Functional radical cervical dissection for differentiated thyroid cancer: the experience of a single center [PDF]

, 2018
There is ongoing debate regarding the role of neck dissection in differentiated thyroid cancer, about its usefulness in elective settings, and the increased costs regarding morbidity and operative time.

Laparoscopic resection of gastric GISTs. Where do we stand now? A single-centered experience [PDF]

, 2019
Introduction. Gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) represent a rare type of gastrointestinal neoplasms. Resection with negative margins has been established as a mainstay treatment, but laparoscopic resections are still open to debate.

Breast cancer metastasis and the lymphatic system

Oncology Letters, 2015
Breast cancer remains the leading cause of cancer mortality worldwide, despite a significant decline in death rates due to early detection. The majority of cancer mortalities are due to the metastasis of tumor cells to other organs. Metastasis or tumor cell dissemination occurs via the hematogenous and lymphatic systems.

ETV2 Mediated Differentiation of Human Pluripotent Stem Cells Results in Functional Endothelial Cells for Engineering Advanced Vascularized Microphysiological Models

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
A robust method to generate functional human iPSC‐derived endothelial cells using inducible ETV2 expression. These cells self‐organize into stable, lumenized microvascular networks within microfluidic chips, surpassing conventional differentiation methods.

B Lymphocytes Promote Lymphogenous Metastasis of Lymphoma and Melanoma

Neoplasia: An International Journal for Oncology Research, 2011
The prognosis of patients with many types of cancers correlates with the degree of metastasis to regional lymph nodes (LNs) and vital organs. However, the mechanisms and route of cancer cell metastasis are still unclear.

Lymphatic expression of CLEVER-1 in breast cancer and its relationship with lymph node metastasis [PDF]

, 2011
BACKGROUND Mechanisms regulating breast cancer lymph node metastasis are unclear. Staining of CLEVER-1 (common lymphatic endothelial and vascular endothelial receptor-1) in human breast tumors was used, along with in vitro techniques, to assess ...

Tumor-derived lymphangiogenic factors and lymphatic metastasis

Biomedicine & Pharmacotherapy, 2007
Lymphatic endothelial cells (LECs) originally differentiated from venous endothelial cells express several specific makers that distinguish them from the blood vessels. Lymphangiogenesis, a complex process of sprouting of new lymphatic vessels, is regulated by multiple direct and indirect growth factors. Vascular endothelial growth factor-C (VEGF-C) is

Common Signatures of Altered Gene Regulation and Invasiveness of Different Breast Cancer Cell Lines after Matrix Interface Crossing

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Interface transmigration reprograms triple‐negative breast cancer cells, triggering a shared switch toward more aggressive and invasive phenotypes. Using a collagen I interface model, this study identifies shared transcriptional changes involving proliferation, chromatin remodeling, and DNA repair pathways.

Recent advances in lymphatic targeted drug delivery system for tumor metastasis

Cancer Biology & Medicine, 2014
The lymphatic system has an important defensive role in the human body. The metastasis of most tumors initially spreads through the surrounding lymphatic tissue and eventually forms lymphatic metastatic tumors; the tumor cells may even transfer to other ...

Investigating the Effects of Shear Stress on the Protein Expression of Lymphatic Endothelial Cells (LECs) [PDF]

, 2018
The lymphatic system plays three main important roles: Its cells are primarily responsible for the immune response of the human body, it represents a separate circulatory system, and it is involved in the transport of select nutrients from the digestive ...
