the skin and biliary ducts was made.A plastic biliary sent was placed,which relieved the right upper abdominal pain and protected against unnecessary hepatectomy surgery.CONCLUSION Although rare,biliary metastasis should be considered in patients with bile duct stenosis and a history of breast cancer....
E-cadherin, allows breast cancer cells to survive as they travel through the body and form new tumors, a process termed metastasis. Their conclusions, obtained through laboratory experiments and in mouse models, help explain how metastasis works in the most common form of breast cancer, invasive...
How common is breast cancer metastasis? Why is breast cancer more common in females than males? How common is bilateral breast cancer? How common is thyroid cancer in men? How common is testicular cancer? What are the odds of a woman getting breast cancer?
A new study from the University of Notre Dame shows drugs used to treat high cholesterol could interfere with the way breast cancer cells adapt to the microenvironment in the brain, preventing the cancer from taking hold. Patients with breast cancer who experience this type of metastasis typically...
Using various model systems, studies have explored the effects of these individual proteases and inhibitors on cancer hallmarks such as cell proliferation, apoptosis, invasion and metastasis (reviewed in [7, 8]). A novel dimension to the metalloproteinase axis is its ability to regulate many ...
How common is bone cancer? How common is breast cancer metastasis? What is stomach cancer? How common is prostate cancer? How common is spinal cancer? How common is uterine cancer? What type of cancer is stomach cancer? How common is lung cancer?
Background: The purpose of this study was to determine whether routine biologic tumor markers can predict lymph node status. The authors attempted to discover whether predictors of axillary lymph node metastasis based on biologic characteristic of primary breast cancers exist. Methods: Eight hundred and...
Breast cancer (BC) is a common cancer in women worldwide. Despite advances in treatment, up to 30% of women eventually relapse and die of metastatic breast cancer. Liquid biopsy analysis of circulating cell-free DNA fragments in the patients’ blood can monitor clonality and evolving mutations ...
l-Tryptophan (Trp) metabolism through the kynurenine pathway (KP) is involved in the regulation of immunity, neuronal function and intestinal homeostasis. Imbalances in Trp metabolism in disorders ranging from cancer to neurodegenerative disease have stimulated interest in therapeutically targeting the KP,...
