background colorectal cancer (crc) is the second most common malignancy in the world.  however, its mortality rate can be reduced if diagnosed early. p33 ing1b is a tumor suppressor protein, which plays a role in growth control and apoptosis. suppression of p33 ing1b is associated with the loss of cellular growth control. however, p33 ing1b expression in crc and its correlations with clinicopat...

Background: Cancer stem cells (CSCs) are a group of tumor cells with self-renewal property and differentiation potential. CSCs play a crucial role in malignant progression of several types of tumors. However, what is still controversial is the clinicopathological relationship between Nanog marker and its prognostic value in the patients with breast cancer. The expression of Nanog in the patient...

Introduction: Breast cancer is the most common cancer and the leading cause of cancer-related death in women. Clinicopathological variables are important factors in deciding on breast cancer treatment. This study evaluated the association between the recurrence score generated by the Oncotype DX® 21-gene assay and classic clinicopathological variables. Methods: A single-institution retrospect...

background: primary gastric lymphoma (pgl) is an uncommon malignancy with various histological subtypes and treatment outcomes. the aim of this study was to investigate the potential prognostic factors and clinicopathological characteristics of iranian patients with pgl. methods: the clinicopathological characteristics of 60 patients with pgl were retrospectively reviewed from 2001 to 2012. the...

Background: The description on patients with pigmented back patches is rarely reported in the literature. We decided to study the clinicopathological aspects of these patients for reaching a better understanding of this disease.Method: In this study, the clinicopathological aspects and probable responsible factors in the manifestation of posterior pruritic pigmented patches in patients referred...

Early-stage endometrial carcinoma (EC) patients have a high cure rate; however, those with high-risk factors may have poor prognosis. Thus, there is an urgent need for searching for new prognostic molecules to more accurately predict survival of patients. We detected the Rictor mRNA expression level in 30 fresh EC tissue and 17 normal endometrial tissue samples with real-time quantitative RT-PC...

Background & Objective: In Triple-Negative Breast Cancers (TNBCs), estrogen receptor (ER), progesterone receptor (PR) and HER2/neu genes are not expressed. Fibroblastic Growth Factor Receptor-1 (FGFR1) gene product is a protein that acts as a receptor of thyrosin kinase. It plays a role in the proliferation, differentiation, and migration of malignant cells. The objective was t...
