Extramedullary relapse (EM) of multiple myeloma (MM) is defined as infiltration of plasma cells (PC) outside of the bone marrow. EM is an aggressive form of the disease with a dismal outcome. We present cytogenetic findings of a 52-year-old female patient who was diagnosed with MM in 2008 and progr...
In this study, we evaluation of incidence of copy number abnormalities (CNAs) with high-desity CGH+SNP microarrays in cohort 26 patients with cervical tumors. Incidence of CNAs was copmared with clinical prognostic factors.
In this paper, we demonstrated the possibility of effective utilization of oligonucleotide-based aCGH as a robust clinical tool for genome-wide scanning and detailed analysis of unbalanced genetic aberrations in 91 MM patients in combination with fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) in detectio...
Head and neck squamous cancer stromal fibroblasts produce growth factors influencing phenotype of normal human keratinocytes. Epithelial-mesenchymal interaction between stromal fibroblasts and cancer cells influences the functional properties of tumor epithelium including the tumor progression and s...
Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is an aggressive tumor type with extremely high mortality (up to 92%) during 5 years after diagnosis. Here, cancer associated fibroblasts (CAF) from PDAC were compared to CAF from melanoma metastases (MELF) and to normal dermal fibroblasts (DF). The analysis w...
We model processes of wound healing and tumor growth, by studying the effects of normal and cancer epithelial cells on normal fibroblasts and their reciprocal effect on normal keratinocytes in vitro. We find strong parallels between the two processes and compare our observations with transcriptional...

With the increasing demand for non-invasive approaches in monitoring of head and neck cancer, circulating nucleic acids have been shown to be a promising tool. We focused on the global transcriptome of serum samples of HNSCC patients in comparison to healthy individuals. We compared gene expression ...
