Interstitial fluid pressure (IFP) is elevated in tumors due to abnormal vasculature, lack of lymphatic drainage, and alterations in the tumor interstitium. ZD6126 is a tubulin-binding agent that selectively disrupts tumor vasculature resulting in tumor necrosis. This study examined the effect of ZD6126 on tumor IFP and the response of tumors with different IFP levels to ZD6126. Pretreatment IFP...

The purpose of this study was to determine the independent prognostic significanceof interstitial fluid pressure (IFP) measurements in cervix cancer. A total of 102 patients with newly diagnosed cervix cancer were accrued to this prospective study. There were 31 International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics stage IB or IIA tumors, 40 IIB tumors, and 31 IIIB tumors. The median size was 5...

Background. Interstitial fluid pressure (IFP) has been recognised as the most important obstacle in macromolecular drug delivery to solid tumors. Our interest was to reduce differentialy tumor IFP with respect to IFP in surrounding and normal tissues in order to increase drug delivery to tumors as well to increase tumor blood flow and potentialy tumor tissue oxygenation. In this preliminary stu...

We study the expressive power of inflationary fixed-point logic IFP and inflationary fixed-point logic with counting IFP+C on planar graphs. We prove the following results: (1) IFP captures polynomial time on 3-connected planar graphs, and IFP+C captures polynomial time on arbitrary planar graphs. (2) Planar graphs can be characterized up to isomorphism in a logic with finitely many variables a...

The onset and progression of human inflammatory joint diseases are strongly associated with the activation resident synovium/infrapatellar fat pad (IFP) pro-inflammatory pain-transmitting signaling. We recently reported that intra-articularly injected IFP-derived mesenchymal stem/stromal cells (IFP-MSC) acquire a potent immunomodulatory phenotype actively degrade substance P (SP) via neutral en...

The interstitial fluid pressure (IFP) has been found to be as high as 20 to 50 mm Hg in both experimental and human solid tumors. While the IFP is an important determinant of the delivery of therapeutic agents to neoplastic cells in vivo, the mechanisms responsible for interstitial hypertension are not completely understood. The high vascular permeability of tumor blood vessels and the absence ...
