Proliferation and cell–cell fusion of endometrial carcinoma are induced by the human endogenous retroviral Syncytin-1 and regulated by TGF-β

TL;DR: Results showed that induced TGF-β could override Syncytin-1-mediated cell–cell fusions, which may contribute to the etiology of EnCa progression and also help to clarify the regulation of cell– cell fusions occurring in development and in other syncytial cell tumors.
Journal Article

An Interleukin-6 Gene Promoter Polymorphism Influences the Biological Phenotype of Ovarian Cancer

TL;DR: It is concluded that the mutant -174 C allele of IL6 influences the biological phenotype of ovarian cancer because it is associated with early stage and improved DFS and overall survival.
Journal ArticleDOI

Patients' attitudes to totally implantable venous access port systems for gynecological or breast malignancies.

TL;DR: Port catheters are well accepted by patients for chemotherapy and supportive cancer care and should be rapidly removed after the end of antineoplastic treatment in order to improve patients' satisfaction with the procedure.
Journal ArticleDOI
