Background: Breast cancer is the second leading cause of death in women developing countries. The activity Warburg and Reverse-Warburg effects on breast reflected by expression patterns two molecules, namely caveolin-1 Monocarboxylate Transporter-4 (MCT-4). MCT-4 a transmembrane transport protein that transports lactate from cytoplasm to intercellular fluid.Method: This cross-sectional analytic...

Abstract Introduction La classification moléculaire des cancers du sein basée sur l'expression génique puis sur le profil protéique a permis de distinguer cinq groupes moléculaires: luminal A, luminal B, Her2/neu, basal-like et non-classées. L'objectif de cette étude réalisée au CHU Hassan II de Fès est de classer 335 cancers du sein infiltrant en groupes moléculaires, puis de les corréler avec...

Breast cancer is a heterogeneous disease that can be subdivided into clinical, histopathological and molecular subtypes (luminal A-like, luminal B-like/HER2-negative, luminal B-like/HER2-positive, HER2-positive, and triple-negative). The study of new molecular factors is essential to obtain further insights into the mechanisms involved in the tumorigenesis of each tumor subtype. RASSF2 is a gen...

AIMS AND BACKGROUND Based on estrogen receptor (ER), progesterone receptor (PgR) and Her2/neu (HER2) expression, four breast cancer subtypes have been distinguished: luminal A (ER and/or PgR/HER2-, Ki67 <14%), luminal B (ER and/or PgR/HER2-, Ki67 ≥14% or ER and/or PgR/HER2), triple-negative (ER-/PgR-/HER2-), and HER2 (ER-/PgR-/HER2). Our aim was to evaluate the prognosis of these phenotypes in ...

AIMS Lipoproteins and lipids, especially lipoprotein(a), have been studied as risk factors for restenosis after coronary angioplasty with conflicting results. We investigated the association between serum levels of lipoprotein(a) apolipoprotein A-1, apolipoprotein B-100, total-cholesterol, high density lipoprotein-cholesterol, triglycerides, and coronary luminal loss and restenosis after angiop...

BACKGROUND Increased rectal luminal lactate concentration may be associated with the severity of the septic shock and high dose of vasopressors. It suggests hypoperfusion of the gut mucosa. This is potentially associated with bacterial translocation from the gut leading to local and systemic inflammation. In acute pancreatitis (AP) bacterial translocation is considered as the key event leading ...

Glucose is an important stimulus for glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) secretion, but the mechanisms of secretion have not been investigated in integrated physiological models. We studied glucose-stimulated GLP-1 secretion from isolated perfused rat small intestine. Luminal glucose (5% and 20% w/v) stimulated the secretion dose dependently, but vascular glucose was without significant effect at 5...

P2 membrane receptors are specifically activated by extracellular nucleotides like ATP, ADP, UTP, and UDP. P2 receptors are subdivided into metabotropic P2Y and ionotropic P2X receptors. They are expressed in all tissues and induce a variety of biological effects. In epithelia, they are found in both the basolateral and the luminal membranes. Their widespread luminal expression in nearly all tr...

background: the up-regulation of galectin-3, galectin-9, and galectin-15 expression in the luminal and glandular epithelium was reported in preparation of the endometrium for embryo implantation at the midlutheal phase. however, no data was available regarding the expression and the distribution pattern of galectin-8 in the human endometrium during a regular menstrual cycle. objective: the curr...
