Correlation of expression of Ki-67, EGFR, c-erbB-2, MMP-9, p53, bcl-2, CD34 and cell cycle analysis with survival in head and neck squamous cell cancer.
From the observations it is suggested that the immunodetection of both p53 and bcl-2 proteins in squamous cell carcinoma of the uterine cervix can be used as an independent diagnostic marker for cervical cancer associated with HPV infection.
Immunohistochemical expression of p53, Bcl-2, Bax, and Fas proteins in squamous cell carcinomas from immunosuppressed renal transplant recipients and immunocompetent individuals.
Single-nucleotide polymorphisms at the TP53-binding or responsive promoter regions of BAX and BCL2 genes and risk of squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck.
The present results suggest that the expression of Bcl-2 protein and AM in invasive squamous carcinoma may play crucial roles in selecting carcinoma cells resistant to apoptosis and in promoting malignant progression.
