The spread of cancer requires the presence of circulating tumor cells (CTCs), rare cells that are surrounded by billions of hematopoietic cells. More sensitive immunohistochemical and molecular assays have been developed for detection of CTCs. Deng et al. (2008) developed a method for displaying slides that combines the use of fluorescent antibody analysis of cell morphology observed unde…
Invasive urothelial carcinoma is a highly lethal disease. Currently, the treatment is guided by the biological behavior and, in particular by the level of invasion. While the superficial tumors are amenable to local resection, the muscle-invasive are treated with cystectomy. In these cases, neoadjuvant chemotherapy is indicated, but there is a high rate of chemoresistance. The last decade…

Penile carcinoma (PC) is frequently found in developing countries such as Brazil. Patients presenting lymph nodes metastasis have limited and quite ineffective therapeutic options. Usual type squamous cell carcinoma is the most frequent PC, and studies have reported distinct outcomes for distinct variants. Verrucous carcinoma rarely present metastasis, whereas sarcomatoids and basaloids s…
Although the morphologic factors are important for understanding the diagnosis and prognosis of penile carcinoma, the knowledge of the molecular mechanisms involved can add values to that effect. This fact led us to formulate a master's thesis entitled "Clinicopathological correlation of protein expression of complex CD44/ERM (Ezrin/ Radixin/Moesin) in penile carcinoma", which evaluated …

Esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) is the most common histological type of cancer in this organ. ESCC is associated with poor prognosis, because it is usually at advanced stage disease at the moment of diagnosis. Therefore, it is important to identify the molecular markers that determine the most appropriate surgical approach in order to select patients for target-directed therapie…
