Tumor-microenvironment-on-chip to mimic tumor heterogeneity
Ductal Carcinoma In Situ (DCIS) is a non-invasive cancer that forms around breast milk ducts that can potentially progress into invasive breast cancer if untreated. Lack of models to study its diverse pathophysiology and differential response to treatments poses a challenge to develop standard treatment modalities with improved therapeutic outcomes. The traditional in vitro models such as cell ...
متن کاملExploring the functional heterogeneity of the tumor microenvironment
Tumors are complex entities, composed of different functional populations of malignant and stromal cells. There is an emerging importance to understand previously unmapped communication routes between different cell and non-cell compartments of the tumor microenvironment. Targeted drugs have been used for years in an attempt to block essential pathways for tumor growth. Specifically, drugs targ...
متن کاملheterogeneity within the orientalist discourse: representation of the orient in womens travelogues and mens paintings
from 1950s onward, new theories and critical approaches burgeoned across humanities. these theories were context-oriented; as a result, the analysis of discursive practices gained significance. thus, social, political, historical and cultural discourses that have been hitherto marginalized and considered inferior to literary texts, were introduced as important texts to be analyzed by critics. o...
Cancer stem cells and the tumor microenvironment: interplay in tumor heterogeneity
Tumor cells able to recapitulate tumor heterogeneity have been tracked, isolated and characterized in different tumor types, and are commonly named Cancer Stem Cells or Cancer Initiating Cells (CSC/CIC). CSC/CIC are disseminated in the tumor mass and are resistant to anti-cancer therapies and adverse conditions. They are able to divide into another stem cell and a "proliferating" cancer cell. T...
متن کاملEffects of tumor microenvironment heterogeneity on nanoparticle disposition and efficacy in breast cancer tumor models.
PURPOSE Tumor cells are surrounded by a complex microenvironment. The purpose of our study was to evaluate the role of heterogeneity of the tumor microenvironment in the variability of nanoparticle (NP) delivery and efficacy. EXPERIMENTAL DESIGNS C3(1)-T-Antigen genetically engineered mouse model (C3-TAg) and T11/TP53(Null) orthotopic syngeneic murine transplant model (T11) representing human...
