Cyclo-oxygenase-2 over-expression is associated with human esophageal squamous cell carcinoma.
Cyclo-oxygenase (COX)-2 is not usually detectable in normal tissues but is induced in inflammation and carcinogenesis. The level of COX-2 is elevated in cancer tissues of the colon, bladder, and skin. In the esophagus, squamous cell carcinoma and adenocarcinoma are known to express COX-2. The purpose of this study was to clarify the association of COX-2 expression with clinicopathological facto...
متن کاملThe Level of Mesenchymal-Epithelial Transition Autophosphorylation is Correlated with Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma Migration
Background: The MET receptor is a critical member of cancer-associated RTKs and plays an important role in different biological activities, including differentiation, migration, and cell proliferation. Methods: In this study, novel MET inhibitors were introduced and applied on esophageal squamous carcinoma cell line KYSE-30, and the level of proliferation and migration, as well as the activated...
متن کاملCyclo-oxygenase 2 expression is associated with angiogenesis and lymph node metastasis in human breast cancer.
AIMS Cyclo-oxygenases 1 and 2 (COX-1 and COX-2) are key enzymes in prostaglandin biosynthesis. COX-2 is induced by a wide variety of stimuli, and present during inflammation. COX-2 overexpression has been observed in colon, head and neck, lung, prostate, stomach, and breast cancer. In colon and gastric cancer, COX-2 expression was associated with angiogenesis. The aim of this study was to deter...

Telomerase activation is one of the main pathways to immortalize cancer cells. In many kinds of cancer cells, this special reverse transcriptase stabilizes and elongates telomeres and prevents telomere erosion that naturally occurs in every cell division. Esophageal cancer is the fifth most frequent cause of cancer death worldwide, and is highly associated with alcohol, smoking, cultural ha...
