Telomerase activity was weakly positive (6%) in only 2 out of 32 samples of normal renal cortex tissues and positive in 6 paracancer tissues (19%), the difference was conspicuous (P<0.01).Conclusion: The positive rate of telomerase activity was significantly higher in renal cell carcinoma tissues and might serve as a prognostic marker for estimating the biologic characteristics of renal cell carcinoma.展开更多

Compared with the groups of adjacent noncancerous and benign lesions,there was a significant difference among three types of tissues(P<0.05).The positive rates of expression of p53 and bcl-2 in the group with positive expression of hTERT were 64.28%and 61.90%,respectively,and their difference was significant compared with the negative group(P<0.05). Conclusion:There is a correlation between the activation of telomerases and p53 gene mutation in the development of breast cancer,and they are perhaps relation to the down regulation of bcl-2.展开更多
