Angiogenesis in Retinoblastoma
نویسنده
چکیده
Dans certains cancers, un rapport direct a 6t6 6tabli entre la vascularisation de la tumeur et son comportement biologique; cette relation n'a pas 6t6 6tudi& dans le n5tinoblastome. Nous 6tudions le rapport quantitatif entre le comptage des vaisseaux et d'autres d6terminanis du pronostique sur38 yew 6nucl&s pour r6tinoblastome. On a W 6 une analyse B regression multiple pour examiner indbpendamment les effets de certains parametres histopathologiques et cliniques sur le comptage des vaisseaux. Ona aussi analyd le rapport avec certaines caract6ristiques cliniques telles que la lat6ralit6, l'emplacement et la taille, et des caract6ristiques histopathologiques telles que la diff#renciation, la nhose et la calcification.

Quantification of Mean Vessel Density in Retinoblastoma and Its Correlation with Local Tumor Invasion and Patients Survival
Background and Objectives: Retinoblastoma is the most common intraocular pediatric malignancy. Angiogenic factor expression such as VEGF (vascular endothelial growth factor) in retinoblastoma can be confirmatory angiogenic potential of this tumor. This study was performed to determine the role of angiogenesis in local invasion of retinoblastoma and its correlation with patients’ sur...
متن کاملAminoimidazole Carboxamide Ribonucleotide (AICAR) Inhibits the Growth of Retinoblastoma In Vivo by Decreasing Angiogenesis and Inducing Apoptosis
5-Aminoimidazole-4-carboxamide-1-β-4-ribofuranoside (AICAR), an analog of AMP is widely used as an activator of AMP-kinase (AMPK), a protein that regulates the responses of the cell to energy change. Recently, we showed that AICAR-induced AMPK activation inhibits the growth of retinoblastoma cells in vitro by decreasing cyclins and by inducing apoptosis and S-phase arrest. In this study, we inv...
متن کاملQuercetin inhibits angiogenesis-mediated human retinoblastoma growth by targeting vascular endothelial growth factor receptor
Retinoblastoma (RB) is the most common malignant intraocular cancer in teenagers, occurrence of which depends on the mutation of multiple genes. Among all the signaling pathways involved in the oncogenesis of RB, the process of angiogenesis has been demonstrated to be associated with the local invasive growth and metastasis of this cancer type. Quercetin (Que) is a typical flavonoid and has bee...
متن کاملVitamin D inhibits angiogenesis in transgenic murine retinoblastoma.
PURPOSE Vitamin D compounds have been shown to inhibit tumor growth in a transgenic retinoblastoma murine model. The mechanism of action has not been defined clearly, although an antiangiogenic action has been proposed. METHODS Transgenic retinoblastoma mice received high (0.05 microgram) and low (0.025 microgram) doses of vitamin D3 by intraperitoneal injection 5 times per week for 5 weeks. ...
متن کاملTumour angiogenesis as a prognostic factor for disease dissemination in retinoblastoma.
AIM To evaluate tumour angiogenesis as a predictor of prognosis in retinoblastoma. METHODS This was a retrospective, non-randomised comparative clinicopathological study. The histopathology from 24 cases of Reese-Ellsworth (RE) group V unilateral retinoblastoma treated by enucleation alone was reviewed. Group I consisted of five patients (four RE group Vb and one group Va) who developed disse...
متن کاملMolecular Investigation of the Human Adenovirus in Retinoblastoma Patients
Background and Aims: Retinoblastoma tumors are the most common intraocular malignancy in childhood, leading to death after two years. The Human Adenovirus (HAdV) infection could be critical in the retinoblastoma pathogenesis due to the virus and retinoblastoma 1 interactions. The objective of the current study was to investigate the possible presence of the HAdV genome in the retinoblastoma pat...
