Outline of Final Research Achievements |
PITX1 protein was expressed in the tumor of the case with poorly-differentiated uterine cancer. However, no expression of PITX1 in more than 90% of the case with uterine cancer. Therefore, this might be associated with telomerase overexpression. PITX1 expression was detected in normal endometrium. Specific relationships could not be obtained regarding to menstrual cycle and carcinogenesis. I keep on analyzing the data that can be got throughout this period.
