Human Cancer Modeling: Recapitulating Tumor Heterogeneity Towards Personalized Medicine
Despite diagnostic, preventive and therapeutic advances, growing incidence of cancer and high rate of mortality among patients affected by specific cancer types indicate current clinical measures are not ideally useful in eradicating cancer. Chemoresistance and subsequent disease relapse are believed to be mainly driven by the cell-molecular heterogeneity of human tumors that necessitates perso...

متن کاملPersonalized medicine: a personal view.
testing over the Internet, and collaborative groups of researchers are pursuing genetic variants that may, singly or in combination, define cohorts of women at higher-than-average risk of breast cancer and other diseases. Much is promised, but to date, little has been demonstrated. For evaluative purposes, it may be illustrative to consider the case of tamoxifen chemoprevention for carriers of ...
متن کاملMyocardial ischemia and viability
This paper addresses the question of whether and how MCG tests that assess ischemia or viability of the myocardium can add to the diagnostic information gained from standard procedures in asymptomatic and symptomatic patients. We review the diagnostic performance of the exercise electrocardiogram (ECG), the exercise and pharmacological (stress) echocardiogram, the exercise and pharmacological m...
متن کاملMyocardial Viability Imaging
The concept of hibernating myocardium originated from observations in the 1970s that the myocardial dysfunction seen in patients with chronic coronary artery disease (CAD) was not always permanent (1). The fact that revascularization with coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) could result in the recovery of contractile function in previously akinetic segments led to the development of numerous...
