Do genomic aberrations relate early and advanced stage ovarian cancer?
This study indicates that advanced stage ovarian cancer either progresses from early stage or from a common precursor lesion but that they do not arise from distinct carcinogenic molecular events. Furthermore, we show that array comparative genomic hybridization has the potential to identify clinically distinct patients.
HBP activated by GlcN increases PAI-1 expression and eNOS uncoupling depending on p38mapk, which not only explains hyperglycemic vascular complications, but also may bring into question the clinical use of GlcN. The present results, support currently ongoing clinical application of p38mapk inhibitor in patients with cardiovascular disease.
