Indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase (IDO) expression in lung cancer
(2007)
Background: The expression of indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase (IDO) by tumor cells has been considered as a major tumor immune escape mechanism. The aim of this study was to investigate the expression of IDO in lung cancer ...
Serum vascular endothelial growth factor is related to systemic oxidative stress in patients with lung cancer
(2008)
Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) is known to play crucial rote in tumour angiogenesis. It is demonstrated that VEGF can be up-regulated by oxidative stress. The aim of this study was to determine the serum VEGF ...
Clinical significance of serum adipokines levels in lung cancer
(2013)
Adipokines have a significant effect on metabolism, immunoinflammatory responses as well as on carcinogenesis; therefore, we aimed at evaluating their potential predictive and prognostic significance in lung cancer. Eighty ...
Systemic oxidative stress in patients with pulmonary sarcoidosis
(2009)
Background: A local redox imbalance has been reported in pulmonary sarcoidosis. However so far no, study has described a systemic redox imbalance in this context. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the systemic ...
Baseline levels of CD8+ T cells against survivin and survivin-2B in the blood of lung cancer patients and cancer-free individuals
(2008)
Survivin and its variant survivin-2B have been considered as potential candidates for cancer immunotherapy. The magnitude however of spontaneously occurring CD8+ T cells circulating precursor CTLs (pCTL), has never been ...
