N-ras Gene Mutations in Kashmiri Urothelial Cell Carcinomas
Urinary bladder (or bladder) cancer is one of the most common cancers worldwide, with the highest incidences in industrialized countries (Pelucchi et al 2006). It is the fourth most incident cancer in males and ninth most in females accounting for more than 67,000 new cases per year in United States (Jemal et al 2007), where the annual age adjusted incidence rate for men is approximately 32 per...
متن کاملRelationships among MTHFR a1298c gene polymorphisms and methylation status of Dact1 gene in transitional cell carcinomas.
OBJECTIVES The purpose of this study was to determine the relationship between methylation status of the Dact1 gene and MTHFR a1298c polymorphic forms in transitional cell carcinoma tissues in a Chinese population. METHODS Polymorphisms of folate metabolism enzyme gene MTHFR were assessed by restrictive fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) methods and PCR-based DNA methylation analysis was use...
متن کاملConsistent absence of BRAF mutations in salivary gland carcinomas
Introduction: Malignant salivary gland tumors are rare entities. Despite advances in surgery, radiation therapy and chemotherapy, the rate of the mortality and five-year survival has not been improved markedly over the last few decades. The activation of EGFR- RAS-RAF signaling pathway contributes to the initiation and progression of many human cancers, promising a key pathway for therapeutic m...
متن کاملAlterations of Fas (APO-1/CD95) gene in transitional cell carcinomas of urinary bladder.
Fas (Apo-1/CD95) is a cell-surface receptor involved in cell death signaling. The key role of the Fas system in negative growth regulation has been studied mostly within the immune system, and somatic mutations of Fas in cancer patients have been described solely in lymphoid-lineage malignancies. We analyzed somatic mutations and loss of heterozygosity of Fas gene in 43 transitional cell carcin...
متن کاملColorectal carcinomas and PTEN/MMAC1 gene mutations.
PURPOSE PTEN/MMAC1/TEP1 is a tumor suppressor gene encoding a dual-specificity protein phosphatase with homology to the cytoskeleton proteins, chicken tensin and bovine auxilin. PTEN mutations have been described in several types of human cancer. Recently, mutations at an (A)(6) repeat of PTEN exons 7 and 8 in colorectal cancer (CRC) patients with microsatellite instability have been detected. ...
