TR4 Nuclear Receptor Different Roles in Prostate Cancer Progression
Nuclear receptors are important to maintain the tissue homeostasis. Each receptor is tightly controlled and under a very complicated balance. In this review, we summarize the current findings regarding the nuclear receptor TR4 and its role in prostate cancer (PCa) progression. In general, TR4 can inhibit the PCa carcinogenesis. However, when PPARγ is knocked out, activation of TR4 can have an o...
متن کاملPrognostic value of DNA ploidy and nuclear morphometry in prostate cancer treated with androgen deprivation.
OBJECTIVES To assess the prognostic value of flow cytometry and nuclear morphometry in prostate cancer after androgen deprivation treatment. METHODS A total of 127 patients with a prostate cancer diagnosis who had undergone androgen suppression were retrospectively studied. The DNA content by flow cytometry and nuclear morphometry was studied from biopsy specimens. In the patients with Stage ...
متن کاملNuclear Morphometry in African Breast Cancer
Three hundred cases of invasive breast cancer diagnosed between 1983 and 1999 in Calabar, Nigeria were analysed to determine the nuclear morphometric variables, and evaluate the prognostic potential of nuclear morphometry in Nigerian breast cancers. The necessary follow-up was available for 129 patients. The nuclear area was the most valuable variable. In the Nigerian material, the mean nuclear...
متن کاملBiomarkers and prostate cancer progression.
A n international team of researchers believe they may have found, if not the smoking gun, at least a few DNA “bullets” that determine whether prostate cancer will become aggressive. A new biomarker study, which appeared in the Aug. 16, 2011, online edition of Cancer Epidemiology, Biomarkers, and Prevention, identified five inherited genetic variants associated with aggressive prostate cancer. ...
متن کاملRisk Biomarker Assessment for Breast Cancer Progression: Replication Precision of Nuclear Morphometry
Nuclear morphometry is a method for quantitative measurement of histopathologic changes in the appearance of stained cell nuclei. Numerous studies have indicated that these assessments may provide clinically relevant information related to the degree of progression and malignant potential of breast neoplasia. Nuclear features are derived from computerized analysis of digitized microscope images...
