Human Gene Set: KEGG_ENDOMETRIAL_CANCER


Standard name KEGG_ENDOMETRIAL_CANCER
Systematic name M19877
Brief description Endometrial cancer
Full description or abstract Two types of endometrial carcinoma are distinguished with respect to biology and clinical course. Type-I carcinoma is related to hyperestrogenism by association with endometrial hyperplasia, frequent expression of estrogen and progesterone receptors and younger age, whereas type-II carcinoma is unrelated to estrogen, associated with atrophic endometrium, frequent lack of estrogen and progesterone receptors and older age. This classification has also been justified at the molecular level with Type 1 tumours being more commonly associated with abnormalities of DNA-mismatch repair genes, K-ras, PTEN and beta-catenin, and Type 2 tumours with abnormalities of p53 and HER2/neu.

Version history  

The content of the gene sets in the KEGG_LEGACY collection has not been updated since KEGG restricted their usage terms in 2011. More recent sets are available in the KEGG_MEDICUS collection, derived from KEGG's openly available MEDICUS subset.
