Imunoexpressão de proteínas relacionadas à via hippo em carcinomas papilíferos de tireoide
Immunoexpression of Hippo pathway-related proteins in papillary thyroid carcinomas

O carcinoma papilífero de tireoide (CPT) é a neoplasia maligna mais comum na glândula tireoide. Embora essas lesões geralmente tenham um excelente prognóstico, há casos que apresentam características clínico-patológicas agressivas, com alto índice de metástase linfonodal e recorrência. Diante...

Up-regulation of GINS1 highlighted a good diagnostic and prognostic potential of survival in three different subtypes of human cancer

Braz. j. biol; 84 (), 2024
Abstract Cancer is a fatal malignancy and its increasing worldwide prevalence demands the discovery of more sensitive and reliable molecular biomarkers. To investigate the GINS1 expression level and its prognostic value in distinct human cancers using a series of multi-layered in silico approach may help...

Bioinformatics and expression analysis of the Xeroderma Pigmentosum complementation group C (XPC) of Trypanosoma evansi in Trypanosoma cruzi cells

Braz. j. biol; 83 (), 2023
Abstract Nucleotide excision repair (NER) acts repairing damages in DNA, such as lesions caused by cisplatin. Xeroderma Pigmentosum complementation group C (XPC) protein is involved in recognition of global genome DNA damages during NER (GG-NER) and it has been studied in different organisms due to its i...

Proteomics-based identification of cancer-associated proteins in chronic lymphocytic leukaemia

BACKGROUND: Chronic lymphocytic leukaemia (CLL) is a neoplasm of B-cells characterized by variable prognosis. Exploring the proteome of CLL cells may provide insights into the disease. Therefore, eleven proteomics experiments were conducted on eleven primary CLL samples. RESULTS: We reported a CLL proteo...

The association between the histopathological features and microsatellite instability in young patients with urothelial carcinoma of the bladder

SUMMARY OBJECTIVE: Bladder cancer under the age of 40 is extremely rare. Bladder cancer development involves complex and multi-stage processes, one of which is the DNA damage repair mechanism. In this retrospective study, we aimed to evaluate the histopathological features of bladder urothelial carcinom...

De novo ALX4 variant detected in child with non-syndromic craniosynostosis

Braz. j. med. biol. res; 54 (11), 2021
Current understanding of the genetic factors contributing to the etiology of non-syndromic craniosynostosis (NSC) remains scarce. The present work investigated the presence of variants in ALX4, EFNA4, and TWIST1 genes in children with NSC to verify if variants within these genes may contribute to the occ...

Inmunodeficiencia Combinada Severa, reporte de pacientes chilenos diagnosticados durante el período 1999-2020

Rev. chil. pediatr; 91 (6), 2020
INTRODUCCIÓN: La inmunodeficiencia combinada severa (IDCS) corresponde a una de las formas más graves de inmunodeficiencia primaria, existiendo escasos datos nacionales sobre ésta. OBJETIVO: describir la epidemiología, complicaciones, pronóstico y uso de la vacuna BCG en pacientes chilenos con IDCS....

Evaluation of nuclear NF-κB, transglutaminase2, and ERCC1 as predictors of platinum resistance in testicular tumors

Int. braz. j. urol; 46 (3), 2020
ABSTRACT Purpose: Testicular germ cells tumor (TGCT) are associated with a high cure rate and are treated with platinum-based chemotherapy. However, a group of testicular cancer patients may have a very unfavorable evolution and insensitivity to the main therapeutic agent chemotherapy (CT) cisplatin. Th...

Polymorphism in GRHL2 gene may contribute to noise-induced hearing loss susceptibility: a meta-analysis

Abstract Instruction: Noise-induced hearing loss is a leading occupational disease caused by gene-environment interaction. The Grainy Like 2, GRHL2, is a candidate gene. In this regard, many studies have evaluated the association between GRHL2 and noise-induced hearing loss, although the results are amb...
