Biliary (hepatic and extrahepatic) intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms and intraductal oncocytic papillary neoplasms/carcinoma are rare neoplasms. Classification of biliary intraductal papillary tumors can be confusing and reports in radiology literature are extremely limited. We describe the first reported case of biliary intraductal oncocytic papillary neoplasms/carcinoma in the liver in...

background: early detection and screening have been successful in reducing mortality in some countries, but not in others. this is most of due to poor management and implementation of inappropriate policies. all of patients with cervical cancer are in developing countries. the effectiveness of screening for cancer of the cervix in these countries is dramatic. it seems that after 50 years pap sm...

results like other cancers, prostate cancer is caused by an accumulation of genetic alterations in a cell that drives it to malignant growth. specific genes and gene alterations have been suggested to play a role in its development and progression. aneuploidy, loss of heterozygosity, gene mutations, hypermethylation and inactivation of specific tumour suppressor genes such as gstpi, apc, mdr1, ...

breast cancer is the most common cause of cancer-related death in female, after lung cancer. angiogenesis is essential for tumor growth and metastasis; therefore, antiangiogenesis strategies for treatment of cancer are currently an issue of interest. the role of vascular endothelial growth factor that assumed to be most potent angiogenesis factor is ambiguous in breast cancer. this study descri...

mirs are 17-25 nucleotide non-coding rnas. these rnas target approximately 80% of protein coding mrnas. mirs control gene expression and altered expression of them affects the development of cancer. mirs can function as tumor suppressor via down-regulation of proto-oncogenes and may function as oncogenes by suppressing tumor suppressors. myeloproliferative neoplasias (formerly known as chronic ...

BACKGROUND Myeloproliferative neoplasms constitute a group of diverse chronic myeloid malignancies that share pathogenic features such as acquired mutations in the JAK2, TET2, CBL and MPL genes. There are recent reports that a JAK2 gene haplotype (GGCC or 46/1) confers susceptibility to JAK2 mutation-positive myeloproliferative neoplasms. The aim of this study was to examine the role of the JAK...
