Is the tumor marker CASA dependent on the menstrual cycle?

Abstract:

:The time course and characteristics of the tumor marker CASA (Cancer Associated Serum Antigen) during the menstrual cycle were analysed. We investigated whether hormonal influences in women and the score of this tumor marker ought to be considered in diagnosis. It could be demonstrated that CASA is not influenced by physiological alterations of the hormonal status in regularly ovulating women.

  • Expression of Zinc Finger and BTB Domain-containing 7A in Colorectal Carcinoma.

    abstract:BACKGROUND/AIM:Previous studies have revealed that zinc finger and BTB domain-containing 7A (ZBTB7A), an important proto-oncogene, plays multiple roles in carcinogenesis and is up-regulated in several human malignancies. However, the expression of ZBTB7A in colorectal carcinoma (CRC) has seldom been documented. In this...
