In the present study, we compared the dynamics and composition of microtubules in cell lines derived from the human breast adenocarcinoma MCF-7 containing either the wild-type p53 (wt-p53; MN1) or a dominant-negative variant of p53 gene (mut-p53; MDD2).
The incidence of topoisomerase II-alpha genomic alterations in adenocarcinoma of the breast and their relationship to human epidermal growth factor receptor-2 gene amplification: a fluorescence in situ hybridization study.
In this case report, the hyperestrogenemia may have further increased the BrCa risk in a patient with other risk factors (BRCA-1 mutation and chromosome 9 inversion, which has been previously shown to impinge upon testicular function and intracrine balance of androgens vs. estrogens).
The semi-quantitative PCR-based assay was used to determine the lesion frequencies produced by carboplatin in the 696-bp fragment of the 3'-region of BRCA1 gene and in the 3,426-bp fragment of the BRCA1 exon 11 of human breast adenocarcinoma MCF-7 cells.
The most active compounds 3h (IC<sub>50</sub> = 0.067 μM against MCF-7) and 3l (IC<sub>50</sub> = 0.027 μM against HepG2) were further tested for Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor (EGFR) inhibitory activity.
As a result, overexpression of the HIF-1alpha subunit in biopsy specimens is associated with increased patient mortality in several common cancers, including breast adenocarcinoma and oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma.
Antitumor activity for the prepared compounds against human breast adenocarcinoma (MCF-7), liver (HEPG2) and colon (HCT116) cancer cell lines was evaluated using SRB assay method.
Novel Mannich base derivatives of glabridin were synthesized and their antiproliferative activity were performed along with our previously reported glabridin-chalcone hybrids molecules (GCHMs) against various human cell lines MDA-MB-231 (breast adenocarcinoma), HEK-293 (embryonic kidney cell line), K562 (leukemia), MCF-7 (breast adenocarcinoma), HeLa (cervix adenocarcinoma), HepG2 (hepatocellular carcinoma) and WRL-68 (hepatic carcinoma).
Adenoviral vectors expressing inducible Caspase-9 (iCaspase-9) under transcriptional regulation with the endothelial cell-specific vascular endothelial growth factor receptor-2 (VEGFR2) promoter (Ad-hVEGFR2-iCaspase-9) induced apoptosis of proliferating human dermal microvascular endothelial cells (HDMECs), but not human tumor cells (UM-SCC-17B, head and neck squamous cell carcinoma; HepG2, hepatocellular carcinoma; PC-3, prostate adenocarcinoma; SLK, Kaposi's sarcoma; MCF-7, breast adenocarcinoma).
Here, we show in a p53-null mouse model of sporadic invasive breast adenocarcinoma that heterozygosity for Tip60 deletion promotes mammary tumorigenesis.
Sequence analysis of clones obtained from a human breast adenocarcinoma MCF7 cDNA library suggests that at least three mRNA transcripts, differing in their 3'-untranslated regions, are transcribed from the hAG-2 gene.
Based on this information, we developed specific primers and probes for NDRG1 mRNA variants using bioinformatics analysis, and investigated how DFO and PHEN affected the dynamics of NDRG1 variant on the cell lines of Human Breast Adenocarcinoma (MCF-7) and Hepatocellular Carcinoma (HepG2) that demonstrate opposite action for the relationship NDRG1-metastasis.
In the present study, we compared the dynamics and composition of microtubules in cell lines derived from the human breast adenocarcinoma MCF-7 containing either the wild-type p53 (wt-p53; MN1) or a dominant-negative variant of p53 gene (mut-p53; MDD2).
Regarding molecular factors, all driver mutations in lung adenocarcinoma had a favorable effect (EGFR, HR 0.53, 95%CI 0.31-0.89; ALK, HR 0.28, 95%CI 0.12-0.66; KRAS, HR 0.65, 95%CI 0.47-0.92), triple negative status predicted poor prognosis in breast adenocarcinoma (HR 2.04, 95%CI 1.13-3.69), while no effect of BRAF/NRAS mutations was demonstrated in melanoma BMs.
Also, the method was applied to the assay of p53 in human plasma sample and normal and malignant cell line lysates such as (L929 normal cell Line from mouse C3H (L929), colon cancer cell-HCT, prostate cancer cell line PC-3, and human breast adenocarcinoma cell line-MCF7).
We have investigated the relationship between the development of tumor resistance towards the cytotoxic action of tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF) and p53 function, using the TNF-sensitive MCF7 human breast adenocarcinoma cell line and two TNF-resistant sublines, MCF7/R-A1 and MCF7/Adr.
Regarding molecular factors, all driver mutations in lung adenocarcinoma had a favorable effect (EGFR, HR 0.53, 95%CI 0.31-0.89; ALK, HR 0.28, 95%CI 0.12-0.66; KRAS, HR 0.65, 95%CI 0.47-0.92), triple negative status predicted poor prognosis in breast adenocarcinoma (HR 2.04, 95%CI 1.13-3.69), while no effect of BRAF/NRAS mutations was demonstrated in melanoma BMs.
Fifty patients with typical infiltrating ductal adenocarcinoma of the breast were studied for amplification of the c-erb B-2 (neu/HER-2) oncogene within the tumor DNA.
We report the case of an 82-year-old male patient with a > 8-year history of prostate cancer (PrCa), who developed breast adenocarcinoma (BrCa) (Ki-67+ and negative for ER, PR, PSA and HER2/neu) after prolonged (approximately 7-year) anti-androgen (flutamide) monotherapy for locally advanced PrCa.
Patients ≥ 18 years of age with histologically-confirmed HER2-positive adenocarcinoma of the breast (clinical T1-T3, N0-N2, M0), normal left ventricular ejection fraction, and adequate organ function received trastuzumab 6 mg/kg intravenous (I.V.)
Fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) as primary methodology for the assessment of HER2 Status in adenocarcinoma of the breast: a single institution experience.
This observational study was conducted in patients with HER2-positive breast adenocarcinoma ≤1.5 cm who received trastuzumab-based adjuvant treatment in clinical practice.
