BsmI, TaqI, ApaI and FokI polymorphisms in the vitamin D receptor (VDR) gene and the risk of osteoporosis: A meta-analysis
(2006)
A meta-analysis regarding BsmI, TaqI, ApaI and FokI polymorphisms in the vitamin D receptor (VDR) gene and their associations with osteoporosis in females is reported. The meta-analysis involved 14, seven, seven and three ...
On the mechanism of phenotypic conversion of human cervical adenocarcinoma HeLa cells surviving infection by influenza B virus: Potential implications for biological management of adenocarcinomas
(2008)
We infected HeLa cells with low (10(-9) units), medium (10(-6) units), and high (10(-2) units) influenza B titers and compared the resulting human papilloma virus (HPV), retinoic acid receptor a subunit (RAR alpha) and ...
Synergy of leptin/STAT3 with HER2 receptor induces tamoxifen resistance in breast cancer cells through regulation of apoptosis-related genes
(2015)
Tamoxifen is a major treatment modality for estrogen receptor positive breast cancer, but the occurrence of resistance remains a problem. Recently, obesity-related leptin has been found to interfere with tamoxifen in breast ...
p53 and Cyclooxygenase-2 Expression are Directly Associated with Cyclin D1 Expression in Radical Prostatectomy Specimens of Patients with Hormone-Naive Prostate Cancer
(2012)
Prostate cancer (PCa) is a potentially curable disease when diagnosed in early stages and subsequently treated with radical prostatectomy (RP). However, a significant proportion of patients tend to relapse early, with the ...
Association of allelic loss at the FHIT locus and p53 alterations with tumour kinetics and chromosomal instability in non-small cell lung carcinomas (NSCLCs)
(2001)
The FHIT gene, located at the FRA3B fragile site of chromosome 3p14.2, encodes a 16.8 kD homologue of the yeast enzyme diadenosine tetraphosphate (Ap(4)A) hydrolase, Frequent allelic losses at this region in various ...
Expression of p53 protein in T- and natural killer-cell lymphomas is associated with some clinicopathologic entities but rarely related to p53 mutations
(2001)
To determine if p53 abnormalities could be involved in the pathogenesis of T- or natural killer (NK)-cell lymphomas, we investigated 51 cases of these lymphomas for the expression of p53 and its relationship with p53 gene ...
Neuroblastoma cells negative for CD44 possess tumor-initiating properties
(2011)
CD44 has been linked to favorable prognosis in neuroblastoma and in the present study we investigate if it can be used to prospectively isolate neuroblastoma-initiating cells. To define the cancer-initiating properties of ...
Protein misfolding in neurodegenerative diseases
(2004)
A common pathogenic mechanism shared by diverse neurodegenerative disorders, like Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, Huntington's disease and transmissible spongiform encephalopathies, may be altered protein homeostasis ...
CONSERVATIVE MANAGEMENT OF CANINE TRACHEAL COLLAPSE WITH STANOZOLOL: A DOUBLE BLINDED, PLACEBO CONTROL CLINICAL TRIAL
(2011)
The objective of this study is to determine the efficacy of stanozolol in the treatment of tracheal collapse (TC) in dogs, which is the analogous disease to tracheomalacia (TM) in humans. Twenty-two dogs with endoscopically ...
Histopathological and immunohistochemical features of natural goat scrapie
(2006)
Histopathological and immunohistochemical examinations were performed on the brain and spinal cord of 37 goats from two Greek herds in which scrapie had been reported. Of the 37 animals, 18 were from a herd consisting only ...
