Cancer of the tongue is typically localized on the lateral tongue, on the underside of the tongue, on the anterior﹍ateral floor of the mouth, or in the retromolar trigone. Total glossectomy surgery (ablation of the complete tongue) is rarely performed today, and the term "glossectomy" ...
And in the lower chamber of each insert, 50% of TCM was mixed with 50% of endothelial cell growth medium and used as a 'chemoattractant'. After incubation at 37 1C for 24 h, HMVECs that penetrated the Matrigel-coated membrane and adhered to underside of the inserts were dissoci- ated...
Lung cancer is the most malignant tumor worldwide and the leading cause of cancer-related deaths with the highest mortality [1,2]. According to statistics, there are around over 1.8 million new cases and more than 1.6 million deaths resulted from lung cancer per year [2]. The insidious symp...
Because it’s a push-back sort of piece that perhaps some will not appreciate. It’s meant to be tongue-in-cheek. Sort of. Not everyone will appreciate my dry humor. Or sarcasm. It’s okay if you don’t. Don’t take this post too seriously, okay? Then again… So, you’ve been...
The number of cells on the underside of the membrane was counted in five different fields with a light microscope at 100×, and the mean and SD was calculated from three independent experiments. DNA microarray After washing the cells with 50 mM potassium phosphate buffer (pH 7.4), the total...
Cells were applied to the upper chamber containing RPMI without serum and the cells that migrated to the underside of the filter in 6 h were stained. The eluted dye was measured at 560 nm in an ELISA reader (Bio-Rad, Richmond, CA). Western blot analysis To evaluate the protein ...
The cells on the underside of the filters were fixed with 4% formaldehyde for 10 min and stained with crystal violet for 10 min. The stained cells were counted in five randomly chosen fields. And the results are presented as the number of invasive cells in per field. Hypoxia assays ...
On the other hand, a rigid confocal endoscope that was developed to assess the oral squamous epithelium of mice could image the underside of the tongue at a penetration depth between 104 and 240 µm. For differentiation between low-grade and high-grade squamous intra-epithelial lesions, a ...
