Ultrasounds in cancer therapy: A summary of their use and unexplored potential
Ultrasounds (US) are a non-ionizing mechanical wave, with less adverse effects than conventional pharmacological or surgical treatments. Different biological effects are induced in tissues and cells by ultrasound actuation depending on acoustic ...

Abstract One of the questions most frequently asked of physicians by patients concerns prognosis. Markers of solid tumors are the best prognosticators of the course of these tumors. The effect of these markers on the host will have a substantial impact on prognosis by affecting the performance status of the patient.

Gene and protein expression of glucose transporter 1 and glucose transporter 3 in human laryngeal cancer—the relationship with regulatory hypoxia-inducible factor-1α expression, tumor invasiveness, and patient prognosis [PDF]
Increased glucose uptake mediated by glucose transporters and reliance on glycolysis are common features of malignant cells. Hypoxia-inducible factor-1α supports the adaptation of hypoxic cells by inducing genes related to glucose metabolism.

LGR5 is associated with tumor aggressiveness in papillary thyroid cancer. [PDF]
PurposeLeucine-rich repeat-containing G-protein-coupled receptor 5 (LGR5) is a cancer stem cell marker and a down-stream target in Wnt/β-catenin signaling. In human papillary thyroid cancer (PTC), over activation of Wnt/β-catenin has been associated with
