Scaling rules for diffusive drug delivery in tumor and normal tissues.
Delivery of blood-borne molecules and nanoparticles from the vasculature to cells in the tissue differs dramatically between tumor and normal tissues due to differences in their vascular architectures. Here we show that two simple measures of vascular geometry--δ(max) and λ--readily obtained from vascular images, capture these differences and link vascular structure to delivery in both tissue t...
متن کاملCTGF and MLH1 Gene Expression Levels in Colorectal Cancer Tumor Tissues and Adjacent Normal Tissues in Patients in Golestan Province
Background and purpose: Colorectal cancer is the third most common type of cancer in terms of incidence and the second most common cause of cancer-related death worldwide. The aim of this study was to investigate the expression of CTGF and MLH1 gene in colorectal cancer tumor tissues and adjacent normal tissues in patients in Golestan province. Materials and methods: In this experimental study...
متن کاملExpression Changes of the FOXE1 and lncRNA PTCSC2 Expression in Tumor Tissues Compared with Normal Tissues in Patients with Colorectal Cancer
Introduction: In recent studies, methylation of FOXE1 in colorectal cancer has been reported as a diagnostic biomarker. In this study for the first time, the expression of FOXE1 and PTCSC2 in colorectal cancer was investigated and their expression patterns in two healthy and tumor tissues of patients were compared. Methods: In this study, 40 tumor tissues with colorectal cancer and 40 adjacent...
متن کاملExpression of XPG protein in human normal and tumor tissues.
XPG (Xeroderma pigmentosum group G complementing factor) is a protein associated with DNA repair and transcription. Point mutations in ERCC5, the gene coding for XPG, cause the cancer-prone disorder xeroderma pigmentosum (XP) while truncation mutations give rise to individuals with the combined clinical features of XP and Cockayne syndrome. Polymorphisms of ERCC5 or alterations in XPG mRNA expr...
متن کاملA new model for prediction of drug distribution in tumor and normal tissues: pharmacokinetics of temozolomide in glioma patients.
Difficulties in direct measurement of drug concentrations in human tissues have hampered the understanding of drug accumulation in tumors and normal tissues. We propose a new system analysis modeling approach to characterize drug distribution in tissues based on human positron emission tomography (PET) data. The PET system analysis method was applied to temozolomide, an important alkylating age...
