MDR1, which is encoded by the ABCB1 gene, involved in multidrug resistance (hydrophobic), as well elimination of xenotoxic agents. The association between gene polymorphisms and breast cancer risk different populations has been described previously; however, results have inconclusive. In this study, we examined 3435 C/T 1236 development Mexican women according to their menopausal status molecular classification. Molecular subtypes allele genotype frequencies were analyzed. A total 248 with...

B7-H6 has been revealed as an endogenous immunoligand expressed in a variety of tumors, but not healthy tissues. Heretofore, no studies have reported describing women with cervical cancer. To investigate this question, our present study was conducted.This retrospective comprised total 62 paraffinized biopsies, which were distributed five groups: low-grade squamous intraepithelial lesions (LSIL), high-grade (HSIL), carcinoma (SCC), uterine adenocarcinoma (UCAC), and group cervicitis (as...

B-cell activating factor (BAFF) is a major cytokine that regulates survival, maturation and differentiation through its binding with receptors: BAFF receptor (BAFF-R), transmembrane activator cyclophilin ligand interactor (TACI) antigen (BCMA). These receptors have been demonstrated to be involved in tertiary lymphoid structure formation; however, their role germinal centers (GCs) has remained elusive. The aim of the present study was determine expression profiles secondary tissues. Tonsils...

Background: The B-cell activating factor (BAFF) controls the maturation and survival of B cells. An imbalance in this cytokine has been associated with systemic autoimmunity SLE lupus nephritis (LN). However, few investigations have evaluated tissular expression BAFF LN. This study aimed to associate system at level proliferative LN classes. Methods: analysis included eighteen kidney tissues, sixteen (class III = 5, class IV 6, III/IV+V 4, V 1), two controls. was an immunochemistry assay. A...

Breast cancer mortality rates in Latin America (LA) are higher than those the United States, possibly because of advanced disease presentation, health care disparities, or unfavorable molecular subtypes. The American Cancer Research Network was established to address these challenges and promote collaborative clinical research. Molecular Profiling Study (MPBCS) aimed evaluate characteristics treatment outcomes LA participants with locally breast (LABC).
