Is the Ki-67 labelling index ready for clinical use?
editorial Is the Ki-67 labelling index ready for clinical use? Cancer is one of the leading causes of death worldwide. Identification of biomarkers that can detect cancer early, monitor disease progression or serve as a surrogate marker for prognosis and prediction will enable us to personalise medicine and improve care of cancer patients. Up to now, the leading parameters that define treatment...
متن کاملClinical Significance of Ki-67 Labeling Index in Pituitary Macroadenoma
The aim of our study was to investigate the correlation of the proliferative activity of pituitary neoplasms with clinical characteristics and recurrences. Tumor specimens were obtained from 44 consecutive patients with pituitary macroadenomas who underwent surgery between July 1998 and August 2003. Specimens were immediately fixed in 10% buffered formalin and then embedded in paraffin. The Ki-...
متن کاملKi-67 labelling index and invasiveness among anterior pituitary adenomas: analysis of 103 cases using the MIB-1 monoclonal antibody.
AIMS To investigate the relation between proliferative activity of anterior pituitary adenomas, quantified by the Ki-67 labelling index, and their invasive behaviour. METHODS Expression of Ki-67 was evaluated in 103 anterior pituitary adenomas consecutively operated on in a 36 month period and correlated with surgical evidence of invasiveness. RESULTS Non-invasive (n = 65) and invasive (n =...
متن کاملAggressive pituitary lesion with a remarkably high Ki-67.
The uncommon aggressive pituitary tumors are named carcinomas when metastases are detected, either in the central nervous system and/or systemically. Some cases are associated with hormonal overproduction, but most are diagnosed because of local symptoms. These neoplasias are generally refractory to current treatments. A 51 year-old woman presented sudden onset of headache, left arm paresis and...
متن کاملInvestigating the Association of IL-17A and IL-17F with Susceptibility to Pre-eclampsia in Iranian Women
Background: Pre-eclampsia (PE) is one of the most important and life-threatening pregnancy disorders that affect at least 3-5% of all pregnancies. Imbalance in helper T cell functions may play a role in predisposing to PE or severity of the disease. Elevated frequencies of Th17 cells in the peripheral blood of PE patients have been reported. Several single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) within ...
