Genetic polymorphisms in the UDP-glucuronosyltransferase 1A1 (UGT1A1) gene and prostate cancer risk in Caucasian men
(2010)
Background: Catechol-estrogen metabolites can induce carcinogenesis by acting as endogenous tumor initiators. Glucuronidation, mediated by the UDP-glucuronosyltransferase 1A1 (UGT1A1) enzyme, is a main metabolic pathway ...
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 ...
Correlation of promoter hypermethylation in hTERT, DAPK and MGMT genes with cervical oncogenesis progression
(2009)
DNA hypermethylation occurs during the multi-step process of cervical carcinogenesis. We investigated whether the methylation status in the promoter region of a potential oncogene, the human telomerase reverse transcriptase ...
