Modeling of interstitial fluid pressure in solid tumor
Interstitial ̄uid pressure (IFP) is one of the main obstacles for macromolecular agents uptake and distribution in solid tumors. It has been demonstrated to reduce eectiveness of different macromolecular agents used in in vivo anti-tumor therapies, which on the other hand showed very good anti-tumor properties in in vitro conditions [L.T. Baxter, R.K. Jain, Microvascular Research 37 (1989) 77±...
متن کاملMathematical Model of the Effect of Interstitial Fluid Pressure on Angiogenic Behavior in Solid Tumors
We present a mathematical model for the concentrations of proangiogenic and antiangiogenic growth factors, and their resulting balance/imbalance, in host and tumor tissue. In addition to production, diffusion, and degradation of these angiogenic growth factors (AGFs), we include interstitial convection to study the locally destabilizing effects of interstitial fluid pressure (IFP) on the activi...
متن کاملTumor interstitial fluid pressure may regulate angiogenic factors in osteosarcoma.
We have previously shown that osteosarcomas (OS) have states of increased interstitial fluid pressure (IFP), which correlate with increased proliferation and chemosensitivity. In this study, we hypothesized that constitutively raised IFP in OS regulates angiogenesis. Sixteen patients with the clinical diagnosis of OS underwent blood flow and IFP readings by the wick-in-needle method at the time...
متن کاملEstimation of Tumor Interstitial Fluid Pressure (TIFP) Noninvasively
Tumor interstitial fluid pressure (TIFP), is a physiological parameter with demonstrated predictive value for a tumor's aggressiveness, drug delivery, as well as response to treatments such as radiotherapy and chemotherapy. Despite its utility, measurement of TIFP has been limited by the need for invasive procedures. In this work, the theoretical basis for approaching the absolute value of TIFP...
متن کاملInterstitial fluid pressure.
Fluid movement through the capillary membrane has been measured in the lower legs of dogs by using implanted, perforated capsules as internal plethysmographs. Utilizing this procedure it was possible to compare the effects of changes in interstitial fluid pressure with the effects of changes in venous pressure and arterial pressure on movement of fluid through the capillary membrane. A decrease...
