## Abstract ## BACKGROUND The aim of this study was to assess the relationship between the expression of the 27‐kilodalton (kD) __bcl__‐2 protein and survival among nonsmall cell lung carcinoma (NSCLC) patients. ## METHODS Paired tissue samples of histologically confirmed tumor and uninvolved lu

## Abstract PLK1 is essential for the maintenance of genomic stability during mitosis. In our study, we found that overexpression of PLK1 was an independent prognostic factor (RR = 4.253, __p__ = 0.020) and significantly correlated with survivin, an antiapoptotic protein, in esophageal squamous cel
Aberrations in the function of alpha-catenin (alpha-cat), the anchoring protein of E-cadherin, are believed to cause dysfunction of the cadherin-catenin complex, leading to disturbed cell-cell adhesion. It has been suggested that expression of alpha-cat in human tumours might be a better indicator o
Overexpression of cyclin D2 was studied in 10 human squamous cell carcinoma lines, to establish whether this gene plays a role in tumor progression. We found that those cell lines that overexpressed cyclin D2 (CCND2) had the most invasive in vivo behavior. The invasive ability of the cell lines was
antibodies, the authors immunostained sections of formalin fixed, paraffin embedded tissues from 289 Stage I NSCLCs. The Kaplan-Meier survival method, the log Department of Pathology, Baylor College of rank test, and Fisher's exact test were used for statistical analysis. Medicine and the Methodist
