Increased expression of connexins 26 and 43 in lymph node metastases of breast cancer
Background: Gap junctions are intercellular channels composed of connexins, which mediate the direct passage of small molecules between neighbouring cells. They are involved in regulation of cell… Expand

Increased Expression of Leptin and the Leptin Receptor as a Marker of Breast Cancer Progression: Possible Role of Obesity-Related Stimuli
Purpose: Recent in vitro studies suggested that the autocrine leptin loop might contribute to breast cancer development by enhancing cell growth and survival. To evaluate whether the leptin system… Expand

Proteolytic-antiproteolytic balance and its regulation in carcinogenesis.
Cancer development is essentially a tissue remodeling process in which normal tissue is substituted with cancer tissue. A crucial role in this process is attributed to proteolytic degradation of the… Expand

Lipid peroxidation and antioxidant status in colorectal cancer.
AIM Reactive oxygen species (ROS) can induce carcinogenesis via DNA injury. Both enzymatic and non-enzymatic parameters participate in cell protection against harmful influence of oxidative stress.… Expand

Overexpression of the obesity hormone leptin in human colorectal cancer
Background: Leptin is an adipocyte-derived neurohormone, high levels of which are found in obese individuals. Leptin controls energy expenditure, acting in the brain, and regulates different… Expand

Connexins 26 and 43 correlate with Bak, but not with Bcl-2 protein in breast cancer.
Apoptosis is a process associated with development and progression of breast cancer. The association between connexins and programmed cell death has only been demonstrated in a few studies. The aim… Expand

Expression of Leptin, Leptin Receptor, and Hypoxia‐Inducible Factor 1α in Human Endometrial Cancer
Abstract:  Recent studies suggested that Ob (Ob) and its receptor (ObR) could be involved in the pathogenesis of various human malignancies, among others in endometrial cancer. Moreover, hypoxia,… Expand

Expression of connexins 26, 32 and 43 in the human colon--an immunohistochemical study.
Gap junctional intercellular communication (GJIC) is a mechanism for direct cell-to-cell signalling and is mediated by gap junctions (GJs), which consist of proteins called connexins (Cxs). GJIC… Expand

Expression of insulin receptor substrate 1 in primary breast cancer and lymph node metastases
Background: Insulin receptor substrate 1 (IRS-1) transmits signals from the insulin-like growth factor I receptor (IGF-IR) and insulin receptor (IR) and has been associated with the pathogenesis of… Expand

Stimulatory effect of cisplatin on production of lipid peroxidation in renal tissues.
Cisplatin (cis-diamminedichloroplatinum II), an anticancer chemotherapeutic agent with the dose-limiting side effect of nephrotoxicity, caused a statistically significant increase in lipid… Expand
