What is the difference between a malignant tumor and cancer? What is the rarest type of kidney cancer? Is primary liver cancer curable? What is organ tropism with cancer? Can liver cancer be diagnosed without a biopsy? Is liver cancer primary or secondary?
Malignant rhabdoid tumor of the kidney occurs most commonly in infants (mean age, 16.8 months), and preponderantly in males. This tumor is associated with an 80% mortality rate and can metastasize to liver, lung, brain, bone, and soft tissues.3 It is associated with central nervous system...

the abnormal expression of LMNB1, a classical biomarker of cell senescence, is highly correlated with the progression of various malignant tumors; LMNB1 is therefore considered a new potential tumor marker and therapeutic target. However, the mechanism of action of LMNB1 is influenced by many ...
247 Tumor-induced osteomalacia/rickets is an acquired disorder due to excessive synthesis of one of several phosphatonins by a tumor of mesodermal origin. The majority of such tumors have secreted FGF23, but these neoplasms have also synthesized produced frizzled related protein-4, matrix ...
