... ligand-1 (sPD-L1) concentration in patients with esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC), and confirmed the PD-L1 expression in resected specimens. Methods: Blood samples were collected from 73 patients with histologically proven ESCC. The serum levels of sPD-L1 were measured using an enzyme-linked...

..., a transcriptional regulator of epidermal differentiation, has been identified as a tumor suppressor in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC). The aim of the present study was to investigate the clinical and prognostic significance of ZNF750 expression and to evaluate the effect of ZNF750 knockdown on cell...

... Gillespie; Nabil F. Saba Objectives: Esophageal adenosquamous carcinoma (ASC) is a rare tumor with characteristics of adenocarcinoma (AC) and squamous cell carcinoma (SCC), the two most common esophageal cancers. Its behavior is aggressive but poorly understood. Using the National Cancer Database (NCDB...

... suppressor of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC). Although a correlation between the epidermal differentiation gene and resistance to chemoradiotherapy (CRT) has been posited, no data regarding the ZNF750 status in ESCC have been reported. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the relationship...

No partial or complete response was observed in the 10 patients treated. The toxicity was unusual and mild to moderate considering...

... cells. Immunohistochemical analysis with anti-rat NDP kinase (NDP kinase α, NDP kinase β) monoclonal antibodies was performed in deparaffinized sections of 56 specimens of oral squamous cell carcinoma. Detection of these NDP kinases in tissue samples was correlated with clinical and histo-pathological...

...Peter M. Gocze; Helmut W. Vahrson; Dale A. Freeman In the present study we evaluated the clinical usefulness of the tumor antigens, squamous cell carcinoma antigen (SCC) and ovarian carcinoma antigen (CA 125), in populations of patients with benign and malignant cervical disease. SCC and CA 125...

...Tetsuya Kusumoto; Yoshihisa Sakaguchi; Yoshihiko Maehara; Tadashi Nakashima; Motonosuke Furusawa; Keizo Sugimachi The chemosensitivities of squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) tissues from the head and neck area were compared to findings of adenocarcinoma, mainly from digestive organs. The sensitivity...

The Ki-67 labeling rates before radiation therapy and at radiation doses of 10 and 20 Gy ranged from 21 to 71% (mean: 35.0%), from 7 to 49% (mean: 25.8%) and from 1 to 44% (mean: 14.8%), respectively. One of the 2 patients whose tumors...
