Metastatic niche shaped by host factors influences disseminated cancer cell fate

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Metastasis is shaped not only by cancer cells but also by the environments they encounter. This review explores how factors such as aging, diet, the microbiome, lifestyle, and environmental exposures remodel organ‐specific niches in the lung, liver, bone, and brain, influencing where metastatic cells survive, remain dormant, or grow, and ultimately ...

Comparison of a new and existing method of mammographic density measurement: intramethod reliability and associations with known risk factors.

, 2007
BACKGROUND: Mammographic density is one of the strongest risk factors for breast cancer. It is commonly measured by an interactive threshold method that does not fully use information contained in a mammogram.

Are Breast Density and Bone Mineral Density Independent Risk Factors for Breast Cancer? [PDF]

JNCI Journal of the National Cancer Institute, 2005
Mammographic breast density and bone mineral density (BMD) are markers of cumulative exposure to estrogen. Previous studies have suggested that women with high mammographic breast density or high BMD are at increased risk of breast cancer. We determined whether mammographic breast density and BMD of the hip and spine are correlated and independently ...

Neutralization of the PTX3/CD44 axis suppresses TGF‐β1 signaling in kidney fibrosis

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This study investigates how the PTX3/CD44 axis promotes kidney fibrosis by activating TGF‐β1 signaling. We demonstrate that the neutralizing antibody WHC‐001 effectively inhibits this pathway, suppressing myofibroblast activation and partial epithelial–mesenchymal transition (EMT).

Quantitative Analysis for Breast Density Estimation in Low Dose Chest CT Scans

, 2017
A computational method was developed for the measurement of breast density using chest computed tomography (CT) images and the correlation between that and mammographic density. Sixty-nine asymptomatic Asian women (138 breasts) were studied.

Opportunistic retrospective assessment of HUAC, bone density, SFT and breast density on CT images and relationship with severity of COVID-19

Journal of Mind and Medical Sciences, 2023
Aim. To evaluate mean Hounsfield unit calculation (HUAC), bone density, subcutaneous fat thickness (SFT), breast density (constitutional imaging biomarkers) and age in symptomatic patients with COVID-19, to assess their correlation with pneumonia ...

Pathological macroscopic evaluation of breast density versus mammographic breast density in breast cancer conserving surgery

European Journal of Obstetrics & Gynecology and Reproductive Biology: X, 2023
Correlation between imaging and anatomopathological breast density has been superficially explored and is heterogeneous in current medical literature. It is possible that mammographic and pathological findings are divergent. The aim of this study is to evaluate the association between breast density classified by mammography and breast density of ...

Going viral − Virus‐targeting nanobodies for research, diagnostics and therapy

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The increasing prevalence of viral diseases represents a major threat for global human health. Nanobodies, small binding fragments derived from camelid heavy‐chain antibodies, offer versatile tools for viral research, diagnostics, and antiviral therapy.

Rapid Breast Density Analysis of Partial Volumes of Automated Breast Ultrasound Images

, 2014
Rapid volume density analysis (RVDA) for automated breast ultrasound (ABUS) has been proposed as a more efficient method for estimating breast density. In the current experiment, ABUS images were obtained for 67 breasts from 40 patients.
