Fibroblast growth factor receptor signaling in hereditary and neoplastic disease: biologic and clinical implications. [PDF]
Fibroblast growth factors (FGFs) and their receptors (FGFRs) are transmembrane growth factor receptors with wide tissue distribution. FGF/FGFR signaling is involved in neoplastic behavior and also development, differentiation, growth, and survival.

DEPDC1 is Highly Expressed in Lung Adenocarcinoma and Promotes Tumor Cell Proliferation
Background and objective Lung cancer is the leading cause of death worldwide, and lung adenocarcinoma is the main subtype of lung cancer. DEP domain-containing 1 (DEPDC1) has been proved to be closely related to the occurrence and development of most ...

XXYLT1 methylation contributes to the occurrence of lung adenocarcinoma
Abstract Background: There is evidence that DNA methylation play major roles in lung cancer. In our previously study, C3 or f21 , also referred to as XXYLT1, rs2131877 polymorphism is associated with a reduced risk of lung adenocarcinoma. So, we explored the role of XXYLT1 methylation in lung adenocarcinoma.

Intra-tumour signalling entropy determines clinical outcome in breast and lung cancer. [PDF]
The cancer stem cell hypothesis, that a small population of tumour cells are responsible for tumorigenesis and cancer progression, is becoming widely accepted and recent evidence has suggested a prognostic and predictive role for such cells. Intra-tumour

Tiptoeing on Metastatic Adenocarcinoma of the Lung [PDF]
Lung cancer remains the top cause of cancer-related death in the United States. Metastases to the distal phalanges are rare. This case illustrates an interesting presentation of metastatic adenocarcinoma of the lung that was mistaken for a benign condition of the toe.

Lung Adenocarcinoma in a Patient with Plasmacytoma [PDF]
An increased risk of second malignancy is well recognized in patients treated for plasma cell neoplasms. However, second solid tumor is very rare in such patients. We report a case of a 68-year-old woman with plasmacytoma who developed lung adenocarcinoma.
