| Abstract | The expressions of cyclin D1, cyclin E, cyclin-dependent kinase 4 (CDK4), and CDK2 were immunohistochemically examined in 90 patients with human oesophageal squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) to determine their relationship to the tumour behaviour and patient prognosis. Nuclear immunostaining of cyclin D1 and cyclin E was observed in 28 (31.1%) and 27 tumours (30.0%) respectively. Thirty-nine tumours (43.3%) and 31 tumours (34.4%) exhibited both cytoplasmic and nuclear positivity for CDK4 and CDK2 respectively. Of 28 cyclin D1-positive and 27 cyclin E-positive tumours, CDK4 was overexpressed in 12 (42.8%) tumours and CDK2 in seven (25.9%) tumours respectively. There was no significant relationship in immunopositivity between cyclin D1 and CDK4 or between cyclin E and CDK2. Simultaneous immunoreactivity for both cyclin D1 and CDK4 was significantly associated with venous invasion (P < 0.05). In a univariate analysis, the prognosis of patients with tumours that were both cyclin D1- and CDK4-positive was significantly poorer than that of patients with cyclin D1-negative tumours (P < 0.05). In a multivariate analysis, both cyclin D1 and CDK4 immunoreactivities (P < 0.01) and tumour stage (P < 0.001) were recognized as independent risk factors. In this analysis, the hazard ratio for cyclin D1-positive and CDK4-negative cases compared with cyclin D1-negative cases was significant (hazard ratio = 3.128, 95% confidence interval = 1.418–6.899, P = 0.0047). No significant prognostic relevance was detected in both cyclin E and CDK2 immunoreactivity. Our in vivo findings suggest that in human oesophageal SCC, cyclin D1 and cyclin E and their functional partners, CDK4 and CDK2, often exhibit dysregulated overexpression in many cases, and that tumours with simultaneous expression of cyclin D1 and CDK4 are frequently associated with venous invasion and have a worse prognosis, statistically. Moreover, overexpression of cyclin D1 alone may also contribute to tumour progression independent of CDK4 overexpression. © 1999 Cancer Research Campaign |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
