Background: The characteristics of the cellular kinetic reflect the aggressiveness of the tumors and even their prognosis, many studies proving the correlation between the increased proliferation activity and a poor prognosis in a variety of neoplasms. Aim: The analysis of immunohistochemical Ki-67 expression in 55 patients with gastric cancer, the correlation with clinico-pathological factors ...

conclusions since ki-67 is extensively accepted as an important biomarker in diagnosis, prognosis and treatment of cancerous and precancerous lesions, a high degree of presence of this biomarker in chronic precancerous lesions, such as erosive olp, can be of great use in prognosis and suggested treatments. objectives this study aimed to evaluate ki-67 expression in erosive and non-erosive oral ...

This study investigated expression of proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA), proliferation-associated nuclear antigen (Ki-67) and cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) in tissues of breast invasive ductal carcinoma, and analyzed the correlations between these indexes and X-ray features in mammography. A total of 90 patients who were admitted to Huangshi Central Hospital and diagnosed as breast invasive ...

OBJECTIVES The aim of the study was to correlate the Ki-67 and cyclin A labelling index (LI) with clinical characteristics and risk of recurrence of craniopharyngiomas. METHODS 47 consecutive patients were studied, 21 female and 26 male, aged 34.3 (2.8) years. Immunohistochemical analysis was performed on paraffin wax embedded material using monoclonal antibodies directed against the prolifer...

AIMS To investigate the numbers, morphology, and lineage assignment of Ki-67 positive cells in peripheral blood from normal subjects. METHODS Single and double immunoenzymatic staining procedures, immunoperoxidase, and immunoalkaline phosphatase were used with Ki-67, a monoclonal antibody that recognises a nuclear antigen present in proliferating cells, with markers expressed in B and T lymph...

The proliferation indices (PIs) were determined in 33 meningiomas using two monoclonal antibodies to the Ki-67 antigen (Ki-67 and MIB1). PIs obtained using Ki-67 on frozen material were intermediate between the lowest and highest MIB1 PIs determined in paraffin wax sections. Preoperative embolisation did not influence Ki67 PI, but four of the 15 embolised tumours showed substantially increased ...

Objective: Gastric cancer is one of the most common malignant tumors. Non-inversional tool could improve the diagnosis and treatment of the cancer. The aim of this study was to evaluate the diagnostic value of diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) for histological factors and Ki-67 antigen labelling index (LI) in gastric cancer. Methods: Eight-four DWI images of gastric cancer were analyzed retrospe...

PURPOSE Ki-67 is a nuclear protein that is expressed at all phases of the cell cycle except the resting phase. This study is a clinicopathologic observational case report that aims to report on the cell proliferation rates, as measured by the Ki-67 antigen, in two enucleated retinoblastoma eyes. METHODS One unilateral familial (mother with unilateral disease - patient 1) and one unilateral sp...

The growth arrest-specific 2 (GAS2) was cloned and found to be upregulated in the feces of recurrent CRC patients. This overexpressed GAS2 induced different patterns of gene expressions in CRC cells. Briefly, one cell proliferation marker, Ki-67 antigen (Ki-67), was upregulated in the cells with overexpressed GAS2, "Correlation between proliferation markers: PCNA, Ki-67, MCM-2 and antiapoptotic...
