Tumour Suppressive Function and Modulation of Programmed Cell Death 4 (PDCD4) in Ovarian Cancer
BACKGROUND Programmed cell death 4 (PDCD4), originally identified as the neoplastic transformation inhibitor, was attenuated in various cancer types. Our previous study demonstrated a continuous down-regulation of PDCD4 expression in the sequence of normal-borderline-malignant ovarian tissue samples and a significant correlation of PDCD4 expression with disease-free survival. The objective of t...
متن کاملProgrammed cell death 4 (PDCD4) expression during multistep Barrett's carcinogenesis
AIM To test the contribution of programmed cell death 4 (PDCD4) tumour suppressor gene in Barrett's carcinogenesis. METHODS PDCD4 immunohistochemical expression was assessed in 88 biopsy samples obtained from histologically proven long-segment Barrett's mucosa (BM; 25 non-intestinal columnar metaplasia, 25 intestinal metaplasia (IM), 16 low-grade intraepithelial neoplasia (LG-IEN), 12 high-gr...
متن کاملDown-regulation of programmed cell death 4 (PDCD4) associates with the progression of cervical cancer
Programmed cell death 4 (PDCD4) is a tumor suppressor, and it inhibits tumor progression and metastasis. Even though down-regulation of PDCD4 has been implicated with many different types of human cancers, its roles in the progression of cervical cancer remain unexplored. Here, we have systematically examined the expression pattern of PDCD4 in cervical tissues. 15 cervical normal tissues, 14 ce...
متن کاملProgrammed cell death 4 (PDCD4) suppresses metastastic potential of human hepatocellular carcinoma cells
BACKGROUND Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a lethal malignancy with high rate of metastasis and poor prognosis. There are no effective managements to block metastasis of HCC. Programmed cell death 4 (PDCD4) is found to be a tumor transformation suppressor. Among investigations on effects of PDCD4, little is about the metastatic potentials of HCC cells. This study was to investigate the role o...
متن کاملHelicobacter pylori Promotes Epithelial–Mesenchymal Transition in Gastric Cancer by Downregulating Programmed Cell Death Protein 4 (PDCD4)
Helicobacter pylori, a Gram-negative, microaerophilic bacterium found in the stomach, is assumed to be associated with carcinogenesis, invasion and metastasis in digestive diseases. Cytotoxin-associated gene A (CagA) is an oncogenic protein of H. pylori that is encoded by a Cag pathogenicity island related to the development of gastric cancer. The epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) is the ...
