objective: periapical granulomas (pgs) and radicular cysts (rcs), as the most common odontogenic lesions have yet unclear pathogenesis. this study was aimed to compare pcna and ki-67 expression in pgs and rcs and evaluate their possible relationship with two lesions. methods: in this cross-sectional descriptive study, twenty pgs and twenty rcs were evaluated immunohistochemically using an anti-...

OBJECTIVES Ki-67 is expressed in the nuclei of dividing cells and can be used to assess proliferation of synovial inflammatory and stromal cells. We evaluated subintimal Ki-67+ cell density as a tissue biomarker for inflammatory arthropathies and compared it to subintimal CD68, a synovial biomarker of RA. METHODS Subintimal Ki-67+ and CD68+ cell densities were measured immunohistochemically i...

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 ...

STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEM Squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) is the most frequent oral cancer whose 5-year survival rate is 80% for early-detected lesions and nearly 30-50% for advanced lesions. Early detection of oral cancers and precancerous lesions can improve the patient's survival and decrease the morbidity. PURPOSE This study aimed to evaluate and compare the Ki-67 and MCM3 expression in cyto...

The current World Health Organization (WHO) classification of human gliomas is mainly based on morphology. However, it has limitations in prognostic prediction. We examined whether combining isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH) 1/2 mutation status with the Ki-67 labeling index would improve the definition of prognostically distinct entities. We investigated the correlation of Ki-67 expression with ID...

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 expression of the Ki-67 antigen using the monoclonal antibody MIB1 in 61 patients with gastric cancer, ...

Ki-67 (MKI67) is a marker of cellular proliferation of cancer. Here, we show that Ki-67 is post-transcriptionally regulated through alternative polyadenylation (APA) and microRNAs in breast cancer. We show that shortening of the Ki-67 3'UTR results in the loss of the binding sites for the suppressive miRNAs and thus renders the transcript with a shortened 3'UTR insusceptible to miRNA-mediated s...

Overexpression of p53 is the most frequent genetic alteration in breast cancer. Recently, many studies have shown that the expression of mutant p53 differs for each subtype of breast cancer and is associated with different prognoses. In this study, we aimed to determine the suitable cut-off value to predict the clinical outcome of p53 overexpression and its usefulness as a prognostic factor in ...

Ki-67 protein is a cellular marker for proliferation. The role of Ki-67 as a prognostic biomarker has not been established in gastric cancer. The present study was performed to investigate the significance of Ki-67 expression as a biomarker in early gastric cancer (EGC).With tissue microarray for 320 patients with gastric cancer, we performed immunohistochemical staining for Ki-67. Its clinical...

OBJECTIVE This study was performed to determine the clinical significance of the Ki-67 labeling index (LI) for local control (LC) in patients with World Health Organization (WHO) grade II meningioma. We also tried to discern the effect of postoperative radiotherapy (PORT) on LC depending upon the Ki-67 LI value. MATERIALS AND METHODS The medical records and values of Ki-67 LIs were retrospect...
