In conclusion, high-expression of CDKN2B-AS is associated with a poor response to paclitaxel of EC patients, and knockdown of CDKN2B-AS inhibits paclitaxel resistance through miR-125a-5p-Bcl2/MRP4 pathway in EC patients.
In this study, we evaluate the relationship between ATP-binding cassette superfamily F2 (ABCF2) expression and clinical factors including clinical stage, histologic type, grade and prognosis in uterine cervical and endometrial cancer.
Patients who underwent surgery for EMCA from 2011 to 2012 were identified from the American College of Surgeons - Nastional Surigical Quality Improvement Project (ACS-NSQIP) database.
The greater expression of ATP6AP2, AGTR1 and ACE1, key elements of the pro-angiogenic/proliferative arm of the RAS, suggests that the RAS plays a role in the growth and spread of endometrial cancer.
The presence of an angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) polymorphism was analyzed by polymerase chain reaction in DNA isolated from peripheral blood samples of 171 women: 70 cases with endometrial cancer (age, 63.6 +/- 9.5 years) and 101 normal control women (age, 61.3 +/- 6.4 years).
The G protein-coupled receptor GPR30 mediates the nontranscriptional effect of estrogen on the activation of PI3K/Akt pathway in endometrial cancer cells.
Patients who underwent surgery for EMCA from 2011 to 2012 were identified from the American College of Surgeons - Nastional Surigical Quality Improvement Project (ACS-NSQIP) database.
Global gene expression analyses demonstrated a ligand-dependent upregulated expression of filamin-A (FLNA), a gene that encodes an actin filament cross-linking protein, in both endometrial cancer cell types.
Signal transduction pathways regulating ADAMTS1 expression in Ishikawa cells stably expressing the FP receptor to levels seen in endometrial cancer (FPS cells) were determined by quantitative RT-PCR analysis.
