Blood groups and lung cancer.
نویسنده
چکیده
The ABO and Rhesus blood groups were determined in 1257 men with lung cancer; in 802 instances there was sufficient histological material available for the tumour to be classified as differentiated or undifferentiated and for the type of differentiation to be determined; in most of the remaining cases the diagnosis was made on clinical and radiological evidence. The proportions of men with the several blood groups were compared with a control series which consisted of 9649 individuals from this part of South West Wales whose blood groups were determined in this laboratory (Ashley and Davies, 1966a).

Abstract Background: Two types of Cyclooxygenase enzymes, which produce prostaglandins, are present in humans. Prostaglandins play a role in the functions of various organs including the immune system, blood circulation, and cell division. Reports indicate that the level of these enzymes is increased in patients with metastases in several malignancies, including larynx, lung, stomach, colon, an...

Introduction: Although extensive research has been conducted on lung cancer markers, a singular clinically applicable marker has not been found yet. The objective of this study was to evaluate the sensitivity and the specificity of carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) mRNA and lung-specific X protein (LUNX) mRNA biomarkers in peripheral blood to detect lung cancer individually and simultaneously. Met...
متن کاملSHOX2 and WT1 Promoter Methylation Correlates with the Lung Cancer in Iranian Patients
Lung cancer is among the most common cause of cancer death in the world. Since the disease is diagnosed in the middle or late stages of the cancer development a more efficient method for an early diagnosis of the disease is required. The main goal of this study was to investigate the correlation between aberrant promoter methylation of the two genes: SHOX2(Short stature homeobox 2) and WT1(Wilm...
متن کاملEvaluation of the risk of lung cancer associated with NAD(P)H: quinone oxidoreductase 1 (NQO1) C609T polymorphism in male current cigarette smokers from the Eastern India
NAD(P)H: quinone oxidoreductase 1 (NQO1) is an endogenous cellular defence mechanism against several carcinogenic quinones derived from cigarette smoke. NQO1 C609T polymorphism is a strong determinant of NQO1 structure and function. The people with mutant allele for this polymorphism has significantly reduced NQO1 activity. In this study, we tried to evaluate the risk of lung cancer as...

Introduction: Pneumonectomy is the standard treatment of lung cancer, even though patients should undergo several evaluations before surgery; deterioration of cardiopulmonary function after pulmonary resection is inevitable. We have evaluated the effects of digoxin on the improvement of right ventricular function and prevention of probable complications after lung resection surgery. Materials a...

Background and Aim: Lung cancer is the most common cause of cancer-related deaths wordwide and non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), especially adenocarcinoma, is the most common type of lung cancer. Most cases of adenocarcinoma will occur due to KRAS mutations or EGFR mutations and amplifications. The polymorphism rs884225 which is associated with increased EGFR expression is located in the 3'UT...
