摘要: Amplification and overexpression of the cell cycle-related gene cyclin D1 have been demonstrated in several human malignancies shown to be directly oncogenic breast epithelium lymphocytes. Overexpression can occur absence amplification. We investigated whether is overexpressed a panel 43 sporadic epithelial ovarian cancers using immunohistochemistry. Cyclin was 26% these tumors. associated with borderline or well-differentiated, grade 1 tumors but does not correlate particular histological type, c-erb-B2 oncogene, presence estrogen receptors. It suggested that may contribute pathogenesis cancers, including subset different from those overexpressing oncogene.
