N-acetylglucosaminyltransferase V (GnT-V) is an enzyme that catalyzes beta1-6 branching of N-acetylglucosamine (GlcNAc) on asparagine-linked oligosaccharides of cell proteins. The present study aimed to investigate GnT-V expression and its prognostic significance in epithelial ovarian cancer. GnT-V expression was studied by immunohistochemistry in 83 surgically resected ovarian cancers, and the...

Upon cultivation of various human ovarian cancer, a successful establish ment was made on a long term continuous culture of the papillary serous cystadenocarcinoma. This new cell line was named human ovarian cancertwenty-one (HOC-21). The material obtained from an ovarian cancer on the left side of a 56 year-old woman, was placed into culture on September 22, 1971. A favorable growth has been r...

CONTEXT Malignant mixed Mullerian tumors are rare ovarian neoplasms that account for less than 2% of ovarian malignancies. They have a generally poor prognosis and often develop recurrent disease. To our knowledge, this is the first report of a malignant mixed Mullerian tumor with metastasis to the pancreas. The metastatic tumor was identified by endoscopic ultrasound guided fine needle aspirat...

From December 2000 until 2010, the researchers at Royan Institute conducted a wide range of investigations on ovarian tissue cryopreservation with the intent to provide fertility pres- ervation to cancer patients that were considered to be candidates for these services. In 2010, Royan Institute established the Royan Human Ovarian Tissue Bank as a subgroup of the Embryology Department. Since its...
