    Abstract: Background: Emerging evidence indicates a potential role of anti-oxidant enzymes in the prevention of bladder cancer. Aims: This study assessed the correlation between the anti-oxidative enzymes with bladder cancer incidence. The present study was aimed to estimate the levels of superoxide dismutase, glutathione peroxidase, catalase and xanthine ox... Show More

    Abstract: Background: Resistance to chemotherapeutic drugs complicates the treatment of cancer patients. The extracellular matrix protein osteopontin (OPN) plays multiple roles in the proliferation and metastasis of cancer cells. We therefore attempted to determine whether OPN expression correlated with drug resistance. Methods: OPN expression in the HCT 116... Show More
