Absence of ST7 mutations in tumor-derived cell lines and tumors
The gene ST7 has been proposed as the multi-tissue tumor-suppressor gene (TSG) at chromosome 7q31.1. However, we have sought and failed to detect the truncating mutations reported to exist in this gene.

New molecular mediators in tumor angiogenesis [PDF]
Angiogenesis is essential for tumor growth and progression. It has been demonstrated that tumor growth beyond a size 1 to 2 mm3 requires the induction of new vessels.

Multidrug resistance (MDR) is the main challenge in cancer treatment. In this sense, we designed transferrin (Tf)-conjugated PLGA nanoparticles (NPs) containing an organoselenium compound as an alternative to enhance the efficacy of cancer therapy and ...

Generation of Luciferase-expressing Tumor Cell Lines
Murine tumor models have been critical to advances in our knowledge of tumor physiology and for the development of effective tumor therapies. Essential to these studies is the ability to both track tumor development and quantify tumor burden in vivo. For this purpose, the introduction of genes that confer tumors with bioluminescent properties has been ...

Exploring functional mechanisms underlying tumor initiation, EMT and cell migration [PDF]
Cancer is one of the leading causes of death. A primary tumor forms when cells start to proliferate in an uncontrolled way and stop reacting to restraining signals.

Experimental Adaptation of Rotaviruses to Tumor Cell Lines
A number of viruses show a naturally extended tropism for tumor cells whereas other viruses have been genetically modified or adapted to infect tumor cells. Oncolytic viruses have become a promising tool for treating some cancers by inducing cell lysis or immune response to tumor cells. In the present work, rotavirus strains TRF-41 (G5) (porcine), RRV (

Pituitary tumor-transforming gene expression is a prognostic marker for tumor recurrence in squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck [PDF]
Background The proto-oncogene pituitary tumor-transforming gene (PTTG) has been shown to be abundantly overexpressed in a large variety of neoplasms likely promoting neo-vascularization and tumor invasiveness.

Meta-analysis of tumor- and T cell-intrinsic mechanisms of sensitization to checkpoint inhibition [PDF]
Checkpoint inhibitors (CPIs) augment adaptive immunity. Systematic pan-tumor analyses may reveal the relative importance of tumor-cell-intrinsic and microenvironmental features underpinning CPI sensitization.

Intracranial transplantation of the tumor induced by adenovirus type 12 in Syrian hamster--an experimental brain tumor model [PDF]
A method of intracranial transplantation of the tumor induced by adenovirus type 12 in syrian hamster has been described. The incidence of intracranial tumor development was 86 (90.5 %) out of 95 animals and the average survival time and tumor size at ...
