In addition to their role in maintenance of tissue integrity, cell adhesion molecules regulate the growth and differentiation of stratified squamous epithelia. Reduced expression of E-cadherin and the 2 1 , 3 1 and 6 4 integrins is already reported to correlate with poor histological differentiation

## Abstract ## Background Increasing evidence suggests that endoglin (CD105) is a new powerful marker of neovascularization in solid malignancies. To explain the rating of CD105 expression in 51 squamous cell carcinoma of the oral cavity (SCCOC) we analyzed CD105 expression in tumor tissue and adj
Reduced expression of the cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor p27 Kip1 has been reported to correlate with poor survival in cohorts of breast and colorectal carcinoma patients. Posttranslational ubiquitin-mediated proteasomal proteolysis is related to p27 Kip1 protein levels. However, to the authors'
Our aim was to analyze the relationship between the proliferative activity of cancer cells, assessed using some cell cycle markers, and clinicopathological factors in colorectal carcinoma patients. Immunostaining for Ki-67 (pan-cell cycle marker), cyclin D1 (G 1 -phase marker) and cyclin A (S-to G 2
