Introduction. PI3K/Akt signaling pathway is an important intracellular regulatory mechanism controlling cues of growth factors stimuli, apoptosis, proliferation, and cell motility. Deregulation of activity/expression of PI3K/Akt signaling pathway proteins dete…
Introduction. Insulin-like growth factor signaling system plays a major role in the development and progression of various malignant tumors including ovarian cancer, and its components are considered as potential diagnostic and prognostic markers and objects o…
Introduction. Thymidylate synthase (TS) is a key enzyme in nucleotide biosynthesis and is the main intracellular target of 5-FU. We investigated the clinical and prognostic importance of TYMS gene 5' (TSR2/TSR3 and G>C) and 3' (del 6) untranslated region polym…
Introduction. Skeletal involvement is a frequent and troublesome complication of breast malignant tumors. The accurate diagnosis of bone metastasis and well-timed prescription of the antiresorptive therapy are essential for reducing both severity and mortality…
Introduction. The COMT gene encodes for a protein involved in deactivation of genotoxic estrogen species, and the protein product encoded by the L (low activity) allele is 3–5-fold less active than its counterpart encoded by the H (high activity) allele. The a…
Introduction. Breast cancer pathogenesis is associated with alterations in processes of regulating of IGF effects and also in IGF-signaling pathway activation. The direct correlation between high IGF blood serum levels and the rescue of malignancies in prostat…
Introduction. Insulin-like growth factors (IGFs) signaling system plays a key role in development and progression of various malignant tumors, and its components may be considered as prospective diagnostic and prognostic markers and potential objects of target…
The content of VEGF and some components of plasminogen activation system (uPA, PAI-1 and tPA) was determined by enzyme immunoassay methods in the tumors from 121 endometrial cancer patients and in 18 samples of endometrial hyperplasia. Concentrations of uPA an…
A literature review is devoted to the analysis of clinical significance of key factors of neoangiogenesis in ovarian cancer patients, their connection with the main clinical and morphological characteristics of the disease, prognosis, features an anti-angiogen…
Early diagnosis of ovarian cancer (OC) remains to be the actual problem in modern oncology due to the high mortality rate, asymptomatic course of the disease in the early stages and its aggressiveness. The aim was to study the genetic polymorphism of pathogene…
Venous thromboembolism (VTE) is a frequent complication associated with increased mortality in cancer patients. The basic role in pathogenesis of thrombotic complication in cancer patients is played by changes in the hemostatic system caused by the tumor itsel…
Associations between matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) 2, 7, 9, tissue MMP inhibitor TIMP-1 and plasminogen activation system components (uPA, tPA and PAI-1) plasma and/or tumor levels in colorectal cancer (CRC) patients were evaluated in order to reveal their po…
The dependence of biochemical markers of bone resorption (C-terminal telopeptide of type I collagen – b-CTx, deoxypyridinoline – DPID, tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP) 5b) and osteosynthesis (bone alkaline phosphatase – BALP) on clinical manifestatio…
The associations of polymorphic markers of the xenobiotics – metabolizing genes (GSTТI, GSTМI, GSTPI), cell cycle regulation genes (ТР53,CDKNI) and of the gene XRCCI repairing damaged DNA bases in 54 healthy subjects and 50 patients with upper respiratory trac…
