## Abstract ## BACKGROUND Telomere maintenance has been proposed as an essential step for tumor cell immortalization. The objectives of the current study were to investigate the mechanisms implicated in telomere length in colorectal carcinoma (CRC) and to evaluate the prognostic impact of telomere

## Abstract In a previous study, we showed that telomerase activity (TA) and human telomerase reverse transcriptase (hTERT) mRNA expression were undetectable in benign mesenchymal lesions and lowβgrade soft tissue sarcomas (STSs), but detectable in about 50% of intermediateβ/highβgrade STSs. We won
## Abstract The bone marrow from 55 children with acute lymphocytic leukemia diagnosed from April 1969 to June 1973 were evaluated for blast cell morphology and size. Sixteen marrows contained a predominance of macrolymphoblasts (> 12 ΞΌ), while the remainder contained mainly microlymphoblasts. Ther
We investigated the role of p53 and of the Bcl-2 family proteins in the apoptotic response of a panel of testicular tumour cell lines (NT2, NCCIT, S2 and 2102 EP). The p53 gene status and the capacity of the p53 protein to transactivate the p21/WAF/CIP gene were determined, and we examined the corre
Basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF, FGF-2) is progressively lost from mammary epithelial cells as they become malignant. To investigate the effects of restoring the expression of bFGF in breast cancer cells, we constructed MCF-7 cells that permanently overexpress 18-kD cytoplasm-localizing bFGF (M
