- Oncological considerations of skin-sparing mastectomy and immediate reconstruction 25.05.2006 241.00 Uhr
- Aim: To review evidence concerning the oncological safety of performing skin-sparing mastectomy (SSM) for invasive breast cancer and ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS). Furthermore, the evidence concerning RT in relation to SSM and the possibility of nipple preservation was considered. Methods: Literature review facilitated...more..
- Induction of antitumor immunity through xenoplacental immunization 25.05.2006 241.00 Uhr
- Historically cancer vaccines have yielded suboptimal clinical results. We have developed a novel strategy for eliciting antitumor immunity based upon homology between neoplastic tissue and the developing placenta. Placenta formation shares several key processes with neoplasia, namely: angiogenesis, activation of matrix...more..
- The mRNA expression of IGF-1 and IGF-1R in human breast cancer: Association with clinico-pathological parameters 25.05.2006 241.00 Uhr
- Background:
The insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-I) has been implicated in breast cancer development acting through insulin-like growth factor I receptor (IGF-IR). The objective of this study is to examine the correlation between levels of mRNA expression of IGF-1 and IGF-1R, and the clinicopathological parameters of...more..
- Angiogenesis in Interstitial Lung Diseases:
A pathogenetic hallmark or a bystander?
25.05.2006 240.00 Uhr
- The past ten years parallels have been drawn between the biology of cancer and pulmonary fibrosis. The unremitting recruitment and maintenance of the altered fibroblast phenotype with generation and proliferation of immortal myofibroblasts is reminiscent with the transformation of cancer cells. A hallmark of tumorigenesis...more..
- Polymorphisms in thymidylate synthase gene and susceptibility to breast cancer in a Chinese population: a case-control analysis 25.05.2006 240.00 Uhr
- Background:
Accumulative evidence suggests that low folate intake is associated with increased risk of breast cancer. Polymorphisms in genes involved in folate metabolism may influence DNA methylation, nucleotide synthesis, and thus individual susceptibility to cancer. Thymidylate synthase (TYMS) is a key enzyme that...more..
