WellBeing of Women
Funding Vital Health Research
WellBeing of Women is about life – helping enable it, sustain it and make it the
best quality.
Women are the motivating factor for us and our aim is for women everywhere
to be free of fear and suffering from reproductive problems.
Our determination to meet the health needs of women today is as strong as it
was in 1964 when the charity started.
WellBeing of Women is dedicated to the challenge of raising greater awareness
and securing more support and funds to invest in new medical research in three
key areas of reproductive health:
G
Gynaecological Cancers
G
Pregnancy and Birth
G
Quality of Life problems

High plasma YKL-40 level in patients with ovarian cancer stage III ...

From [147.52.72.117] Last viewed: 25.06.2006
Abstract. YKL-40 (human cartilage glycoprotein-39) is a
member of family 18 glycosyl hydrolases. YKL-40 is a growth
factor and is secreted by cancer cells. High serum levels of
YKL-40 in patients with colorectal cancer and recurrent
metastatic breast cancer have been associated with a poor
prognosis. We evaluated the prognostic value of plasma
YKL-40 in patients with primary ovarian cancer (OC).
YKL-40 was determined by ELISA in plasma obtained
preoperatively from 47 women with stage III OC and in plasma
from 79 healthy females. The results showed that plasma
YKL-40 was elevated compared to healthy females in 57%
of the OC patients and was highest in the patients who died
during the follow-up compared to the patients still alive (186
vs. 78 µ g/l, p=0.002). Patients with high plasma YKL-40
(>130 µ g/l) had significantly (p=0.0003) shorter survival
than patients with normal plasma YKL-40. ...

Abstract. Antizyme is a negative regulator of cellular poly-
amines. The gene for antizyme ( OAZ1 ) is mapped to 19p13.3,
where frequent allelic imbalance (AI) is observed in ovarian
cancer . The potential role of antizyme 1 in ovarian carcino-
genesis was addressed in this study. Mutations of the OAZ1
gene, including the entire coding region and associated
promoter region, were examined in 50 primary ovarian tumors
and 8 ovarian cancer cell lines by PCR-SSCP and sequencing
analyses. A missense mutation in exon 1 and a nucleotide
change at the 3'-UTR were detected in an ovarian cancer cell
line and its derivative cisplatin resistant cell line. No somatic
mutation was detected in primary ovarian tumors, although 7
polymorphic sites were identified. AI of the OAZ1 gene was
detected in 7 of 30 informative cases of primary ovarian cancer
(23%). Subsequent multiplex fluorescent microsatellite ...
