Increased expression of high mobility group protein I(Y) in high grade prostatic cancer determined by in situ hybridization.
In a previous study using the Dunning rat prostate cancer model, we found high mobility group protein I-(Y) [HMG-I(Y)] to be overexpressed in metastatic tumor lines when compared to nonmetastatic lines. Hence, overexpression of this 12-kDa non-histone chromosomal protein may be associated with tumor progression. Firstly, by Northern analysis we showed that HMG-I(Y) expression increases in high ...
متن کاملEvaluation of Plasma Interleukin-8 Concentration in Patients with Prostate Cancer and Benign Prostate Hyperplasia
Background: Prostate specific antigen (PSA) has been used as a screening test for the early detection of prostate cancer (PC) for many years. Although the introduction of PSA test led to a considerable increase in reported prostate cancer cases, there is still some controversy over the sensitivity and specificity of this marker in distinguishing PC patients from those with benign prostate hyper...
متن کاملThe Expression of the High Mobility Group I(Y) mRNA in Thyroid Cancers: Useful Tool of Differential Diagnosis of Thyroid Nodules
OBJECTIVE Thyroid nodule is frequent and occurs in about 5% of the general population. In contrast, thyroid cancer is much less frequent and occurs in about 5-10% of thyroid nodules. Distinguishing between benign and malignant lesions is an important task that is best accomplished by fine needle aspiration. Recently, Chiappetta et al. reported that the expression of the high mobility group (HMG...
متن کاملExpression profiling in hepatocellular carcinoma with intrahepatic metastasis: identification of high-mobility group I(Y) protein as a molecular marker of hepatocellular carcinoma metastasis.
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is one of the most common and aggressive human malignancies. Its high mortality rate is mainly a result of intra-hepatic metastases. To investigate the detailed genetic mechanisms in cancer metastasis, we compared the expression profiles of 20 HCCs with intrahepatic metastasis and 10 HCCs without intrahepatic metastasis using an oligonucleotide array. Of the appro...
متن کاملHMG-I(Y) recognizes base-unpairing regions of matrix attachment sequences and its increased expression is directly linked to metastatic breast cancer phenotype.
Base-unpairing regions (BURs) contain a specialized DNA context with an exceptionally high unwinding propensity, and are typically identified within various matrix attachment regions. A BUR affinity column was used to purify a doublet of Mr 20,000 proteins from human breast carcinoma cells. These proteins were identified as the high-mobility group (HMG) protein, HMG-I, and its splicing variant,...
