Lymphoma is the most common lymphoproliferative disorder in cats. Cutaneous lymphoma, however, is a rare form of extranodal lymphoma. Recently, several cutaneous lymphomas at the tarsal region have been reported in cats. As it differs... more
Breast and prostate cancers preferentially metastasise to bone tissue, with metastatic lesions forming in the skeletons of most patients. On arriving in bone tissue, disseminated tumour cells enter a mechanical microenvironment that is... more
results of a 2:1 control-case observational study using interferon beta and interleukin-2, in addition to first-line hormone therapy, in estrogen receptor-positive, endocrineresponsive metastatic breast cancer patients.
As a field we have made tremendous strides in treating breast cancer, with a decline in the past 30 years of overall breast cancer mortality. However, this progress is met with little affect once the disease spreads beyond the primary... more
Cancer stem cells (CSCs) refer to a subset of tumor cells with the potential to self-renew and differentiate into different cancer subtypes, including leukemias and solid tumors. Dysregulated gene expression and alteration of critical... more
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the most common cancer types and represents a major therapeutic challenge. Although initial events in colorectal carcinogenesis are relatively well characterized and treatment for early-stage disease has... more
In the course of its development, a neoplasm submits to a very important number of pathological processes leading to the loss of some functions, and gaining others, usually changes that reinforce invasion capacity, immunoresistance and... more
Metastatic complications are responsible for more than 90% of cancer-related deaths. The progression from an isolated tumor to disseminated metastatic disease is a multistep process, with each step involving intricate cross talk between... more
Upon activation, platelets secrete more than 300 active substances from their intracellular granules. Platelet dense granule components, such as ADP and polyphosphates, contribute to haemostasis and coagulation, but also play a role in... more
There is now compelling evidence that the tumour stroma plays an important role in the pathogenesis of cancers of epithelial origin. The pre-eminent cell type of the stroma is carcinoma-associated fibroblasts. These cells demonstrate... more
The receptor for advanced glycation end products (RAGE) is highly expressed in various cancers and is correlated with poorer outcome in breast and other cancers. Here we tested the role of targeting RAGE by multiple approaches in the... more
Malignant melanoma is an extremely aggressive and metastatic cancer, highly resistant to conventional treatment modalities. Understanding of fundamental mechanisms responsible for its genesis and progression is critical for development of... more
The immunohistochemical expression of proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) and p53 was investigated in 9 cases of epithelial dysplasia and 38 cases of squamous cell carcinoma of the oral cavity. The intensity of immunoreactivity for... more
The purpose of this review is to highlight several areas of lncRNA biology and cancer that we hope will provide some new insights for future research. These include the relationship of lncRNAs and the epithelial to mesenchymal transition... more
Intermittent hypoxia within tumor microenvironments causes pro-oxidative stress impairing oxidative phos-phorylation (OxPhos) and increases mitochondrial production of reactive oxygen species (ROS). In primary tumors this provokes... more
The proper management of neck in patients with head and neck malignancies is one of the unresolved oncologic questions. Cervical metastasis is one of the major risk factor and the best prognostic indicators for patient with head and neck... more
The ability of cancer to adapt renders it one of the most challenging pathologies of all time. It is the most dreaded pathological entity because of its capacity to metastasize to distant sites in the body, and 90% of all cancer-related... more
Metastasis involves the migration of cancer cells from a primary tumor to invade and establish secondary tumors in distant organs, and it is the main cause for cancer-related deaths. Currently, the conventional cytostatic drugs target the... more
In the last decades radiotherapy induced brain injury has become an emerging issue for physicians. Brain RT-induced injury has been classified, according to its time of onset, into acute, early delayed, and late forms. The... more
Imidazolium trans-tetrachloridodimethylsulfox ideimidazolruthenate(III), NAMI-A, a novel antimetastatic ruthenium complex was investigated towards affinity to transferrin (Tf), whether Tf–Ru adducts might be formed after its... more
The Macroscopic, histological and immunohistochemical aspects of lung acinar adenocarcinoma and the presence of nodules in the abdominal cavity of an adult female bovine are reported. In the necropsy analysis samples were collected from... more
Introducción: Las metástasis cutáneas son diseminaciones de células malignas en la piel de tumores distantes que deben sospecharse en lesiones de rápido crecimiento sin respuesta al tratamiento. Representan un reto clínico pues no tienen... more
Salivary gland tumours constitute about less than 4 % of all head and neck tumours. Pleomorphic adenoma, also called benign mixed tumour, is the most common tumour of the salivary glands. About 80–90 % of these tumours occur in the major... more
Background: Gastrointestinal neuroendocrine tumors (GI-NETs) are potentially malignant tumors, and their most common location of metastasis is the liver. Objectives: In this report, we will describe our experience with some clinical and... more
The vascular basement membrane (BM) is a thin and dense cross-linked extracellular matrix layer that covers and protects blood vessels. Understanding how cells cross the physical barrier of the vascular BM will provide greater insight... more
Cancer of Unknown Primary (CUP) is a malignant widespread metastatic disease, which primary lesion cannot be identified by exact clinical Inspection. We reported a case of metastases from cancer of unknown primary here. A 58-year-old male... more
