the chloroform soluble fractions of ethanolic extracts of five inula belonging to the compositae family were evaluated for cytotoxic activity against five different cell lines including caco2 (human colon adenocarcinoma), mcf7 (human breast adenocarcinoma), hepg2 (human hepatocellular carcinoma), vero (green african monkey kidney) and wehi164 (balb c mouse fibrosarcoma). cytotoxicity was assess...

Metastases to the breast from extramammary malignancies are rare. We report a case of metastasis to the breast from a colonic adenocarcinoma in a 50-year-old man who was 6 years status after a right hemicolectomy for T3N1M1 adenocarcinoma of the ascending colon. Sonographic evaluation of the right breast lump showed a hypoechoic mass with slightly irregular margins, but there was no internal va...

Duodenal adenocarcinoma, a very rare malignant gastrointestinal tumor, mainly metastasizes via the lymphatic system. Metastases from duodenal adenocarcinomas to the breast are very uncommon. A 31-year-old woman presented at our department with a left breast tumor. She had a past medical history of duodenal adenocarcinoma. Physical examination on admission confirmed a 2.5-cm-diameter tumor in th...

mucinous carcinoma of the breast is a well-differentiated type of adenocarcinoma accounting for 2-5% of all breast cancers. pure mucinous carcinoma of the breast has a favorable prognosis, usually seen in post-menopausal women. neuroendocrine differentiation has been described in both in-situ and infiltrating breast cancers .mucinous carcinomas of the breast appear to have the greatest associat...

Breast metastasis of ovarian carcinoma is rare. To date, only 39 cases have been reported in the English-language  literature  so  far.  We  are  herewith  reporting  a  primary  ovarian  papillary  serous  cyst adenocarcinoma metastasing to breast and epsilateral supraclavicular node in a 58 year old female as the first case in our centre, located at North-East India.  The purpose of reporting...

Breast like carcinomas of the vulva was thought to be originated from ectopic breast tissue or metastasis from breast. It is now accepted that, as mammary-like glands are present in the vulva, any pathology that is found in the breast can be seen at these glands. Adenocarcinoma of the vulva is rare and the breast-like adenocarcinomas are presented as case reports in the literature. We present a...

despite a lot of research, the etiology and progression of breast cancer remain incompletely understood. recently, human cytomegalovirus (hcmv) was reported as a risk factor for breast cancer. the aim of this study was to know whether breast cancer could be caused by cytomegalovirus or not? in this experiment seventeen samples of razi/a mice with spontaneous breast cancer were being gathered fr...

Tubular Carcinoma (TC) of the breast, also known as tubular carcinoma or well-differentiated adenocarcinoma, is defined a special type breast cancer consisting structures with excellent prognosis by WHO (2019) pathological and genetic classification neoplasms. Two cases admitted to our hospital were reported. The relevant literature was reviewed clinical features, histological morphology (micro...

background: norepinephrine plays a trophic role in the control of cell replication and differentiation in target cells that express adrenergic receptors. methods: in this study, we have tested the influence of infraphysiological, physiological and supraphysiological concentrations (0.0001 nm, 1 nm, 10000 nm) of human norepinephrine on the proliferation of breast cancer cells (human breast adeno...
