The expression of MRP1/CD9 and integrin alpha3 from the same tissue sample were examined immunohistochemically in 15 patients with normal endometrium and in 56 patients with uterine endometrioid adenocarcinoma.
With regard to its value for histopathological diagnosis, immunohistochemical characterization of endometrioid adenocarcinomas shows that a decrease in ACS5 expression correlates with tumour dedifferentiation.
In adiponectin receptor-positive endometrioid adenocarcinoma, we think adiponectin-based anticancer therapy is useful; however, in histological high-grade endometrioid adenocarcinoma, in which the expression levels of adiponectin receptors are relatively low, adiponectin therapy supported by adiponectin receptor induction is needed.
Decreased expression of AdipoR1 was associated with myometrial invasion and lymph node metastasis of endometrioid adenocarcinoma (P=0.0039 and P=0.0069, respectively).
In this study, we analyzed the immunohistochemical expression of AdipoR1 and AdipoR2 in a series of surgically resected human endometrioid adenocarcinoma tissues from a total of 141 cases.
AF-6/afadin could be a useful selection marker for fertility-sparing therapy for patients with atypical hyperplasia or grade 1 endometrioid adenocarcinoma with no myometrial invasion.
To determine estrogen as a growth promotor, the authors investigated the presence or absence of estrogen receptor-alpha (ER-alpha), ER-beta, progesterone receptor, and dioxin receptor (i.e., aromatic hydrocarbon receptor) in clinically resected ovarian CCA, serous adenocarcinoma (SAC), endometrioid adenocarcinoma (EAC), and mucinous adenocarcinoma (MAC) specimens using an immunohistochemical method.
Fisher's exact test suggested that high expression of ALDH1 was significantly associated with endometrioid adenocarcinoma (P<0.0001), early-stage disease (P=0.006), complete response to chemotherapy (P<0.05), and a low serum level of CA125 (P=0.02).
AMH expression was confirmed in 23 patients with well differentiated endometrioid adenocarcinoma (G1), moderately differentiated endometrioid adenocarcinoma (G2), clear cell carcinoma (CCA) and nonatypical hyperplasia.
It has also been suggested that ARID1A mutation occurs at the early stage of canceration from endometriosis to endometriosis‑associated carcinoma in ovarian cancer and also from atypical endometrial hyperplasia to endometrioid adenocarcinoma in endometrial cancer.
BAX somatic frameshift mutations in endometrioid adenocarcinomas of the endometrium: evidence for a tumor progression role in endometrial carcinomas with microsatellite instability.
This study aimed to investigate the role of NEDD9 (neural precursor cell expressed developmentally down-regulated 9), BCAR1/P130CAS (BCAR1/P130 Crk-associated substrate) and paxillin in predicting the prognosis of endometrioid adenocarcinoma (EA), so as to guild the nursing of EA.
This study hypothesized that the BRAFV600E mutation may be associated with mucinous morphology in endometrial cancer and aimed to investigate its prevalence in mucinous (endometrial) carcinoma (MC) and endometrioid adenocarcinoma with significant mucinous differentiations (ECMD) (>10% neoplastic cells).
The staining score for endometrioid adenocarcinomas also was inversely correlated with the labeling index (LI) of Ki-67, but not with that of cyclin A, cyclin D1, cyclin E, cdk2, p27, p53, or other clinicopathologic parameters.
CD24 has been reported to be a marker for a poor prognosis in several tumors, and we herein examined the functions of CD24 in human endometrioid adenocarcinoma cell lines and evaluated how it contributes to cancer drug resistance.
Here, expression level of CDCP1 was immunohistochemically examined in 110 cases (median age of 54.7 years) of endometrioid adenocarcinoma, and its clinical implications were evaluated.
The Spearman rank correlation analysis showed that the expression of the Twist protein and that of the E-cadherin (r = -0.584, P < 0.05), N-cadherin protein (r = 0.460, P < 0.05) in endometrioid adenocarcinoma was significant correlated with statistical difference.
