Detection of serum FEZF1-AS1 and AFAP1-AS1 showed both of them were up-regulated in GC patients compared with the normal controls (p < 0.0001), and high serum expression levels were correlated with tumor size, tumor-node-metastasis (TNM) stage and lymph node metastasis.
The high expression of exosomal miR-485-3p correlated with tumor size greater than or equal to 1 cm, advanced clinical stage, extrathyroidal extension, BRAF mutation, and lymph node metastasis.
HER2 status was associated with primary tumor location (P = 0.037), regional lymph node metastasis (P = 0.035), and TNM stage (P = 0.022) in CRCs based on the HERACLES criteria.
Furthermore, the patients with cervical lymph node metastasis had higher methylation rate in miR-335 promoter (66.7% versus 16.7%) than those without cervical lymph node metastasis.
To compare the diagnostic efficiency of ⁶⁸Gallium labelled prostate-specific membrane antigen positron emission tomography (⁶⁸Ga-PSMA PET) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) for staging the lymph node metastases (LNMs) in the prostate cancer.
Together, our results demonstrate that RACK1 stimulates tumor invasion and lymph node metastasis of cervical cancer via galectin-1 and imply that targeting RACK1/galectin-1 axis provides promising means for cervical cancer treatment.
Furthermore, the level of IL-8 and its receptors CXCR1 and CXCR2 expression were associated with ovarian cancer stage, grade and lymph node metastasis.
Do estrogen, progesterone, P53 and Ki67 receptor ratios determined from curettage materials in endometrioid-type endometrial carcinoma predict lymph node metastasis?
In the multivariate analysis, negative p16 immunostaining was associated with a worse overall survival together with advanced FIGO stage and lymph node metastases.
We assessed the combined use of demographic data (sex and age) with mRNA expression levels and/or mutational status (BRAFV600E and RET/PTC1) to identify potential subsets of patients with aggressive histopathological features (lymph node metastases and extrathyroidal extension).
PSA relapse was observed in one patient (1.08%) in the low-risk group (pelvic lymph node involvement was detected) and in seven patients (6.5%) in the intermediate-risk group (three lymph node metastases, two lymph node and bone metastases, two PSA relapses).
<b>Objective:</b> The COMBI-AD trial demonstrated the efficacy and safety of dabrafenib and trametinib in combination vs placebo as adjuvant treatment of patients with BRAFV600E/K mutation-positive resected Stage IIIA (lymph node metastasis >1 mm), IIIB, or IIIC melanoma.
Meanwhile, the expression of PD-L1 was positively correlated with the lymph node metastasis (OR: 0.70, 95% CI 0.51-0.95, p = 0.00), gender (OR: 0.86, 95% CI 0.76-0.98, p = 0.05) and tumor location (OR: 1.39, 95% CI 1.14-1.71, p = 0.12).
The expressions of CD24, B7-H4 and PCNA in ovarian cancer tissues with lymph node metastasis were significantly increased compared with those in ovarian cancer tissues without lymph node metastasis (p<0.05).
In this study, immunohistochemistry was performed to examine the expression of GARP and Foxp3 in 19 human PTC tissues (including 10 cases with and 9 cases without lymph node metastasis) and 20 benign thyroid diseases (including 10 cases with nodular goiter and 10 cases with adenoma).
