## Abstract ## BACKGROUND: Recent genetic studies have implicated p53 mutation as a significant risk factor for therapeutic failure in squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck (SCCHN). However, in a recent meta‐analysis in the literature of p53 from major anatomical subsites (larynx, oral cavi
## Abstract YKL‐40 is a glycoprotein secreted by macrophages, neutrophils and malignant tumor cells. Elevated serum levels of YKL‐40 are associated with poor prognosis in several malignancies. In this study, we examined the prognostic value of serum YKL‐40 before treatment and during follow‐up in p
## Abstract The soluble frizzled receptor protein (__SFRP__) family encodes antagonists of the WNT pathway, and silencing of these genes, through promoter hypermethylation, leads to constitutive WNT signaling. In bladder cancers, hypermethylation of the __SFRP__ genes occurs more often in current a
