Background/Aim: Limited data exist on the expression pattern of TNFAIP3/A20, as assayed by immunohistochemistry (IHC), in breast cancer tissues. This study aimed to assess A20 cancer. Materials and Methods: The was analysed using IHC 50 cases retrieved from Sharjah Breast Cancer Center at University Hospital Sharjah, United Arab Emirates. Omics survival were also used analyse its association wi...

background: cancer/testis antigens (ctas) are members of a group of proteins which are normally expressed in testis germ cells and to a lesser extent in the ovaries. because of recent reports about their aberrant and specific expression in some tumoral tissues, they may play a role as new candidates for targeted therapy. therefore, the study of the expression pattern of these biomarkers and its...

the present research is a field study in order to investigate scale and ways of doing breast self examination (bse). 270 nurses employed by the medical sciences university’s hospitals related to the ministry of health, and medical education in city of tehran are selected and involved in research on the basis of simple random sampling. the data collection tool was a protrayed questionnaire which...

Objective(s): Breast cancer is a fatal disease and the leading cause of mortality in women. Radiofrequency hyperthermia is an approach to the treatment of cancer cells through increasing their temperature. The present study aimed to investigate breast tumor ablation via radiofrequency hyperthermia in the presence and non-presence states of magnetite nanoparticles and assess the effects of magne...

Inflammatory breast cancer is a rapidly growing, distinct form of locally advanced breast cancer that carries a guarded prognosis. To identify the genes that contribute to this aggressive phenotype, we compared under- and overexpressed sequences in an inflammatory breast tumor cell line with those of actively replicating normal human mammary epithelial cell lines using differential display. Of ...

ABSTRACT Background: Coherent scattering leads to diffraction effects and especially constructive interferences. Theseinterferences carry some information about the molecular structure of the tissue. As breast cancer isthe most widespread cancer in women, this project evaluated the application of small angleX-ray scattering (SAXS) for differentiation between normal and cancerous breast tissues....

Background & Objective: Malignant breast tumors, which are one of the most important deadly cancers in women, like many other cancers, are proposed to be related to viruses etiologically. Proper management of breast carcinoma necessitates an identification of the etiological factors. Human Papillomavirus is considered to have an etiological role in breast carcinoma. We...

background: breast cancer is the most common cancer in women. non-coding rnasespecially mirnas have important regulatory roles in cancer. mirnas are 21-24 nucleotides which have different levels of expression between tumors and normal tissues. in this study, we have analyzed expression level of mir-520d in three different groups of breast cancer. methods: fifty nine samples were divided into di...

introduction: caveolin-1 (cav-1) is a scaffolding protein found in special structures of plasma membrane, known as caveolae. cav-1 can regulate many intracellular processes, including signal transmission and cholesterol metabolism. this protein plays an important role in the growth and differentiation of breast tissue and acts as a tumor suppressor gene as well. the aim of this study was to det...

High-resolution melting (HRM) analysis is a novel tool for analysis of promoter methylation. The aim of the present study was to establish and validate HRM analysis for detection of promoter methylation on archival formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded tissues from colorectal cancer patients. We first evaluated HRM assays for O(6)-methylguanine-DNA methyltransferase (MGMT) and adenomatous polyposis ...
