Small bowel adenocarcinoma copy number profiles are more closely related to colorectal than to gastric cancers.
BACKGROUND Small bowel adenocarcinoma (SBA) is a rare cancer and consequently, the options for clinical trials are limited. As they are treated according to either a colorectal or a gastric cancer regimen and the molecular biology of a tumor is a pivotal determinant for therapy response, chromosomal copy number aberrations were compared with the colorectal and gastric adenocarcinomas. MATERIA...
متن کاملCytokeratin7 expression in gastric and colorectal adenocarcinoma: Correlation with prognostic factors
Background: Gastric and colorectal adenocarcinoma are the second and the fifth most common cancers in Iran, respectively. Expression of cytokeratin 7 (CK7) is established in most malignancies including gastric and colorectal adenocarcinoma. Demonstration of Ck7 could be related to prognostic factors and help to the better management of the patients. The objective of our study was to evalu...
متن کاملAnalysis of TP53 Codon 72 Polymorphism in Mucinous and Non-Mucinous Colorectal Adenocarcinoma in Isfahan, Iran
Background: The tumor suppressor gene TP53 (alias p53) located on chromosome 17 is involved in various cancers. Case-control studies have shown that p53 codon 72 polymorphism modulates the prognosis and susceptibility to various malignancies. We undertook the present study to explore a possible association between mucinous and non-mucinous adenocarcinomas with different genotypes or alleles at ...
متن کاملHigh-resolution array comparative genomic hybridization in sporadic and celiac disease-related small bowel adenocarcinomas.
PURPOSE The molecular pathogenesis of small intestinal adenocarcinomas is not well understood. Understanding the molecular characteristics of small bowel adenocarcinoma may lead to more effective patient treatment. EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN Forty-eight small bowel adenocarcinomas (33 non-celiac disease related and 15 celiac disease related) were characterized for chromosomal aberrations by high-res...
متن کاملAltered JS-2 expression in colorectal cancers and its clinical pathological relevance.
JS-2 is a novel gene located at 5p15.2 and originally detected in primary oesophageal cancer. There is no study on the role of JS-2 in colorectal cancer. The aim of this study is to determine the gene copy number and expression of JS-2 in a large cohort of patients with colorectal tumours and correlate these to the clinicopathological features of the cancer patients. We evaluated the DNA copy n...
