A Mathematical Model of Immune Response to Tumor Invasion
Recent experimental studies by Diefenbach et al. [1] have brought to light new information about how the immune system of the mouse responds to the presence of a tumor. In the Diefenbach studies, tumor cells are modified to express higher levels of immune stimulating NKG2D ligands. Experimental results show that sufficiently high levels of ligand expression create a significant barrier to tumor...
متن کاملGiant cell tumor of the sphenoid bone
Background: Giant cell tumor is a benign but locally aggressive bone neoplasm which uncommonly involves the skull. Giant cell tumor (GCT) of the sphenoid bone is relatively rare. In this report, we describe a tumor of the greater wing of left sphenoid bone. Case presentation: A 31-year-old female was presented with headache, proptosis and diplopia of her left eye. Cranial magnetic resonance ima...
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 کاملAggressive Recurrent Odontogenic Ghost Tumor with Cranial Invasion.
Calcifying odontogenic cyst (COC) is a unique odontogenic lesion with combined features of a cyst and neoplasm. This lesion shows a great diversity in its clinicopathological behavior. It may become aggressive and rarely malignant. This case is an aggressive COC of the maxilla in a young male patient which recurred after several radical surgical excisions. Eventually invading the cranium, t...
متن کاملTumor metastasis to bone
Establishment of skeletal metastasis involves bidirectional interactions between the tumor cell and the cellular elements in the bone microenvironment. A better understanding of the pathophysiology of bone metastasis will be critical in developing the means to prevent bone metastasis or inhibit its progression. The receptor activator of nuclear factor-kappaB (RANK)/RANK ligand pathway has emerg...
