Prognostic relevance of Ki-67 and P16/INK4a markers in histological diagnosis of cervical dysplasia by T. A. Dimitriadi, D. V. Burtsev, E. A. Dzhenkova, T. N. Gudtskova, K. V. Dvadnenko

“…The use of an IHC study with Ki‑67 and p16/INK4a, in addition to the standard histological examination, makes it possible to objectify the initial diagnosis of the degree of CIN, as well as to identify patients with a high and low risk of developing severe injuries. This is especially true for the CIN2 group, the most problematic in terms of histological evaluation and tactics of clinical management of patients. …”

Stemness-related gene signatures as a predictive tool for breast cancer radiosensitivity by Jinzhi Lai, Rongfu Huang, Jingshan Huang

“…Key genes identified in the radiosensitivity signature were validated in vitro by qRT-PCR.ResultsBy analyzing gene expression data from 920 BRCA samples, we identified a set of 267 stemness-related genes between high and low mRNAsi groups. Based on these genes, a radiosensitivity signature comprising two stemness-related genes (EMILIN1 and CYP4Z1) was constructed, stratifying patients into radiosensitive (RS) and radioresistant (RR) groups. …”
