## Abstract The ErbBβdriven autocrine growth pathway has been implicated in the development and progression of most common human epithelial malignancies; its blockade is therefore a promising therapeutic strategy, and several candidate drugs are currently undergoing clinical trials. Paradoxically,

It is well established that the activation of proto-oncogenes could trigger uncontrolled cell growth and cancer development. Although this correlation has already been evidenced in several human tumors, no conclusive studies have related oncogene activation with the development of prostatic neoplasi
CD44 is a family of cell surface transmembrane glycoproteins members which differ in the extracellular part by sequences derived by alternative splicing of 10 variant exons (v1-v10). CD44 proteins containing such variant sequences have been implicated in tumor metastasis formation. Here, we have eva
Many studies have tried to discriminate malignant from benign phaeochromocytomas, but until now no widely accepted histological, immunohistochemical, or molecular methods have been available. In this study of 29 malignant and 85 benign phaeochromocytomas from 102 patients, immunohistochemistry was p
## Abstract We investigated the expression levels of human lactoferrin (Lf), a steroid hormoneβinducible gene product the expression of which is often altered during oncogenesis, and of Ξβlactoferrin (ΞLf), its alternative isoform, which has been shown to be absent from tumor cell lines in commonly
