• Reduced ADCs correlate with prognostic markers: poor differentiation and high Ki-67 expression • ADCs also significantly correlated with VEGF protein expression in primary tumours • Lower ADC values are associated with poorer survival in ovarian cancer • Whole lesion single plane-ROI ADCs may be used as a prognostic biomarker in OC.
ZH is an Affibody molecule specific for the extracellular domain of human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2/neu) that is overexpressed in inter alia breast and ovarian carcinomas.
YTLDrDSLYV peptide-specific cytotoxic T lymphocyte precursor frequency was low in peripheral blood leukocytes of normal donors and patients with ovarian cancer as determined by interferon-gamma production in ELISPOT assays.
Young Ashkenazi Jewish women or those from high-risk families who test positive for BRCA1 or BRCA2 mutant genes have a significant risk of developing breast or ovarian cancer by the age of 70 years.
Young Ashkenazi Jewish women or those from high-risk families who test positive for BRCA1 or BRCA2 mutant genes have a significant risk of developing breast or ovarian cancer by the age of 70 years.
Yet one question still remains: why is mutation of BRCA1 typically associated with preferential development of breast and ovarian cancers and not tumors in other tissues?
Yes-associated protein 1 (YAP1) is a key transcriptional regulator in the Hippo signaling pathway that plays a critical role in the development and progression of several types of malignancies, including ovarian cancer.
Worry about ovarian cancer risk predicted use of preventative pBSO among high-risk women including those with BRCA1/2 mutations enrolled in an ovarian cancer-screening program.
