## Abstract ## Background and Objectives Loss of PTEN expression has been associated with tumor progression and adverse patient outcome. The purpose of this study was to evaluate PTEN expression in the successive steps of progression in cervical neoplasia and to determine its correlation with tumo

BACKGROUND. Squamous intraepithelial lesions (SILs) of the cervix are associated with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection, but multiple risk factors must be considered in this context. The authors performed a cross-sectional study to assess the prevalence of and the factors associated with
## Background: Serine proteases have important roles in tumor invasion and metastasis, and their inhibitors, serine protease inhibitors (serpins), are attractive targets for therapeutic strategies. on chromosome 18q21, there is a cluster of serpins: maspin, headpin, and squamous cell carcinoma anti
To investigate p150, a recently cloned protein, and its prognostic value in esophageal squamous-cell carcinoma, 100 samples were analyzed immunohistochemically and 30 fresh samples by the immunoblot method. All 100 patients, from Northern China, over-expressed p150 as compared with controls in the i
Recent results suggest that p53 inactivation is required for cervical-carcinoma development. The mdm-2 oncogene, which forms an auto-regulatory feedback loop with the normal p53 protein, has been found amplified in human carcinomas, thus abolishing the anti-proliferative function of p53. To investig
