Receptors for hyaluronic acid and poliovirus: a combinatorial role in glioma invasion? [PDF]
BACKGROUND: CD44 has long been associated with glioma invasion while, more recently, CD155 has been implicated in playing a similar role. Notably, these two receptors have been shown closely positioned on monocytes.

Mathematical modelling of cancer invasion : implications of cell adhesion variability for tumour infiltrative growth patterns [PDF]
Cancer invasion, recognised as one of the hallmarks of cancer, is a complex, multiscale phenomenon involving many inter-related genetic, biochemical, cellular and tissue processes at different spatial and temporal scales.

Gelsolin induces colorectal tumor cell invasion via modulation of the urokinase-type plasminogen activator cascade [PDF]
Gelsolin is a cytoskeletal protein which participates in actin filament dynamics and promotes cell motility and plasticity. Although initially regarded as a tumor suppressor, gelsolin expression in certain tumors correlates with poor prognosis and ...

Thermal monitoring: Invasive, minimal-invasive and non-invasive approaches
Thermal treatments need verification of effectiveness. Invasive intra-tumoural thermometry was established as a standard method several years ago. However, in deep heating, invasive techniques have disadvantages. Therefore, alternatives have been suggested and are under development.In three phase II studies treating rectal cancer, cervical cancer and ...

Expression of Plasmodium falciparum genes involved in erythrocyte invasion varies among isolates cultured directly from patients. [PDF]
Plasmodium falciparum merozoites invade erythrocytes using a range of alternative ligands that includes erythrocyte binding antigenic proteins (EBAs) and reticulocyte binding protein homologues (Rh).

A clinicopathological study of perineural invasion and vascular invasion in oral tongue squamous cell carcinoma [PDF]
The risk factors for recurrence of head and neck cancer are classified as being of high or intermediate risk. Those of intermediate risk include multiple positive nodes without extracapsular nodal spread, perineural/vascular invasion, pT3/T4 primary ...

Contribution of 3q26-29 gene cluster to glioma invasion [PDF]
Diffuse gliomas are the most common and lethal brain tumors. Cell invasion into the surrounding brain tissue is a hallmark feature of glioma. Understanding the mechanism of glioma invasion could lead to the discovery of novel therapeutic strategies to ...
