Tumor growth with nutrients: stability of the tumor patches [PDF]
arXiv, 2022 In this paper, we study a tumor growth model with nutrients. The contact inhibition for the tumor cells, presented in the model, results in the evolution of a congested tumor patch. We study the regularity of the tumor patch as the nutrients' diffusion strength $D$ diminishes.

Mathematical modeling of tumor therapy with oncolytic viruses: Effects of parametric heterogeneity on cell dynamics [PDF]
, 2006 One of the mechanisms that ensure cancer robustness is tumor heterogeneity, and its effects on tumor cells dynamics have to be taken into account when studying cancer progression.

Circulating tumor cells isolation: The “post-EpCAM era” [PDF]
, 2015 Circulating tumor cells (CTCs) represent a submicroscopic fraction detached from a primary tumor and in transit to a secondary site. The prognostic significance of CTCs in metastatic cancer patients was demonstrated for the first time more than ten years

Tumor neoantigens and tumor immunotherapies
AGING MEDICINEAbstractAs a high‐risk group of patients with cancer, the elderly exhibit limited efficacy with traditional treatments. Immunotherapy emerges as a promising adjunctive therapeutic approach that holds potential in addressing the needs of geriatric patients with cancer.

The architecture of co-culture spheroids regulates tumor invasion within a 3D extracellular matrix [PDF]
arXiv, 2020 Tumor invasion, the process by which tumor cells break away from their primary tumor and gain access to vascular systems, is an important step in cancer metastasis. Most current 3D tumor invasion assays consisted of single tumor cells embedded within an extracellular matrix (ECM). These assays taught us much of what we know today on how key biophysical

Prognostic significance of primary-tumor extension, stage and grade of nuclear differentiation in patients with renal cell carcinoma [PDF]
, 2002 Surgery remains the preferred therapy for renal cell carcinoma. The various adjunctive or complementary therapies currently yield disappointing results. Identifying reliable prognostic factors could help in selecting patients most likely to benefit from ...

Rigorous results of limiting behaviors of total tumor size under cyclic intermittent therapy for the system of reversible phenotype-switchable tumor cells [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 We are keenly interested in finding the limiting behaviors of total tumor size when tumor cells are subject to the periodic repetition of therapy and rest periods, called intermittent cyclic therapy. We hypothesize that each tumor cell can take either therapy-sensitive or therapy-tolerant phenotype, its phenotype transition is mainly driven by the ...

Targeting tumor multicellular aggregation through IGPR-1 inhibits colon cancer growth and improves chemotherapy [PDF]
, 2017 Adhesion to extracellular matrix (ECM) is crucially important for survival of normal epithelial cells as detachment from ECM triggers specific apoptosis known as anoikis.
