It has recently attracted attention for targeting tumor cells in several types of tumors. PECAM-1 is an integral membrane protein, a cell adhesion molecule with proangiogenic activity and plays an important role in the process of angiogenesis. The correlation between proangiogenic activity PECAM-1 and antiangiogenic activity PEDF in Non-Small-Cell-Lung Cancer has not been reported. The present study was designed to evaluate using immunohistochemical techniques and multivariate analysis the interplay between PECAM-1 and PEDF in NSCLC, especially in adenocarcinoma and in squamous cell carcinoma stage IA-IIIB. Analyzing the mixed study collectively (n = 69), there was no significant correlation (p = 0.553) between PECAM-1 signal and PEDF area. Only including patients with adenocarcinoma (Figure 2), we found a positive correlation between PECAM-1 signal and PEDF area (p = 0.025). In patients with squamous cell carcinoma, we did not find a significant correlation between PECAM-1 signal and PEDF area (p = 0.530). In patients with squamous cell carcinoma, PECAM-1 and PEDF show a significant different expression pattern, measured via staining intensity (p = 0.013). These results might support the hypothesis that squamous cell carcinomas heavily rely on angiogenic processes."],["dc.identifier.doi","10.4236/ojts.2016.64007"],["dc.identifier.purl","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gs-1/14092"],["dc.identifier.uri","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gro-2/58813"],["dc.language.iso","en"],["dc.notes.intern","Merged from goescholar"],["dc.relation.issn","2164-3067"],["dc.rights","CC BY 4.0"],["dc.rights.uri","https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0"],["dc.title","Interplay between Platelet Endothelial Cell Adhesion Molecule-1 and Pigment Epithelium-Derived Factor in Non-Small-Cell-Lung Cancer"],["dc.type","journal_article"],["dc.type.internalPublication","yes"],["dc.type.version","published_version"],["dspace.entity.type","Publication"]]

After resection of early stage NSCLC, the benefit of adjuvant chemotherapy for patient survival still remains unclear and investigations for further risk stratification are needed for an improved treatment decision. Microvessel density (MVD) influences both the nutrition of the cancer and the access to the bloodstream for the development of distant metastasis. The aim of this study was to examine the prognostic significance of microvessel density by CD31 staining in patients with resected stage IA-IIIB NSCLC. We used immunohistochemistry (IHC) of CD31 to examine the microvessel density in a cohort of 69 patients who had undergone radical resection for NSCLC. Correlation of IHC values and standard clinicopathologic parameters was analyzed as well as influence on long term survival. Survival analysis revealed a significant better overall survival for patients with higher median microvessel density (log rank p = 0.031) independent of clinicopathologic parameters. Regarding primary cancer related death, the survival was again significantly longer in patients with high CD31 count (log rank p = 0.036). A higher microvessel density was a strong predictor for a longer tumor related survival and could be used for therapeutic decisions of adjuvant chemotherapy after resection of early stage NSCLC."],["dc.identifier.doi","10.4236/alc.2016.53003"],["dc.identifier.purl","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gs-1/14089"],["dc.identifier.uri","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gro-2/58810"],["dc.language.iso","en"],["dc.notes.intern","Merged from goescholar"],["dc.relation.issn","2169-2726"],["dc.rights","CC BY 4.0"],["dc.rights.uri","https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0"],["dc.title","Prognostic Significance of CD31 Expression in Patients with Non-Small-Cell-Lung Cancer"],["dc.type","journal_article"],["dc.type.internalPublication","yes"],["dc.type.version","published_version"],["dspace.entity.type","Publication"]]

H1 histones, also called linker histones, stabilize compact, higher order structures of chromatin. In addition to their role as structural proteins, they actively regulate gene expression and participate in chromatin-based processes like DNA replication and repair. The epigenetic contribution of H1 histones to these mechanisms makes it conceivable that they also take part in malignant transformation. Methods: Based on results of a Blast data base search which revealed an accumulation of expressed sequence tags (ESTs) of H1x in libraries from neuroendocrine tumours (NETs), we evaluated the expression of H1x in NETs from lung and the gastrointestinal tract using immunohistochemisty. Relative protein and mRNA levels of H1x were analysed by Western blot analysis and quantitative real-time RT-PCR, respectively. Since several reports describe a change of the expression level of the replacement subtype H1.0 during tumourigenesis, the analysis of this subtype was included in this study. Results: We found an increased expression of H1x but not of H1.0 in NET tissues in comparison to corresponding normal tissues. Even though the analysed NETs were heterogenous regarding their grade of malignancy, all except one showed a considerably higher protein amount of H1x compared with corresponding non-neoplastic tissue. Furthermore, double-labelling of H1x and chromogranin A in sections of pancreas and small intestine revealed that H1x is highly expressed in neuroendocrine cells of these tissues. Conclusion: We conclude that the high expression of histone H1x in NETs is probably due to the abundance of this protein in the cells from which these tumours originate."],["dc.identifier.fs","393612"],["dc.identifier.ppn","590615386"],["dc.identifier.purl","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gs-1/4948"],["dc.identifier.uri","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gro-2/61177"],["dc.language.iso","en"],["dc.notes.intern","Merged from goescholar"],["dc.relation.orgunit","Universitätsmedizin Göttingen"],["dc.rights","Goescholar"],["dc.rights.uri","https://goescholar.uni-goettingen.de/licenses"],["dc.subject.ddc","617"],["dc.title","Histone H1x is highly expressed in human neuroendocrine cells and tumours"],["dc.type","journal_article"],["dc.type.internalPublication","yes"],["dc.type.version","published_version"],["dspace.entity.type","Publication"]]
