increment. it is categorized based on genetic aberrations. some of these genetic disorders can determine minimal residual diseases (mrd) and prognosis of aml patients. wilms tumor (wt1) over expression is found in aml patients. the aim of this study was to determine the frequency of wt1 over expression in aml pediatric cases in north -east of iran. materials and methods: this retrospective stud...

  Background and Objectives: Adenoid cystic carcinoma (ACC), the most common malignant tumor of submandibular and minor salivary glands, is characterized by a high rate of local recurrence and distant hematogenous metastasis and tendency to invade peripheral nerves. In spite of radiotherapy and surgical treatment, the long-term prognosis is dismal. Today, many studies are being conducted using...

background and aims: influenza a virus of orthomyxoviridae family is able to create pandemic influenza. vaccination is the most effective way to prevent influenza virus infection. matrix protein 2 (m2) is a homotetramer ion channel with 97 amino acids length and highly conserved among influenza viruses and is considered for development of a universal influenza vaccine. materials and methods: we...

conclusions dlec1 suppresses tumor cell growth the presence of ap-2α2 and stimulates cell proliferation in the down-regulation of ap-2α2 in dlec1 over-expression stable clones of htc116. results the dlec1 over-expression was found to reduce the number of colonies in colony formation and to induce g1 arrest in seven clones, and apoptosis in one clone in the cell cycle analysis. furthermore, rega...

Background: Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is one of myeloid malignancies which the risk increases with age increment. It is categorized based on genetic aberrations. Some of these genetic disorders can determine minimal residual diseases (MRD) and prognosis of AML patients. Wilms tumor (WT1) over expression is found in AML patients. The aim of this study was to determine the frequency of WT1 ove...

We studied the expression of human growth hormone (hGH) in E. coli under a bacteriophage T5-base promoter in a pQE30 expression vector. For an efficient expression of hGH cDNA, a number of codons at the hGH N-terminal coding region were altered based on the E. coli major codons. An over-expression of hGH in the bacteria, carrying the recombinant plasmids, was observed at 37°C in the presence of...

  Background and Objective: Esophageal cancer especially squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) is one of the most common gastro intestinal malignancies in north part of Iran (Khorasan). The standard treatment for esophageal cancer is surgical resection, but its outcome remains poor. Then, the oncologists try to treat this cancer with sandwich protocols especially neo-adjuvant chemo-radiotherapy. Sever...

Background & Objective: In Triple-Negative Breast Cancers (TNBCs), estrogen receptor (ER), progesterone receptor (PR) and HER2/neu genes are not expressed. Fibroblastic Growth Factor Receptor-1 (FGFR1) gene product is a protein that acts as a receptor of thyrosin kinase. It plays a role in the proliferation, differentiation, and migration of malignant cells. The objective was t...
