DNA promoter and histone H3 methylation downregulate NGX6 in gastric cancer cellsMedical Oncology - Tập 31 - Trang 1-9 - 2013
Jian Liu, Xinjiang Zhu, Xiaoyang Xu, Dongqiu Dai
Nasopharyngeal carcinoma-associated gene 6 (NGX6) is a novel candidate tumor
metastasis suppressor gene. Our study was to determine whether DNA
hypermethylation and histone modification at the NGX6 gene promoter play
important roles in silencing NGX6 expression in gastric cancer. NGX6 expression
was downregulated in all gastric cancer cells and 76.19 % tissues. In three GC
cell lines, hypermethyla... hiện toàn bộ
Telomere shortening occurs early during gastrocarcinogenesisMedical Oncology - Tập 29 - Trang 893-898 - 2011
Yunchuan Mu, Qing Zhang, Linhang Mei, Xiaosun Liu, Weili Yang, Jiren Yu
When telomeres are shortened to a critical length, they will initiate
chromosomal instability (CIN) and may finally cause tumorigenesis. The purpose
of the present study was to evaluate the shortened telomere as a potential
biomarker for tumorigenesis in gastric carcinoma. The telomeres in matched
cancer and adjacent noncancer mucosa samples from 86 gastric carcinoma patients
were measured by real... hiện toàn bộ
Lung cancer as a cardiotoxic state: a reviewMedical Oncology - Tập 34 - Trang 1-17 - 2017
David Pérez-Callejo, María Torrente, María Auxiliadora Brenes, Beatriz Núñez, Mariano Provencio
As the overall survival of patients with lung cancer continues to increase, more
cancer survivors are faced with the risk of developing treatment-related
cardiovascular toxicities. The increased knowledge of the molecular biology of
non-small cell lung cancer has led to new and more personalized treatments.
Nevertheless, the usual chemotherapy schemes and radiation therapy induce
cardiac toxicitie... hiện toàn bộ
Serum semicarbazide-sensitive amine oxidase (SSAO) activity correlates with VEGF in non-small-cell lung cancer patientsMedical Oncology - Tập 21 - Trang 241-250 - 2004
Håkan Garpenstrand, Michael Bergqvist, Daniel Brattström, Anders Larsson, Lars Oreland, Patrik Hesselius, Gunnar Wagenius
Semicarbazide-sensitive amine oxidase (SSAO) is an enzyme associated with
vascular systems in mammals. SSAO catalyzes the deamination of primary
monoamines and has been suggested to be a risk factor in vascular disorders,
e.g., diabetic vascular complications. The primary aim of the present study was
to investigate if serum SSAO activity is associated with clinical parameters in
non-small cell lun... hiện toàn bộ
Prognostic evaluation of microRNA-210 expression in pediatric osteosarcomaMedical Oncology - Tập 30 - Trang 1-6 - 2013
Haiqing Cai, Lijun Lin, Haikang Cai, Mingjie Tang, Zhigang Wang
MicroRNA-210 (miR-210) plays important roles in the regulation of cell growth,
angiogenesis, and apoptosis in different cancer type. Previous study of miRNA
expression profiling found that miR-210 was significantly elevated in
osteosarcoma samples. However, its roles in this disease have not been fully
elucidated. Thus, the aim of this study was to investigate the association of
miR-210 expression... hiện toàn bộ
Tumor lysis syndrome after treatment with gemcitabine for metastatic transitional cell carcinomaMedical Oncology - Tập 24 - Trang 455-457 - 2007
Cheng-Jui Lin, Ken-Hong Lim, Yi-Chou Cheng, Han-Hsiang Chen, Chih-Jen Wu
Tumor lysis syndrome is a set of life threatening complication that can arise
from treatment of high tumor burden, drug sensitive, and rapidly proliferating
neoplasm particularly of hematological origin. It is rarely described in
patients with solid tumors. We report the first case of tumor lysis syndrome in
a man with metastatic renal pelvic transitional cell carcinoma after gemcitabine
treatment... hiện toàn bộ
Zoledronic acid inhibits proliferation and impairs migration and invasion through downregulating VEGF and MMPs expression in human nasopharyngeal carcinoma cellsMedical Oncology - Tập 29 - Trang 714-720 - 2011
Xu-yuan Li, Ying-cheng Lin, Wan-lan Huang, Chao-qun Hong, Jiong-yu Chen, Yan-jie You, Wei-bing Li
To demonstrate the effect of zoledronic acid in proliferation, invasion, and
migration of human nasopharyngeal carcinoma cell HNE-1 and explore the potential
role of VEGF, MMP-2, and MMP-9 proteins in vitro. Human nasopharyngeal carcinoma
cell HNE-1 was exposed to various concentrations (0–40 μmol/l) of zoledronic
acid. Zoledronic acid inhibited proliferation of HNE-1 cells though not in a
dose-de... hiện toàn bộ
Nitrative and oxidative DNA damage as potential survival biomarkers for nasopharyngeal carcinomaMedical Oncology - Tập 28 - Trang 377-384 - 2010
Yuan-Jiao Huang, Bei-Bei Zhang, Ning Ma, Mariko Murata, An-zhou Tang, Guang-Wu Huang
Currently, there are no satisfactory biomarkers available to screen for
nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC). Nitric oxide (NO), produced by inducible nitric
oxide synthase (iNOS), has been suggested to cause nitrative and oxidative
stress, leading to the accumulation of 8-nitroguanine (8-NitroG) and
8-hydroxy-2′-deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG) and the subsequent transversion mutation of
DNA. The aim of this st... hiện toàn bộ
