we aimed to develop a cost-effective and robust method to predict drug resistance in individualpatients. representative tissue fragments were obtained from tumors removed from femalepatients, aged 24-74 years old. the tumor tissue was taken by a histopathology’s or a surgeonunder sterile conditions. cells obtained by enzymatic dissociation from tumor after surgery, werecultured as a monolayer f...

introduction: inflammatory myofibroblastic pseudotumors are initially described in the lung and various extrapulmonary sites such as the orbits, palatine tonsils, ears, gingiva, pterygomaxillary space, and periodontal tissues. these tumors rarely involve the larynx and predilection to the glottis occurs in an indolent manner.   case report this case describes a laryngeal myofibroblastic tumor i...

EBV-carrying human cell lines, depending on whether the cells are derived from Burkitt's lymphoma (BL) tumor biopsies or transformed by EBV in vitro, have different growth properties in vitro. In contrast, there are no clear differences between tamarin tumor lines and tamarin LCLs in vitro. Both types of tamarin cell lines could grow in agarose and formed colonies unlike human LCLs, althoug...

Background: Schwannoma is a peripheral nerve sheath tumor originating from schwann cells. It is the most common neurogenic tumor of the posterior mediastinum. Pleural effusion is a rare presentation of benign schwannoma and it is mainly related to malignant tumors. Histologically, schwannoma as well as solitary fibrous tumor should be considered as a differential diagnosis of spindle cell lesio...

Ovarian small cell carcinoma is a rare and highly malignant tumor with poor prognosis. It usually presents in younger females with features of hypercalcemia. The exact histogenesis of the tumor is unclear and it may present as an undifferentiated tumor. In such cases, immunohistochemistry (IHC) plays an important role to confirm the diagnosis. Limited treatment options are available and mainly ...

Background: Study in design to incorporate accelerated proliferation correction factors into linearquadratic and multiple-component models. Materials and Methods: Accelerated proliferation rate correction factor has been incorporated into the linearquadratic and the multiple component models by applying accelerated exponential cell growth to explain the tumor cell kinetics and estimates proper ...

background: combination therapy has generated remarkable motivation in the clinical setting since it boosts the therapeutic potential of anticancer drugs. glioblastoma multiforme (gbm) is the most common and aggressive malignant brain tumor which affects patients in all ages, and being principally resistant to treatment. methods: in this study, temozolomide as a standard chemotherapeutic drug f...

a case is reported with clear cell sarcoma (ccs) of the hand. early diagnosis of clear cell sarcoma is always difficult due to its slow growing nature, benign clinical appearance, lack of pigmentation in most cases, and relatively young age of patients which make it to clinically appear as a benign soft tissue tumor. we report a case of clear cell sarcoma of hand in a 56 year old male with a no...

objective: the number of new cancer cases with considerable mortality is increasing worldwide. since the inability of current therapies in treatment of patients and prevention the progress of tumors with fewer side effects, implementation of new methods is needed. gene therapy has widespread systemic cytotoxic effects against tumor cells. rotavirus nsp4 has been shown to elicit extensive cytoto...
