Molecular typing of epithelial ovarian carcinomas using inflammatory markers - Ali-Fehmi - 2010 - Cancer - Wiley Online Library
Abstract
BACKGROUND:
Ovarian epithelial carcinomas have recently been classified as slow growing type I tumors and rapidly growing highly aggressive type II tumors. The present study sought to molecularly characterize type I and II tumors using known molecular markers.
CONCLUSIONS:
The present study demonstrates that the new proposed histologic classification of ovarian epithelial carcinomas correlates with a distinct expression of inflammatory pathway proteins. High expression of these markers may explain the different biologic behavior of these 2 tumor types and provide targets for therapy.
