20-50 fold increase in tissue rigidity, is a prognostic marker of distant metastasis and poor survival. Direct measurement of tissue rigidities in human breast cancer sam...

متن کاملTwo distinct routes to oral cancer differing in genome instability and risk for cervical node metastasis.
PURPOSE Problems in management of oral cancers or precancers include identification of patients at risk for metastasis, tumor recurrence, and second primary tumors or risk for progression of precancers (dysplasia) to cancer. Thus, the objective of this study was to clarify the role of genomic aberrations in oral cancer progression and metastasis. EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN The spectrum of copy numbe...
