Results: BRMS1 mRNA and protein were higher in 94 and 81%, respectively, of breast cancers than in corresponding...

... between RCC types. Serum EPO and blood Hb did not correlate to the expression of EPO or EPO-R. A positive correlation was found between the expression of EPO and EPO-R (p = 0.028). Survival was not related to tumour EPO, whereas strong EPO-R expression indicated a non-significantly worse prognosis. Serum...

... with benign breast tumours. Using the 95th percentile of the marker levels in patients with benign breast tumours as the cut-off level, marker levels in patients with breast cancer were related to prognosis. In the follow-up period of 6–36 months (mean =17.9 months), 20 out of the 99 patients developed...

The 5-year disease-specific survival rate was 46% in patients with high levels of proMMP-2 versus 23% in patients with low proMMP-2 levels (p = 0.011). Low TIMP-2 levels could...

In conclusion, a combination of SCC-Ag and CYFRA 21-1 may help to identify early-stage cervical cancer patients with occult disease requiring adjuvant therapy.

... benign tissues. Expression levels of livin were associated with prognosis in various malignancies, but livin expression and its prognostic relevance have not been evaluated in renal cell carcinomas (RCC). In a cohort of 152 RCC patients, we analyzed the relative expression of livin and its splicing...

While a high CGA before treatment was found as an unfavorable prognostic determinant, a high ProGRP conferred a survival advantage. The combined use of serum CGA, ProGRP and NSE may supply additional information to prognosis. 10 03...
