The expression of squalene epoxidase in human gastric cancer and its clinical significance.

Context: Squalene epoxidase (SQLE) is overexpressed in a variety of tumors, which may play an important role in their tumorigenesis, development, and prognosis.

Aims: The aim of this study is to investigate the expression of SQLE and explore its clinicopathological significance in gastric cancer.

Settings And Design: The correlation between its positive expression and the pathological characteristics of patients (such as sex, age, tumor size, survival, tumor differentiation, TNM staging, and lymph node metastasis) was analyzed.

Expression and clinical significance of NUF2 in kidney renal clear cell carcinoma.

Background: To explore the expression and clinical significance of the cytokinesis-related gene in kidney renal clear cell carcinoma (KIRC).

Methods: Gene expression profiles of KIRC patients were extracted from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database. The differences in mRNA expression between patients and controls, as well as the relationship between the clinical characteristics and overall survival of the patients, were analyzed.

Kank1 and Ki67 expression are associated with poor prognosis in human pulmonary adenocarcinoma.

KN motif and ankyrin repeat domains 1 (Kank1) and ki67 are associated with tumorigenesis and progression. This paper researched the expression of Kank1 and Ki67 and their clinicopathologic significance in pulmonary adenocarcinoma (PA). We monitored the expression of KanK1 and ki67 in 94 cases of human PA and 31 cases of paracancerous tissue by the immunohistochemical method.

Prognostic and clinicopathologic significance of PAQR3 and VEGF-A expression in pulmonary adenocarcinoma.

Progesterone and adipoQ receptor family member 3 (PAQR3) and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF)-A are associated with tumorigenesis and progression. The aim of this study is to investigate the expression of PAQR3 and VEGF-A in pulmonary adenocarcinoma (PA) and explore their clinical and pathologic significance. The expressions of PAQR3 and VEGF-A protein were detected in 86 cases of human PA and 26 cases of tumor-adjacent tissue by immunohistochemistry.

Prognostic and clinicopathologic significance of AEG-1/MTDH and E-cadherin expression in human gallbladder carcinoma.

Astrocyte elevated gene-1 (AEG-1) and E-cadherin are associated with tumorigenesis and progression. The aim of this study is to investigate the expression of AEG-1 and E-cadherin in human gallbladder cancer (GBC) and explore their clinical and pathological significance. The expression of AEG-1 and E-cadherin protein were detected in 71 cases of human GBC and 22 cases of tumor-adjacent tissue by the immunohistochemical method.

The overexpression of uPA promotes the proliferation and fibrinolytic activity of human umbilical vein endothelial cells.

The purpose of this article is to study whether the overexpression of urokinase-type plasminogen activator (uPA) can promote the proliferation and fibrinolytic activity of human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs). The recombinant adenovirus vectors containing the human uPA gene were constructed and transfected into HUVECs. In this study, the mRNA of uPA was detected by qPCR, and the uPA protein was measured by Western blot.
