CEA Plasmid as Therapeutic DNA Vaccination against Colorectal Cancer
Background: Human colorectal cancer cells overexpress carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA). CEA is a glycoprotein which has shown to be a promising vaccine target for immunotherapy against colorectal cancer. Objective: To design a DNA vaccine harboring CEA antigen and evaluate its effect on inducing immunity against colorectal cancer cells in tumor bearing mice. <str...
متن کاملNUCL EAR DNA CONTENT AND DNA PLOIDY ANALYSIS IN BREAST CANCER
To investigate the patterns of DNA ploidy and proliferating activity in breast cancer and relate them to other prognostic factors, paraffin blocks of 53 cases of breast carcinoma were studied. Cancer cells obtained by mechanical tissue disaggregation were examined for DNA content, ploidy and S-phase fraction. DNA assay was done using a CAS interactive image analyzing system. All of the cas...
متن کاملabsence of immune response as a sign of tissue tolerance in small-cell lung cancer
background the attention of the scientific community has been recently focused on the role of tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes in non-small-cell cancer and there is a convergence of results, supporting a direct proportionality between lymphocytic infiltrate and good prognosis. objectives the aim of our research was to investigate the immune response around and inside the small-cell lung neoplasti...
متن کاملCirculating cell-free DNA as a prognostic and predictive biomarker in non-small cell lung cancer
Circulating cell-free DNA (cfDNA), which can be obtained from plasma or serum by non-invasive procedures, has showed great potential to predict treatment response and survival for cancer patients. Several studies have assessed the prognostic and predictive value of cfDNA in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). However, these studies were often small and reported varying results. To address this ...
متن کاملpredictive factors of radiation-induced lung toxicity in lung cancer patients: a retrospective study
background: radiation-induced lung toxicity is an important dose-limiting toxicity in lung cancer radiotherapy, for which there are no generally accepted predictive factors. this study seeks to identify risk factors associated with the development of severe radiation-induced lung toxicity using clinical and dosimetric parameters. methods: we reviewed the medical records of 54 patients with hist...
