The aim of the present study was to evaluate the potential association between expression of β-catenin and gelsolin, and their influence on the migration ability of colon adenocarcinoma LS180 cells.
The most important markers for discriminating between the groups were CEA (classical carcinoid versus all others), KRas mutation (present in all mucinous cystadeno (carcino)mas), beta-catenin (goblet cell carcinoid versus left sided colonic adenocarcinoma) and chromogranin (goblet cell carcinoid versus right sided colonic adenocarcinoma).
Altered gene expression in rat colonic adenocarcinomas induced in an azoxymethane plus 2-amino-1-methyl-6-phenylimidazo[4,5-b]- pyridine initiation-promotion model.
We report on a case with constitutional mismatch repair deficiency caused by a novel MSH6 mutation leading to a T-cell lymphoma and colonic adenocarcinoma at six and 13 years of age, respectively.
The patient's adenocarcinoma of the colon and IPMN of the pancreas showed identical immunohistochemical staining profiles with loss of expression of MSH2 and MSH6 proteins and high levels of microsatellite instability.
To examine such a hypothesis, the effect of DEHP on SXR-mediated transcription of the MDR1 gene was studied in the human colon adenocarcinoma-derived cell line, LS174T cells, which endogenously express SXR.
These findings are suggestive of a mutation in the p53 gene in the adenocarcinoma and in dysplastic epithelium lining the cysts, similar to the dysplasia-carcinoma sequence described for the development of colonic adenocarcinoma.
The present study aims to identify differences between left and right colon adenocarcinoma arising from identical clonal cell and to find out if microenvironment has any influence on matrix metalloproteinase-2 (MMP2), p53 and β-catenin tumor expressions.MATERIAL AND METHODS.
The study was performed on ovarian cancer cell line (OvBH-1), colon adenocarcinoma metastasis to ovary (SW626) and on cells isolated from ascitic fluids from patients with ovarian cancer: with (p53+) or without (p53-) p53 nuclear protein accumulation. p53 protein, Ser15, Ser20, Bax, Noxa and PgP protein expression was evaluated by means of immunocytochemical staining before and after chemotherapy.
Correlate the expression of CD44 and CD166 markers in metastatic colon adenocarcinoma and KRAS mutation status (wild-type/mutated) with clinical pathological features and patients' outcome.
Among the patients positive for TP53 mutations diagnosed with colon adenocarcinoma, 50% also showed at least one mutation in pathogenic genes of which 14% were BRAF, 33% were KRAS, and 3% were NRAS.
