An orthotopic murine model of sinonasal malignancy.
PURPOSE Malignant sinonasal tumors are clinically challenging due to their proximity to vital structures and their diverse histogenesis and biological behavior. To date, no animal models accurately reflect the clinical behavior of these malignancies. We developed an orthotopic murine model of sinonasal malignancy that reproduces the intracranial extension, bony destruction, and spread along neu...
متن کاملAn orthotopic model of murine bladder cancer.
In this straightforward procedure, bladder tumors are established in female C57 mice through the use of catheterization, local cauterization, and subsequent cell adhesion. After their bladders are transurethrally catheterized and drained, animals are again catheterized to permit insertion of a platinum wire into bladders without damaging the urethra or bladder. The catheters are made of Teflon ...
متن کاملEffects of curcumin in an orthotopic murine bladder tumor model.
Cigarette smoking (CS) is the main risk factor for bladder cancer development. There are more than 100 carcinogens present in cigarette smoke. Among the potential mediators of CS-induced alterations is nuclear factor-kappa (NF-kappaB), which is responsible for the transcription of genes related to cell transformation, tumor promotion, angiogenesis, invasion and metastasis. Curcumin is a polyphe...
متن کاملAn Orthotopic Murine Model of Human Prostate Cancer Metastasis
Our laboratory has developed a novel orthotopic implantation model of human prostate cancer (PCa). As PCa death is not due to the primary tumor, but rather the formation of distinct metastasis, the ability to effectively model this progression pre-clinically is of high value. In this model, cells are directly implanted into the ventral lobe of the prostate in Balb/c athymic mice, and allowed to...
متن کاملEpidemiological Survey of Sinonasal Malignancy in North-East Iran
Introduction: Sinonasal malignancies are uncommon neoplasms with several histological subtypes. These malignancies have a poor prognosis and, because of the nonspecific nature of the symptoms, most patients are diagnosed late when the disease is already at an advanced stage. Therefore, most sinonasal malignancies tend to be treated with surgery and postoperative radiotherapy. Understanding the ...
