Background: Nearly 80% of patients with malignant uterine smooth muscle tumor will suffer local relapse and/or distant metastases after initial surgical resection. There is no convincing evidence that the addition of pelvic radiation improves the outcome. However, adjuvant chemotherapy might be an a

## Abstract ## BACKGROUND In the current study, the authors present pooled data from studies that investigated p53 protein expression and/or mutation in human epithelial ovarian tumors. ## METHODS The English literature in the MEDLINE, PubMed, and Ingenta databases was searched to the end of the
## BACKGROUND. Neuroendocrine neoplasms of the lung represent a wide spectrum of phenotypically and biologically distinct entities. Their histopathologic diagnosis, which carries therapeutic and prognostic significance, may sometimes be difficult because of their overlapping features. We previously
The purpose of our study was to determine the expression of the pro-apoptotic BAX protein in relation to the mutational status of BAX and p53 (as transcriptional activator of the BAX gene) in benign and malignant thyroid tissue. In 47 patients with thyroid tumours (14 follicular and 3 papillary carc
Telomerase activity is involved in the maintenance of telomere length and is thought to be required for cellular immortality and oncogenesis. Three major subunits composing telomerase, human telomerase RNA (hTR), telomeraseassociated protein (TP1) and human telomerase catalytic subunit (hTERT), have
