Introduction. Our objective was to identify mutations in the K-RAS gene in cases of pulmonary metastases from colorectal cancer (CRC) and determine whether their presence was a prognostic factor for survival. Methods. We included all patients with pulmonary metastases from CRC operated on between 1998 and 2010. K-RAS mutations were investigated by direct sequencing of DNA. Differences in surviv...
The ras family of proto-oncogenes are upstream mediators of several essential cellular signal transduction pathways involved in cell proliferation and survival. Point mutations of ras oncogenes result in constitutively active Ras and have been shown to be oncogenic. However, ras activation can occur in the absence of ras mutations secondary to upstream receptor activation. The first important s...
INTRODUCTION Pancreatic cancer has not been well studied, especially in developing countries. MATERIALS AND METHODS We studied the variations in genetic mutations in pancreatic adenocarcinoma between Moroccan and Egyptian populations. The molecular pathology of 30 tumors from a large hospital in Casablanca, Morocco were examined and compared with the findings of 44 tumors from the Gharbiah Go...
Mutations in the three closely related RAS genes, HRAS, KRAS, and NRAS are among the most common mutations found in human cancer; reaching 50% in some types of cancer, such as colorectal carcinoma, and 10% in prostate cancers. The activated Ras proteins produced by these mutations can, among other cellular changes, increase vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) production. Moreover, tumors ...
AIM The biology of colorectal hyperplastic polyps is of considerable relevance, because recent evidence suggests that under certain circumstances hyperplastic polyps may be precursors of neoplasms. The aim of this study was to assess and compare the clinical and molecular characteristics of hyperplastic polyps and neoplastic lesions removed from patients without the hyperplastic polyposis syndr...
Adenocarcinoma of the lung obtained at surgical resection was examined for mutation at codons 12, 13, and 61 of the oncogenes K-ras, H-ras, and N-ras, using polymerase chain reaction and oligonucleotide hybridization techniques. The mutation was detected in 18 of the 115 cases (15.7%), and 15 of 18 were at codon 12, 2 were at codon 13 of K-ras, and 1 was at codon 61 of N-ras. G to T transversio...
The SH2 domain-containing protein-tyrosine phosphatase PTPN11 (Shp2) is required for normal development and is an essential component of signaling pathways initiated by growth factors, cytokines, and extracellular matrix. In many of these pathways, Shp2 acts upstream of Ras. About 50% of patients with Noonan syndrome have germ-line PTPN11 gain of function mutations. Associations between Noonan ...
The induction of tumors with chemicals and the production of transgenic animals are two experimental approaches to study oncogene involvement in carcinogenesis. The combination of both strategies offers an excellent model system to study tumor development. This study analyzes the potential cooperation of N-methylnitrosourea (MNU) treatment and N-ras proto-oncogene overexpression in tumorigenesi...
