Background And Objective: Recent studies proved that P21-activated kinase 1 (PAK1) is highly expressed in many kinds of tumor and plays an important role in genesis, development, and metastasis of tumor. We aimed to detect the expression of PAK1 in gastric carcinoma and to analyze its relationship with clinicopathological features and prognosis of gastric carcinoma.
Methods: Tissue microarray and immunohistochemical staining were performed to detect PAK1 in paraffin specimens of 189 gastric carcinomas, 54 paracancer tissues, 40 lymph nodes and 30 healthy tissues.
Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to determine how common Helicobacter pylori (Hp) infection is among children and teenagers aged 3 to 18 in Wuwei city, Gansu province, revealing a high prevalence of 72.3% among 938 subjects surveyed.
- Risk factors linked to Hp infection included dwelling type, parents' jobs, water source, kindergarten attendance, eating raw vegetables, poor oral hygiene, and breastfeeding, with drinking water source and kindergarten attendance being the most significant.
- The analysis indicated that maternal-child and sibling-sibling transmission are the main routes for Hp spread, and serological results showed that most infections in the region were type I Hp.
Objective: To investigate the expression of Ets-1 in gastric carcinoma, para-cancerous tissue and metastatic lymph nodes, and to determine the relationship between Ets-1 expression and clinicopathological features, angiogenesis and survival of patients with gastric carcinoma.
Methods: Gastric carcinoma tissue microarray was used to determine Ets-1 protein expression by SP immunohistochemical staining in 189 advanced gastric cancer, 54 papacancerous tissues, 41 metastatic lymph nodes and 32 control tissues.
Results: The positive rates for Ets-1 expression of the carcinoma, paracancerous and control tissues were 71.
