immunohistochemical demonstration of tumor-associated markers may be valuable as an adjunct to conventional histology for determination of malignancy development in oral mucosal diseases. accordingly, the present study determined the distribution of some important tumor markers such as heat shock proteins (hsp), fibroblast growth factors (fgf) and transferrin receptors (tf-r) in 22 samples of p...

tumor growth has a number of features in common with a physical process known as molecular beam epitaxy (mbe). so using the same equations for tumor growth is sensible. however, tumor substrate unlike mbe is not planar that makes necessary a geometrical treatment of the growth equations. a variety of mathematical models have been proposed to describe tumor growth. the justification for these mo...

Introduction: Acoustic transient cavitation is the primary mechanism of sonochemical reaction and has potential use for tumor treatment. In this study, the in vivo anti-tumor effect of simultaneous dual-frequency ultrasound at low-level intensity (ISATA < 6 W/cm2) was investigated in a spontaneous murine model of breast adenocarcinoma in Balb/c mice. Materials and Methods: Forty tumor bearing m...

Due to the properties of tumor cell, the tumor establishes itself in the organ and grows there, so there is a competition between the tumor cells and host cell (normal cells) for nutrients. Evidences show that high dietary phosphorus increases the rate of protein synthesis and thus the cell number. So, other than oxygen, sulfur, the important element that both tumor cells and normal cells need ...

introduction as a tumor grows, the demand for oxygen and nutrients increases and it grows further if acquires the ability to induce angiogenesis. in this study, we aimed to present a two-dimensional continuous mathematical model for avascular tumor growth, coupled with a discrete model of angiogenesis. materials and methods in the avascular growth model, tumor is considered as a single mass, wh...

the aim of this study was assessing the adjuvant therapy of exercise on cytokines balance in mice with breast cancer tumor. twenty female balb/c mice were randomly assigned to experimental and control groups. after orientation in the environment, estrogen-receptor dependent breast cancer cells (mc4-l2) were injected to them and experimental group performed endurance training 5 day in week for 6...

background: chemo-immunotherapy is one of the new achievements for treatment of cancer, by which the success of anti-cancer therapy can be increased. in vitro studies have been shown that arteether (are) induces apoptosis in tumor cells, but not in normal cells. objective: to investigate the cytotoxic and immunomodulatory properties of arteether in-vivo and in-vitro. methods: in this study, we ...
