Targeted approaches have revealed frequent epigenetic alterations in ovarian cancer, but the scope and relation of these changes to histologic subtype of disease is unclear. Genome-wide methylation and expression data for 14 clear cell carcinoma (CCC), 32 non-CCC and four corresponding normal cell lines were generated to determine how methylation profiles differ between cells of different histo...

Let I be an ideal of subsets of a Polish space X, containing all singletons and possessing a Borel basis. Assuming that I does not satisfy ccc, we consider the following conditions (B), (M) and (D). Condition (B) states that there is a disjoint family F ⊆ P (X) of size c, consisting of Borel sets which are not in I . Condition (M) states that there is a Borel function f : X → X with f[{x}] / ∈ ...

OBJECTIVES To compare the clinicopathologic features and prognosis of Chinese patients with ovarian clear cell carcinoma (CCC) and serous carcinoma (SC). METHODS A retrospective cohort study was designed to investigate the clinicopathologic characteristic and prognosis of patients with CCC and SC who were diagnosed and treated in in a tertiary referral center (Peking Union Medical College Hos...

Endoscopic and video-endoscopic visual acuity and color discrimination were investigated using a standard disk for testing visual acuity and a color discrimination test. A 1-chip-CCD-Camera (CCC) or 3-chip-CCD-Camera plus digital image processing (digivideo) on the endoscope and a 15 inch high resolution video monitor were used. Color discrimination was investigated by comparing the ability to ...

This study assessed the effects of Coprinus comatus cap (CCC) on adipogenesis in 3T3-L1 adipocytes and the effects of CCC on the development of diet-induced obesity in rats. Here, we showed that the CCC has an inhibitory effect on the adipocyte differentiation of 3T3-L1 cells, resulting in a significant decrease in lipid accumulation through the downregulation of several adipocyte specific-tran...

epithelial ovarian cancer (eoc) consists of four major subtypes: clear cell carcinoma (ccc), endometrioid adenocarcinoma (ea), mucinous adenocarcinoma (Ma) and serous adenocarcinoma (Sa). relative to the other subtypes, the prognosis of ccc is poor due to a high recurrence rate and chemotherapy resistance, but ccc-specific biomarkers have yet to be identified. With the aim of identifying diagno...

Clear cell carcinomas (CCC) is one of the rarest forms of endometrial carcinoma. In one series of 852 consecutive endometrial carcinomas managed at a single academic center, only 3 (0.35%) were considered to be CCC (1). Although CCC is rare, it features frequently in the differential diagnosis of endometrial neoplasms, primarily because one of the morphologic features of CCC the presence of cle...

AIM Coronary collateral circulation (CCC) is crucial during an acute ischemic attack. Evidences showed that omentin-1 exhibited remarkable antiatherogenic effects and ischemia-induced revascularization. The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between plasma omentin-1 levels and CCC in patients with ≥90% angiography-proven coronary occlusion. METHODS 142 patients with ≥90% lu...
