The prognostic value of the MDM2 gene amplification/expression in many types of cancer remains unclear. Polymorphisms in the promoter region of the MDM2 gene have been shown to alter the protein expression and thus, may play a role in carcinogenesis. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the association between the risk of endometrial cancer and SNP309 polymorphisms in the MDM2 gene. Th...
Endometrial cancer is one of the most common gynecological malignancies affecting post-menopausal women, yet the underlying mechanisms are not well understood. Dystroglycan (DG) is a large glycoprotein, consisting of α- and β-subunits that are non-covalently associated with each other. Modifications to α-DG have been linked to a variety of cancers, where the N-terminus of α-DG (α-DG-N) is post-...
Stearoyl-CoA desaturase 1 (SCD1) is an established molecular target in many primary tumors including breast, lung, pancreatic, colon and hepatocellular carcinomas. However, its potential role in supporting endometrial cancer growth and progression has not yet been determined. In this study, we evaluated the value of SCD1 as a candidate therapeutic target in human endometrial cancer. Compared wi...
Women with germ-line mutations in the mismatch repair genes (responsible for hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer) face an increased risk of colonic and endometrial cancer. However, these germ-line mutations are rare and are responsible for fewer than 1% of endometrial cancers. Therefore, we examined whether or not common variants of the hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer-associated...
Metabolic rearrangements subsequent to malignant transformation are not well characterized in endometrial cancer. Identification of altered metabolites could facilitate imaging-guided diagnosis, treatment surveillance, and help to identify new therapeutic options. Here, we used high-resolution magic angle spinning magnetic resonance mass spectroscopy on endometrial cancer surgical specimens and...
Cluster of differentiation 146 (CD146) is an endothelial cell adhesion molecule which is overexpressed in various types of malignant cancer, including ovarian cancer. However, whether CD146 is overexpressed in another two types of gynecological cancer, cervical cancer and endometrial cancer, remains unclear. In the present study, we showed that CD146 expression levels were higher in cells from ...
High rates of aerobic glycolysis represent a key mechanism by which endometrial cancer cells consume glucose as its primary energy source. The up-regulated glycolytic pathway is a common therapeutic target whose inhibition has implications for anti-tumor activity in cancer cells. The present study was aimed at evaluating the potential of a novel lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) inhibitor, Galloflavi...
BACKGROUND This study evaluated tumor characteristics and survival in women with breast cancer who subsequently developed uterine cancer. METHODS Information about endometrial cancer in tamoxifen users following breast cancer refered to the gynecologic oncology clinic of Vali-Asr hospital between 1997-2007 was evaluated. RESULTS Among 330 patients with endometrial cancer, 5 were in women pr...
BACKGROUND Endometrial cancer incidence is continuing to rise in the wake of the current ageing and obesity epidemics. Much of the risk for endometrial cancer development is influenced by the environment and lifestyle. Accumulating evidence suggests that the epigenome serves as the interface between the genome and the environment and that hypermethylation of stem cell polycomb group target gene...
Long-term application of Tamoxifen (TAM) is usually recommended for hormone receptor positive breast cancer patients. Unfortunately, TAM will inevitably increase the incidence of endometrial hyperplasia even endometrial cancer. Despite of substantial investigations, no effective approaches to prevent TAM-induced endometrial carcinogenesis have been acknowledged. In this study, we found that inh...
