Angiogenesis is crucial for tumor biology. There are many mechanisms by which tumors
induce angiogenesis. We hypothesize that each individual tumor develops a unique …

Background Ets1 is an oncogene that functions as a transcription factor and regulates the
activity of many genes potentially important for tumor initiation and progression. Interestingly …

Objective This study aimed to assess the prognostic role of vascular endothelial growth
factor (VEGF) expression in osteosarcoma. Methods Systematic searches of PubMed …

Expression of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) has been reported in renal cell
carcinoma (RCC), a highly angiogenic carcinoma. However, little or no information is …

Carcinogenic transformation of cells in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) is
characterized on molecular level by, among other things, changes in protein expression …

Recurrence is a significant clinical problem for patients with rectal cancer treated with
adjuvant chemoradiation. Previous studies have suggested that determining intratumoral …

Background Cancer stem cells (CSCs) are widely abundant and considered to be an
important factor in therapy resistance. They are also promising potential targets for …

Objective: The aim of this study was to quantitatively assess the impact of VEGF
overexpression on prognosis in patients with esophageal cancer (EC). Methods: A meta …

Regulation of the gene expression of Stromelysin-1 (matrix metalloproteinase-3), a member
of the matrix metalloproteinase family, is critical for tissue homeostasis. The Stromelysin-1 …

Background: Fascin, an actin-bundling protein forming actin bundles including filopodia and
stress fibers, is overexpressed in multiple human epithelial cancers including esophageal …
