Tumor cell dormancy as an adaptive cell stress response mechanism
Metastases are responsible for most cancer-related deaths. The kinetics of tumor relapse is highly heterogeneous, ranging from recurrences shortly after diagnosis to years or even decades after the initial treatment. This subclinical period is known as tumor dormancy, in which residual disease remains in an undetectable state before finally appearing as an overtly proliferative metastasis. Desp...
متن کاملGiant Cell Tumor of Bone - an Overview
Giant Cell tumors (GCT) are benign tumors with potential for aggressive behavior and capacity to metastasize. Although rarely lethal, benign bone tumors may be associated with a substantial disturbance of the local bony architecture that can be particularly troublesome in peri-articular locations. Its histogenesis remains unclear. It is characterized by a proliferation of mononuclear stromal ...
متن کاملRole of Nanodiamonds in Drug Delivery and Stem Cell Therapy
Context: The use of nanotechnology in medicine and more specifically drug delivery is set to spread rapidly. Currently many substances are under investigation for drug delivery and more specifically for cancer therapy. Evidence Acquisition: Nanodiamonds (NDs) have contributed significantly in the development of highly efficient and successful drug delivery systems, and in stem cell therapy. Dru...
متن کاملCell polarity as a tumor suppressive mechanism.
Cell polarity is a fundamental property of epithelial cells that confers spatial organization to signalling pathways regulating many aspects of cell physiology including survival, proliferation, and motility. Loss of epithelial organization and apical-basal polarity correlates with the acquisition of a malignant phenotype, and accumulating evidence suggests that loss of polarity signalling cont...
