Identification of novel biomarkers with potential for diagnosis and prognosis of gastric cancer: a bioinformatics approach

ABCS health sci; 48 (), 2023
INTRODUCTION: Gastric cancer (GC) is the fifth most diagnosed neoplasia and the third leading cause of cancer-related deaths. A substantial number of patients exhibit an advanced GC stage once diagnosed. Therefore, the search for biomarkers contributes to the improvement and development of therapies. OBJ...

Mast cells-derived MiR-223 destroys intestinal barrier function by inhibition of CLDN8 expression in intestinal epithelial cells

Biol. Res; 53 (), 2020
BACKGROUND: Mast cells (MCs) have been found to play a critical role during development of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) that characterized by dysregulation of inflammation and impaired intestinal barrier function. However, the function of MCs in IBD remains to be fully elucidated. RESULTS: In our stu...

Expression of stromal elements of prostatic adenocarcinoma in different gleason scores

Acta cir. bras; 34 (10), 2019
Abstract Purpose: To quantify and compare the expression of stromal elements in prostate adenocarcinoma of different Gleason scores with non-tumor area (control). Methods: We obtained 132 specimens from samples of prostate peripheral and transition zone. We analyzed the following elements of the extrac...

Immunoexpression of TS, p53, COX2, EGFR, MSH6 and MLH1 biomarkers and its correlation with degree of differentiation, tumor staging and prognostic factors in colorectal adenocarcinoma: a retrospective longitudinal study

Säo Paulo med. j; 137 (1), 2019
ABSTRACT BACKGROUND: There are cases of colorectal tumors that, although small, show more aggressive evolution than large tumors. This motivated us to study whether there are any proteins capable of alerting about these changes. The aim here was to correlate the immunoexpression of the TS, p53, COX2, E...

Protein expression profiles and clinicopathologic characteristics associate with gastric cancer survival

Biol. Res; 52 (), 2019
BACKGROUND: Prognosis remains one of most crucial determinants of gastric cancer (GC) treatment, but current methods do not predict prognosis accurately. Identification of additional biomarkers is urgently required to identify patients at risk of poor prognoses. METHODS: Tissue microarrays were used to m...

Expression analysis of long non-coding RNAs in a renal ischemia-reperfusion injury model

Acta cir. bras; 34 (4), 2019
Abstract Purpose: To investigate the long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) profile on renal ischemia reperfusion in a mouse model. Methods: Microarray analysis was used to study the expression of misregulated lncRNA in a mouse model of renal ischemia reperfusion(I/R) with long ischemia time. Quantitative re...

Tissue microarray technology and collagen evaluation to analyze surgical trauma performed with usual blade or ultrasonic harmonic scalpels in rats

Acta cir. bras; 33 (9), 2018
Abstract Purpose: To compare wound healing performed with cold blade (CSB) and ultrasonic harmonic scalpel (UHS) in the abdominal aponeurosis of rats. Methods: Eighty Wistar rats divided into two groups and underwent midline incision in the linea alba with cold blade and harmonic ultrasonic scalpel. ...

O papel dos macrófagos associados ao tumor (TAM) na predição de acometimento metastático de linfonodos sentinelas em câncer de mama

INTRODUÇÃO: Os macrófagos associados ao tumor (TAM) constituem até 50% da massa tumoral do câncer de mama, sendo vitais na resposta imune inata. Essas células são dotadas de uma plasticidade a qual lhes permitem a mudança de seu fenótipo de acordo com os sinais do microambiente tumoral. Há estu...

Profile of apoptotic proteins in oral squamous cell carcinoma: A cluster analysis of 171 cases

Appl. cancer res; 37 (), 2017
Oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) is the eighth most prevalent cancer worldwide. In recent large-scale studies, by immunohistochemistry and cluster analysis, several markers were associated with patient survival in various tumors. The aim of this study was to analyze the expression profiles of 23 prote...

Analysis of gene expression changes associated with human carcinoma-associated fibroblasts in non-small cell lung carcinoma

Biol. Res; 50 (), 2017
BACKGROUND: This study aimed to investigate the gene expression changes associated with carcinoma-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) involving in non-small cell lung carcinoma (NSCLC). METHODS: We downloaded the GEO series GSE22862, which contained matched gene expression values for 15 CAF and normal fibrobla...
