RAS mutations in preleukaemias.
Activated ras genes have been implicated in a wide variety of neoplasms [2]. N-ras in particular has been shown to be involved in acute myelogenous leukaemia (AML) with activating mutations around codons 12/13 and 61 [3, 7]. The myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) are a group of preleukaemias, a proportion of which will develop AML. Hirai et al. [9] described three MDS patients with N-ras mutations...
متن کاملPrevalence of K-RAS mutations and CA125 tumor marker in patients with ovarian carcinoma
Background: Ovarian carcinoma is one of the leading causes of cancer-related death among females. K-ras codon 12 mutations are commonly occurring mutations in different types of cancers and leads to resistance against anti-EGFR therapeutics. Hence, determination of mutations in k-ras gene is crucial for predicting response to anti-EGFR therapies. This study aimed to evaluate the prevalence of k...
متن کاملRAS Mutations in AUS/FLUS Cytology: Does it Have an Additional Role in BRAFV600E Mutation-Negative Nodules?
The object of this study is to evaluate the additional role of RAS mutation in detecting thyroid malignancy among BRAF mutation-negative nodules diagnosed as atypia of undetermined significance/follicular lesion of undetermined significance (AUS/FLUS) on cytology.From December 2009 to December 2011, 202 BRAF mutation-negative thyroid nodules diagnosed as AUS/FLUS cytology in 201 patients were i...
متن کاملRas oncogene mutations in childhood brain tumors.
Although N-nitroso compounds (NNC) are ubiquitous in the human environment and are known neurocarcinogens in animal models, results of epidemiological studies have not yet convincingly associated NNCs with brain tumor occurrence in humans. Animal studies have suggested that specific codons (12, 13, and 61) in the ras family are mutable by exposure to NNCs. The purpose of this study was to measu...
متن کاملActivating FGFR2-RAS-BRAF mutations in ameloblastoma.
PURPOSE Ameloblastoma is an odontogenic neoplasm whose overall mutational landscape has not been well characterized. We sought to characterize pathogenic mutations in ameloblastoma and their clinical and functional significance with an emphasis on the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathway. EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN A total of 84 ameloblastomas and 40 non-ameloblastoma odontogenic tumors w...
