Expression of P33ING1b Protein in Colorectal Cancer

BACKGROUND Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the second most common malignancy in the world. However, its mortality rate can be reduced if diagnosed early. P33ING1b is a tumor suppressor protein, which plays a role in growth control and apoptosis. Suppression of p33(ING1b) is associated with the loss of cellular growth control. However, p33 (ING1b) expression in CRC and its correlations with clinicopa...

Association of CD166 expression with clinicopathologic characteristics of colorectal cancer

Expression of Anaplastic Lymphoma Kinase Protein in Human Breast Cancer

Background & Objectives: Anaplastic lymphoma Kinase (ALK) is a receptor tyrosine kinase involved in the genesis of several human cancers. ALK was initially identified because of its involvement in anaplastic large cell lymphoma (ALCL). ALK is believed to foster tumorigenesis following activation by autocrine and/or paracrine growth loops. Studies reveal that the presence of anti-ALK antibodies ...

Study of FGF14 gene expression and cancer progression in colorectal cancer tissue samples

Background: Colorectal cancer is one of the main causes of cancer death and the third most common malignant cancer worldwide. FGF14 is a member of the large family of fibroblast growth factors. These factors control a wide range of biological functions, including cell proliferation, survival, migration and differentiation that disturbing their expression can lead to cancer. The purpose of this ...

Expression of Aldehyde Dehydrogenase 1 in Patients with Colorectal Cancer in North of Iran

Background and purpose: High cancer related mortality can be due to the presence of cancer stem cells (CSCs). Studies suggest aldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH1) as a marker of CSCs. The aim of this study was to investigate its expression in colorectal cancer and also its association with clinicopathologic characteristics. Materials and methods: In a retrospective study, patients with colorectal ca...

Evaluation of Expression of EGFR, HER-2 and COX-2 in Colorectal Cancer

Background and objective: EGFR and HER-2 are two members of ERbB/HER family of Type I Transmembrane growth factor receptors. Cox2 is an enzyme responsible for the conversion of arachidonic acid to prostaglandins, which has a major role in angiogenesis and can modelate tumor growth. The aim of this study was to determine the level of expression of EGFR, HER-2 and Cox2 in colorectd cancer. Mater...
