Intra-arterial metabolic radiotherapy (using lipiodol labelled with iodine-131 or rhenium-188) is a therapeutic approach that can be used for the treatment of hepatocellular carcinomas (HCC). We propose a detailed description of the tumoral model using the N1-S1 cell line as well as a technique for intra-arterial injection of radiolabelled lipiodol in order to undertake preclinical studies nece...

Differences in the glycosaminoglycans and proteoglycans synthesized by "young," "adult," and tumoral chondrocytes are reported. Young cartilage and human chondrosarcoma contain chondroitin 4- and 6-sulfates, whereas adult human cartilage contains almost exclusively chondroitin 6-sulfate. High keratan sulfate content is reported in adult cartilage, whereas it is almost absent in young and tumora...

abstract background and aim: survivin is a new member of inhibitor of apoptosis protein family (iap) that plays an important role in the regulation of cell cycle and inhibition of apoptosis. distinct expression of this gene in tumoral cells versus normal cells introduces it as the fourth major transcriptome in cancers. thyroid carcinoma is the most common endocrine malignancy. considering the h...

Introduction In neurosurgery, the relationship among tumor mass and peri-tumoral structures including peri-tumoral edema are important for planning surgical trajectory and crucial for diagnosis, tumor excision, and post-surgical outcome [1]. Conventionally, T2WI and Gadolinium(Gd)-T1WI provide the information of, tumor mass, and peri-tumoral edema. The recent development of diffusion tensor MRI...
