Expression of a proliferating antigen by KI-67 immunohistochemistry was analyzed with a SAMBA 2005 computer-assisted image processor (Traitement de l'Information for des Techniques Nouvelles, Grenoble, France) in 47 surgically resected bronchopulmonary carcinoids embedded in paraffin. The clinicopathologic characteristics and KI-67 labeling, expressed in percentage of stained nuclear surface relative to the total nuclear surface, of 31 typical carcinoids and 16 atypical carcinoids were compared and assessed with respect to patient survival. The proliferation status was significantly higher in histologically atypical than in typical carcinoids. Moreover, using a 4% cutoff, we observed a significant difference for the 4-year overall survival rate. Semiquantitative analysis of the proliferation index by KI-67 immunostaining seemed to be an effective means of identifying high risk subsets among patients with histologically atypical carcinoids and for whom adjuvant chemotherapy could be proposed.

D009363 Neoplasm Proteins Proteins whose abnormal expression (gain or loss) are associated with the development, growth, or progression of NEOPLASMS. Some neoplasm proteins are tumor antigens (ANTIGENS, NEOPLASM), i.e. they induce an immune reaction to their tumor. Many neoplasm proteins have been characterized and are used as tumor markers (BIOMARKERS, TUMOR) when they are detectable in cells and body fluids as monitors for the presence or growth of tumors. Abnormal expression of ONCOGENE PROTEINS is involved in neoplastic transformation, whereas the loss of expression of TUMOR SUPPRESSOR PROTEINS is involved with the loss of growth control and progression of the neoplasm. Proteins, Neoplasm
D009687 Nuclear Proteins Proteins found in the nucleus of a cell. Do not confuse with NUCLEOPROTEINS which are proteins conjugated with nucleic acids, that are not necessarily present in the nucleus.

D002276 Carcinoid Tumor A usually small, slow-growing neoplasm composed of islands of rounded, oxyphilic, or spindle-shaped cells of medium size, with moderately small vesicular nuclei, and covered by intact mucosa with a yellow cut surface. The tumor can occur anywhere in the gastrointestinal tract (and in the lungs and other sites); approximately 90% arise in the appendix. It is now established that these tumors are of neuroendocrine origin and derive from a primitive stem cell.
