Development of an Inchworm‐Like Dual‐Balloon‐Assisted Colonoscopic Robot Based on a Two‐Segment Extensible Continuum Section

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
This work presents an inchworm‐like dual‐balloon‐assisted colonoscopic robot (IDCR) based on a rod‐driven two‐segment continuum section. The IDCR enables the active straightening of the sigmoid colon through an inchworm‐like locomotion strategy, thereby avoiding loop formation.

Intermittent Chemoprevention of Colon Cancer

open access: yes, 2015
This video shows the advantage of intermittent pulse schedules compared to constant schedules, for the chemoprevention of colon cancer in a computer simulation of cell dynamics in human colon crypts.Supplemental data for a manuscript prepared for ...

Evidence for Two Modes of Synergistic Induction of Apoptosis by Mapatumumab and Oxaliplatin in Combination with Hyperthermia in Human Colon Cancer Cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Colorectal cancer is the third leading cause of cancer-related mortality in the world-- the main cause of death from colorectal cancer is hepatic metastases, which can be treated with isolated hepatic perfusion (IHP).

Metastatic colon cancer derived from a diverticulum incidentally found at herniorrhaphy: a case report

open access: yesSurgical Case Reports, 2018
Background There are few reports of metastases from colon cancer to an inguinal hernia sac, and few reports of colon cancer originating in diverticula. We report a patient with carcinoma of the sigmoid colon arising in two diverticula, who presented with

Halogenated Tryptophans Improve Integrin αVβ6 Affinity of Cyclic RGD Peptides and Provide Handles for Late‐Stage Derivatization

open access: yesChemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
Lighting up αVβ6: Halotryptophan engineering converts an RGD scaffold into a modular αVβ6 ligand platform, enabling picomolar affinity and late‐stage functionalization. The resulting probes combine high selectivity with fluorescence for FACS and tumor imaging.

Calcium Carbonate Suppresses Haem Toxicity Markers without Calcium Phosphate Side Effect on Colon Carcinogenesis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Red meat intake is associated with increased risk of colorectal cancer. We have previously shown that haemin, haemoglobin and red meat promote carcinogen-induced preneoplastic lesions, aberrant crypt foci, in the colon of rats.

Improved Prediction of Colon Cancer Recurrence Using the ColoNode mRNA Test: A 5‐Year Survival Analysis

open access: yesInternational Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Twenty‐five percent of colon cancer patients having curative surgery will recur. Most of them will die from distant metastasis partly due to shortcomings of routine histopathological analysis, that is, undetected tumor cells in the regional lymph node field.

Walking to the Operating Room: A Qualitative Study of Colorectal Cancer Patient Experiences in a Dutch Academic Hospital

open access: yesJournal of Surgical Oncology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background and Objectives This study explores experiences of colorectal cancer (CRC) patients with the Surgery on Foot (SOF) protocol. In contrast to patients being admitted to the hospital the night before surgery, these patients arrive at the hospital on the day of surgery, walk to the operating room, and lie down on the operating table for ...
