Two-dimensional gel electrophoresis and liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry were performed to investigate the influence of human nonmetastatic clone 23 type 1 (nm23-H1), a metastasis-associated gene on proteomic alterations in cancer cells of the uterine cervix. It was validated by RT-PCR and Western blot analysis. The expression of voltage-dependent anion channel 1 (VDAC1) was incre...

Typical bronchial carcinoids are usually considered fairly benign tumors. Metastases do however occur, and up to 10% of the patients ultimately die from their disease. To identify prognostic markers, we immunostained 43 typical bronchial carcinoids with antibodies against 8 possibly relevant hormones, oncogenes, tumor suppressor genes, adhesion molecules, and proliferation markers. Altogether 1...
