  CHARACTERIZATION OF THE CYTOXIN-ASSOCIATED GENE A (CAGA GENE) IN HELICOBACTER PYLORI USING GASTRIC BIOPSIES
The alignment of the deduced protein sequences confirmed that there were no East Asian type EPIYA-D sequences in Iraqi strains. A significant association was found between increase in number of EPIYA-C motifs and GU compared with gastritis. Otherwise, the number of EPIYA C motifs did not associate with DU, indicating predictive association with the severity of the disease. Conclusions: The structure of the 3' region of the CagA gene in Iraqi strains was Western type with a variable number of EPIYA-C motifs. In 20 strains, the CM motifs were identical to those common in Western strains.

  VASCULAR ENDOTHELIAL GROWTH FACTOR IN OVARIAN SEROUS CANCERS
Ovarian serous carcinomas (OSCs) express vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) in about 80% of cases, although their effect on tumour proliferation was not confirmed. Though the proliferative activity in OSCs is influenced by many growth factors, VEGF increases the intratumoral micro vessel density, thereby having an indirect effect on tumour proliferation.
