The incidence of thyroid cancer and its associated morbidity has shown the most rapid increase among all cancers since 1982, but the mechanisms involved in thyroid cancer, particularly significant key genes induced in thyroid cancer, remain undefined. In many studies, gene probes have been used to search for key genes involved in causing and facilitating thyroid cancer. As a result, many possib...
results a total number of 43 specimens were studied, from which 9 were obtained from patients with metastatic prostate cancer. the expression of five examined genes had no correlation with psa level and gleason score. the expression of amacr decreased in metastatic prostate cancer (p = 0.02). the expression of other genes showed no difference between metastatic and non-metastatic tumors (p > 0....
PURPOSE The aim of this study is to identify gene expression signatures that accompany dedifferentiation at the cancer invasion front in colorectal cancer. EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN Two types of colorectal cancer were selected. Both types were well-differentiated adenocarcinomas at the superficial lesion. One type showed a dedifferentiated phenotype at the invasion front (type A, 13 samples); the o...
The problem of interpreting missense mutations of disease-causing genes is an increasingly important one. Because these point mutations result in alteration of only a single amino acid of the protein product, it is often unclear whether this change alone is sufficient to cause disease. We propose a Bayesian approach that utilizes genetic information on affected relatives in families ascertained...
Mutations in the currently known mismatch repair genes cannot explain all cases of hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer (HNPCC), and novel predisposing genes are actively sought. Recently, mutations in the DNA repair gene EXO1 have been implicated in HNPCC. One truncating and several missense changes were observed in familial colorectal cancer (CRC) cases but not in controls. We evaluated ...
aim : to evaluate the association of dnmt1 and mgmt amino acid substitution polymorphisms and colorectal cancer in iranian population. background : the mgmt and dnmt1 are two important methyltransferase enzymes. amino acid substitution polymorphisms in mgmt and dnmt1 genes may be associated with the genetic susceptibility to sporadic colorectal cancer. patients and methods : we assessed eight ...
Colorectal cancer is one of the leading causes cancer-related death worldwide. The adenomatous polyposis coli (APC) gene mutated in hereditary colorectal tumors and more than 80% sporadic tumors. APC mutations impair ?-catenin degradation, to its permanent stabilization increased transcription cancer-driving target genes. In colon cancer, impairment degradation leads cytoplasmic accumulation, n...
Retinoblastoma is a rare type of eye cancer that usually occurs in early childhood, usually before the age of five. This type of cancer occurs in the retina, the light-sensitive tissue behind the eye that recognizes light and color. It is the most common type of eye cancer in children. One-third of all retinoblastomas are inherited, meaning that mutations in the RB1 gene are present in all cell...
Murine retroviruses may cause malignant tumors in mice by insertional mutagenesis of host genes. The use of retroviral tagging as a means of identifying cancer-causing genes has, however, almost entirely been restricted to hematopoietic tumors. The aim of this study was to develop a system allowing for the retroviral tagging of candidate genes in malignant brain tumors. Mouse gliomas were induc...
Breast cancer is the most prevalent malignancy in women throughout the world. Similar to other cancers, a strong relationship between breast cancer and environmental factors such as infectious agents has been reported. Toxoplasma gondii is a protozoan parasite which may play a role in cancer induction. The present study aimed to investigate a possible association between a history of T. gondii ...
