Prognostic significance of PCNA grade in malignant melanoma.
Proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) grade (a semi-quantitative assessment of the entire tumor profile) and estimation whether PCNA grade is low (0-50% positive cells) or high (51-100% positive cells) has been demonstrated to be of prognostic significance in gastric carcinoma. Sixteen vertical growth phase melanomas with 8 or more years of clinical follow-up were reacted with antibody to P...
متن کاملPrognostic significance of LKB1 promoter methylation in cutaneous malignant melanoma
Liver kinase B1 (LKB1) loss is a common occurrence in various types of human cancer, and promoter methylation has been hypothesized to be a major mechanism of LKB1 inactivation. The association between LKB1 gene promoter methylation status and tumor progression in cutaneous malignant melanoma (CMM) remains unknown. In the present study, the methylation status of the LKB1 promoter region was exa...
متن کاملPrognostic significance of PCNA expression in laryngeal cancer.
OBJECTIVE To assess the prognostic value of proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) in laryngeal carcinoma and its relation with other known prognostic clinicopathologic variables. DESIGN A retrospective cohort study of 92 patients chosen randomly from patients treated between 1964 and 1993 with the diagnosis of laryngeal cancer. Prognostic factors including PCNA expression, grade, lymphova...
متن کاملCytoplasmic accumulation of NCoR in malignant melanoma: consequences of altered gene repression and prognostic significance
Invasive malignant melanoma (MM) is an aggressive tumor with no curative therapy available in advanced stages. Nuclear corepressor (NCoR) is an essential regulator of gene transcription, and its function has been found deregulated in different types of cancer. In colorectal cancer cells, loss of nuclear NCoR is induced by Inhibitor of kappa B kinase (IKK) through the phosphorylation of specific...
متن کاملPrognostic significance of cadherin-based adhesion molecules in cutaneous malignant melanoma.
BACKGROUND The need for novel molecular prognostic markers that can supplement validated clinicopathologic correlates for cutaneous malignant melanoma is well recognized. Proteins that mediate the epithelial-mesenchymal transition, the process by which a cancer cell disengages from its parent tumor, are important candidates. METHODS The prognostic relevance of E-cadherin, N-cadherin, and P-ca...
