tumor staging การใช้

• Decreased dicer mRNA levels correlate with advanced tumor stage.
• RPTOR is overexpressed in pituitary adenoma, and its expression increases with tumor staging.
• MTOR subunits RICTOR and RAPTOR both showed increased expression, which increased with pituitary adenoma tumor staging.
• If cancer is found, this procedure can also be used to determine the extent of its spread ( which is a form of tumor staging ).
• Beyond the racial aspects, Brunetta noted that a large number of cases, 35.4 percent of the total, had to be excluded from the study because of inadequate documentation of the tumor stage at diagnosis.
• It varies inversely with tumor grade; well-differentiated tumors secrete more CEA . CEA is elevated more in tumors with lymph node and distant metastasis than in organ-confined tumors and, thus, varies directly with tumor stage.
• A recent study of a large patient registry from Finland suggests that individuals with MCV-positive MCC's have better tumor stage at the time of diagnosis, the age of the patient, or the location of the tumor rather than any intrinsic difference in disease aggressiveness or response to therapy.
• As survival has been noted to be worse in basaloid variants at earlier tumor stages ( i . e . Stages I and II ), the decreased survival could be attributable to earlier distant metastasis appearing during the natural history of these tumors, as compared to other squamous cell carcinomas and NSCLCs in general.
• Studies from various international working groups have revealed a significantly increased amount of Tumor M2-PK in EDTA-plasma samples of patients with renal, lung, breast, cervical and gastrointestinal tumors ( oesophagus, stomach, pancreas, colon, rectum ), as well as melanoma, which correlated with the tumor stage.
