Anti-Tumor Effects of TRAIL-Expressing Mesenchymal Stromal Cells in a Mouse Xenograft Model of Human Mesothelioma [PDF]
Malignant mesothelioma (MM) remains a highly deadly malignancy with poor treatment option. The MM cells further promote a highly inflammatory microenvironment which contributes to tumor initiation, development, severity, and propagation. We reasoned that

Advances in the diagnosis of pleural disease in lung cancer
Pleural disease in lung cancer can be benign or malignant with the latter carrying a grave prognosis. In this review, we describe and discuss the advances in pleural imaging, procedures, and biomarkers for the diagnosis of pleural diseases in lung cancer.

What's New? Uveal melanoma is the most common primary intraocular cancer in adults, and up to half of patients develop metastatic disease, predominantly in the liver, where prognosis remains poor despite promising treatment options. In this study, the authors evaluated the safety and efficacy of administering systemic therapy within 40 days of liver ...
