Secondary malignant neoplasm of lymph node
0.100 AlteredExpression disease BEFREE Reduced SMAD4 expression was found in 60.8% of cases; it was significantly correlated with advanced stages and lymph node metastasis and showed trends of larger tumor size and lymphatic invasion. 30946932 2019
Secondary malignant neoplasm of lymph node
0.100 AlteredExpression disease BEFREE Immunohistochemistry showed that the expression of SMAD4 in PDAC carcinoma tissue was significantly lower than that in normal pancreatic tissue, and negative SMAD4 expression was closely related to tumour diameter, staging, lymph node metastasis and differentiation. 31684910 2019
Secondary malignant neoplasm of lymph node
0.100 Biomarker disease BEFREE SMAD4 loss was not correlated with the size, grades, and lymph node metastasis of PDAC. 28053288 2017
Secondary malignant neoplasm of lymph node
0.100 AlteredExpression disease BEFREE Kaplan-Meier survival analysis showed that tumor size (P = 0.031), lymph node metastasis (P < 0.001), pathological stage (P < 0.001), P53(Mut) protein expression (P = 0.038), and loss of p16 or Smad4 expression (P < 0.001) were significantly associated with shorter overall survival(OS), whereas multivariate analysis indicated that lymph node metastasis (P = 0.014) and loss of p16 or Smad4 expression (P < 0.001) were independent prognostic factors. 25890228 2015
Secondary malignant neoplasm of lymph node
0.100 Biomarker disease BEFREE In addition, loss of Smad4 staining was more likely to be found in older (OR = 1.69, 95% CI: 1.09-2.61; Pheterogeneity = 0.648) colorectal cancer patients with a late tumor stage (OR = 2.31, 95% CI: 1.71-3.10; Pheterogeneity = 0.218) and in gastric cancer patients with lymph node metastasis (OR = 2.11, 95% CI: 1.03-4.34; Pheterogeneity = 0.038). 25333693 2014
Secondary malignant neoplasm of lymph node
0.100 AlteredExpression disease BEFREE The results indicated that the low expression of Smad4 mRNA in prostate cancer was associated with lymph node metastasis, preoperative prostate-specific antigen (PSA), and Gleason score. 24272204 2014
Secondary malignant neoplasm of lymph node
0.100 Biomarker disease BEFREE Kaplan-Meier survival analysis showed that lymph node metastasis (P = 0.001), lymphatic invasion (P = 0.008), the tumor (T) factor (T3 vs. T1/T2, P = 0.004), loss of p16 immunolabeling (P = 0.029), and loss of Smad4/Dpc4 immunolabeling (P < 0.001) were significantly associated with shorter overall survival. 23470568 2013
Secondary malignant neoplasm of lymph node
0.100 AlteredExpression disease BEFREE TbetaRII and Smad4 were significantly down-regulated in tumor tissues (with or without lymph node metastasis) compared to normal oral epithelium tissues (P < 0.05). 18418730 2009
Secondary malignant neoplasm of lymph node
0.100 Biomarker disease BEFREE Immunohistochemical results revealed that the positive rate of deleted in pancreatic carcinoma locus 4 in normal tracheal-bronchial epithelium (89.5%, 17/19) was much higher than that in tumor tissues (63.5%, 33/52) (P < .05) and closely correlated with lymph node metastasis (P < .001). 18620728 2008
Secondary malignant neoplasm of lymph node
0.100 AlteredExpression disease BEFREE We revealed that chromosome 18q deletion and Smad4 protein inactivation are the essential molecular events in the process of lymph node metastasis. 17786972 2008
Secondary malignant neoplasm of lymph node
0.100 AlteredExpression disease BEFREE In addition, the protein and mRNA levels of SMAD4 in lymph node metastases was significantly lower than in primary tumors (P = 0.006). 16144935 2005
Secondary malignant neoplasm of lymph node
0.100 Biomarker disease BEFREE Based on an analysis of 577 cases for which clinical outcome information was available, failure to express Smad2, pSmad2, or Smad4 was associated with advanced-stage disease, the presence of lymph node metastases, and a significantly shorter overall survival (median survival: 35 vs 58 months). 12967141 2003
Secondary malignant neoplasm of lymph node
0.100 Biomarker disease BEFREE Loss of Smad4 was inversely correlated with the presence of axillary lymph node metastases. 11809701 2002
