IGF axis gene expression patterns are prognostic of survival in epithelial ovarian cancer
1 Sept 2007
Abstract excerpt
The IGF axis has documented growth-promoting effects in various malignancies, but its role in epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) has not been adequately examined. We studied the expression of the IGF axis genes in relation to outcome in EOC. Microarray expression profiles from 64 patients with advanced-stage EOC were used. Two multi-gene subsets were chosen, one upstream of the IGF receptor ('IGF family') and the...
