Summary

RATIONALE: Studying samples of tumor tissue from patients with cancer in the laboratory may help doctors identify and learn more about biomarkers related to cancer. PURPOSE: This research study is studying at biomarkers in tissue samples from patients with stage I or stage III endometrial cancer.

Detailed description

OBJECTIVES: * To identify microRNA expression patterns associated with lymph node metastasis in samples from patients with endometrial cancer. OUTLINE: Banked tumor tissue specimens are analyzed for microRNA expression profiling by microarray analysis and reverse transcriptase-PCR assays.
