Villin is a cytoskeletal protein that is involved in the formation of brush-border microvilli in normal small intestine and colon epithelium. This protein is present in Barrett's metaplasia but is reported not to be expressed in Barrett's adenocarcinoma. In this study, we analyzed villin protein exp

## Background: Glutathione s-transferase pi (gstpi) is an enzyme that provides cellular protection against redox-mediated damage by free radicals, which have been implicated in carcinogenesis. ## Methods: Forty-three consecutive specimens from 19 patients were reviewed to identify samples of squa
## BACKGROUND. None of the commonly used staging criteria accurately determine the prognosis of a patient with adenocarcinoma of Barrett's esophagus. The authors therefore assessed the expression pattern and prognostic impact of CD44 standard and CD44 isoforms CD44v4, v5,v6,v7, and v10 in adenocar
## Abstract Previous studies from our laboratory and others have suggested that increased expression of __cox‐2__ is important in the genesis of esophageal adenocarcinoma. __In vitro__ studies suggest that __cox‐2__ regulates expression of the anti‐apoptotic protein bcl‐2, thus possibly accounting
Human hepatocytes stimulated with human recombinant hepatocyte growth factor (h-rHGF) (10 ng/mL) displayed a characteristic lag period before entering into the S phase. The duration of this delay was dependent on the timing of h-rHGF addition to cultures. The highest peak of DNA synthesis was observ
