materials and methods an oligogearray® (an oligonucleotide-based gene expression array platform) containing 126 wnt signaling pathway-related genes was used to compare gene expressions between primary hcc and adjacent non-tumorous liver tissues from 10 patients with hcc. selected differential genes were identified with real-time rt-pcr and immunohistochemistry (ihc). in particular, the protein ...

background: salivary gland tumors (sgt) are rare lesions with uncertain histopathology. one of the major signaling pathways that participate in the development of several tumors is protein kinase a. in this pathway, glycogen synthase kinase β (gsk3β) and camp responsive element binding protein (creb3) are two genes which are supposed to be down regulated in most human tumors. the expression lev...

Objective(s): The purpose of this study was to conduct a meta-analysis on human microRNAs (miRNAs) expression data of endometriosis tissue profiles versus those of normal controls and to identify novel putative diagnostic markers. Materials andMethods: PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, Ovid Medline were used to search for endometriosis miRNA expression profiling studies of endometriosis. The miRN...

objective(s): the purpose of this study was to conduct a meta-analysis on human micrornas (mirnas) expression data of endometriosis tissue profiles versus those of normal controls and to identify novel putative diagnostic markers. materials andmethods: pubmed, embase, web of science, ovid medline were used to search for endometriosis mirna expression profiling studies of endometriosis. the mirn...

gene expression profiling of ovarian carcinoma tissues has shown an increase of four-fold expression of sort1 gene. sortilin 1 (ntr-3) is a 95-100 kda protein normally expressed in heart, brain, placenta, skeletal muscle, spinal cord, thyroid, and testis. however, its expression has never been reported in normal ovary. here, we report expression of sortilin 1 in ovarian carcinoma tissues both a...

Background and Purpose: The frequency of opportunistic fungal infections in immunocompromised patients, especially by Candida species, has sharply increased in the last few decades. The objective of this study was to analyse the ergosterol content and gene expression profiling of clinical isolates of fluconazole resistant Candida albicans. Materials and Methods: Sixty clinical samples were ide...

Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) identified effective in many diseases. One of which is neurodegenerative diseases including Alzheimer disease (AD). In this study gross alteration of gene expression in AD mice by ibuprofen treatment is investigated via Protein-protein interaction network (PPI) analysis. Expression profiling of microarray dataset GSE67306 was retrieved from GEO dat...

background : lung cancer is still the leading cause of cancer- related deaths and most of themâ  are normally diagnosed in late stages, so there is an urgent need to establish reliable tools for the identification at early stages of the disease. in this study, we use an eleven gene signature test to examine lung biopsy specimens for diagnostic, prognostic & therapeutic purposes. methods : bronc...
