The usefulness of human malignant tumor cells
نویسنده
چکیده
grown in tissue culture has been amply demon strated by the numerous reports in the literature on the HeLa strain of epithelial cell developed by Gey and co-workers (.5). This report will describe the culture characteristics of three more human tissue culture cell strains derived from epidermoid cancers, one embryonal nhabdomyosareoma , and one sarcoma which, as yet, has not been com pletely adapted to continuous transfer. All these strains are derived from neoplasms which were grown first in the irradiated and cortisone-treated rat by one of the authors (8, 9).

Osteosarcoma is a relatively uncommon malignancy however, it is the most common form of primary malignant bone tumors in human. Diagnosis and prognosis of patients with osteosarcoma is limited to clinico-radiopathological parameters, whereas molecular markers of tumor aggression have been poorly identified. Survivin, an inhibitor of apoptosis (IAP), is unique for its expression in human tumors ...
متن کاملCanine Mammary Gland Cancer Stem Cell and its Potential Role in Malignant Biologic Behavior
BACKGROUND:Canine mammary gland cancers are the most prevalent malignancies in dogs. There are different challenges regarding management of these cancers in dogs and human, one hypothesis is related to small cellular subset of tumor mass called cancer stem cell. These cells are therapy resistant and cause metastasis and relapse even after primary successful treatment. The well-identified phenot...
متن کاملAssessment of metrezoate-labeled gallium transmission in cultured human Burkitt lymphatic cells
Background: In addition to determining the exact tumor location and its geometric features, an increase of the effective tumor atomic number will enhances the chance in treating the tumoral cells under suitable radiation. In the present study, we assessed metrezoate-labeled gallium transmission in Burkett lymphatic cells. Materials and Methods: Human Burkitt lymphatic cells were grown ...

SUMMARY Askin tumor is a peripheral neuroepithelioma originating in chest wall. It is a very aggressive tumor and with Ewing's sarcoma are the most frequent tumors of chest wall. The tumor is composed of small round or ovoid cells arranged in sheets with pseudorossette formation. Some times around vessels, glycogen staining is some times positive in H & E but always positive in E.M. In E.M be...
متن کاملPatterns of Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor Expression in Hematopoietic Malignant Cells
Background and Objective: Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) is a cytokine which is overexpressed in many malignant cancers including leukemia. VEGF plays an important role in tumor invasion and metastasis. Determination of the pattern of VEGF expression in human leukemic cell lines could be useful not only in screening of new antileukemic agents but also to study the mechanism of their ...
