Introduction. Under the influence of glioma cells, peritumoral zone astrocytes may acquire tumorigenic phenotype, particularly due to the suppression of immunocompetent cells. The aim of the study. Investigate the changes in the gene expression profile of glio…
Introduction. Urological and genital malignant neoplasms in men are an urgent problem. Every year, about 403.3 thousand newly diagnosed cases of kidney cancer and 34.5 thousand of penile cancer are registered in the world. With metabolic atypism, a change in a…
Introduction. The cytostatics, inhibiting the cellular proliferation, are using in clinic for the inhibition of tumor development in patients. However, the adverse events can occur because of the damage of health cells of other tissues. A delay or decrease of …
The article represents a literature review on the molecular genetic methods with routine histological material for clinical purposes within oncology service. The protocol to evaluate the quality of tumor tissue samples for molecular genetic studies is proposed…
Introduction. The main attention of researchers is paid to the study of one of the members of the EGF family – the receptor of epidermal growth factor 2 (Her2/neu), the overexpression of which is detected in 15–20% of cases of invasive breast cancer and had an…
Introduction. In recent years, alternative framework proteins are used for the targeted radionuclide imaging. Molecules of DARPin (Design Ankyrin Repeat Protein) are one of the representatives of scaffolds. Despite the continued increase in the number of molec…
Lung cancer occupies the leading position in at the structure of oncological morbidity in the developed countries. The overall five-year survival rate for lung cancer isn’t exceed to 10–20% even using of the entire modern arsenal of therapeutic methods. Multip…
Currently, glioblastoma is an extremely malignant tumor, for which treatment only temozolomide is relatively effective. Aim to study the expression and variants of coexpression of transcription factors NeuroD1, Prox1, FoxM1, somatostatin receptors of the 2nd a…
Introduction. Multiple primary malignant neoplasms (MPMN) most often develop in individuals with a hereditary predisposition to oncological diseases. There are inherited allelic variants of oncogenes, tumor suppressor genes and their combinations which disrupt…
The review describes the characteristics of the ubiquitin-proteasome system involved in proteins degradation and its role in the transition of pretumor changes of the epithelium to cancer. According to modern concepts, the ubiquitin-proteasome system is active…
Introduction. Alveococcosis is a parasitic disease associated with the formation of the liver tumor-like lesion. This parasitic tumor has infiltrative growth and the ability to metastasize, that is, it exhibits the properties of malignant tumors. The disease i…
Introduction. The molecular mechanisms of the development of tumor pathology of the thyroid gland are associated with the activation of angiogenesis and the development of hypoxia, which contributes to the proliferation, invasion, and progression of the diseas…
The review considers the role of hyaluronic acid (HA), primarily low-molecular-weight fractions of HA, in the regulation of the cell cycle of tumor cells. The formation of a pool of low-molecular weight HA molecules is due to the high activity of hyaluronidase…
Introduction. Based on current literature data, it is possible to assume that when exposed to glioma cells astrocytes, may undergo a reactive transformation. These glioma-conditioned astrocytes might create a permissive environment for tumorigenesis. The aim o…
Background. Lung cancer is the most frequent cause of cancer mortality. The prevailing type is non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), in the treatment of which EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitors are actively used, as well as a combination of BRAF and MEK inhibitors.…
Introduction. Uveal melanoma is a malignant neoplasm of neuroectodermal origin, prone to early metastasis. The tumor microenvironment, including «inflammatory cells» and connective tissue cells, affects its progression, angiogenesis and metastasis. Purpose. To…
Introduction. Thyroid cancer (TC) is the most prevalent cancer among malignant neoplasms of the organs of the endocrine system. Cytological categories Bethesda III–V of TC are considered to be the most difficult for making a diagnosis. Molecular genetic tests …
Cutaneous melanoma is a highly heterogeneous malignancy, which characterized by low effectiveness of chemotherapeutic antitumor agents. 50% of melanomas have a somatic mutation in BRAF oncogene, leading to uncontrolled activation of mitogen-activated protein k…
Introduction. The delay of the adverse events by the use of drugs is an actual medicine task. The cytostatics inhibiting cellular proliferation, are using in a clinic for the hindering tumor development. Thus, the adverse events occur due to the damage of heal…
The review is devoted to the studies of immune check-point (programmed death) molecules – PD-1 receptor and its ligands PD-L1 and PD-L2, which play an important role in the regulation of immune response. Special attention is paid to soluble (s) forms of PD-1 a…
