Can Prostate Specific Antigen Be Used as New Biomarker for Early Diagnosis of Breast Cancer?
Introduction: As a glycoprotein, Plasma Prostate-Specific Antigen (PSA) is mainly produced by prostate epithelial cells and is used as a major diagnostic tool for prostate cancer. A group of researchers relate the elevated number of estrogen receptors in breast cancer samples to the over-production of PSA in this type of cancer. Therefore, the present study aimed to determine the participants' ...
متن کاملCan hair be used to screen for breast cancer?
EDITOR—The use of hair as a biopsy tissue has been considered for some time. For instance, in the case of breast cancer, raised zinc levels in head hair have been reported. 1 Besides, x ray diVraction patterns of hair are rich and have attracted much attention for 70 years. 2 However, its potential use as a diagnostic indicator of disease was only suggested a short time ago. 3 Most recently, Ja...
متن کاملAccelerated preclinical testing using transplanted tumors from genetically engineered mouse breast cancer models.
PURPOSE The use of genetically engineered mouse (GEM) models for preclinical testing of anticancer therapies is hampered by variable tumor latency, incomplete penetrance, and complicated breeding schemes. Here, we describe and validate a transplantation strategy that circumvents some of these difficulties. EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN Tumor fragments from tumor-bearing MMTV-PyMT or cell suspensions fr...
متن کاملA recapitulative three-dimensional model of breast carcinoma requires perfusion for multi-week growth
Breast carcinomas are complex, three-dimensional tissues composed of cancer epithelial cells and stromal components, including fibroblasts and extracellular matrix. In vitro models that more faithfully recapitulate this dimensionality and stromal microenvironment should more accurately elucidate the processes driving carcinogenesis, tumor progression, and therapeutic response. Herein, novel in ...
متن کاملA New Changeable Bioreactor for Detection of Organophosphate in a Flow-Through System
A flow-through biosensor consisting of a fixed bed bioreactor was employed to detect the insecticideparaoxon. Based on the inhibition of organophosphorous insecticide to the enzymatic activity of acetylcholinesterase (AChE), using paraoxon as a model compound, the condition for detection of the insecticide were optimized. The influence of enzyme loading on the packing surface was studied ...
