Miliary mottling on chest radiography is seen in miliary tuberculosis, certain fungal infections, sarcoidosis, coal miner’s pneumoconiosis, silicosis, hemosiderosis, fibrosing alveolitis, acute extrinsic allergic alveolitis, pulmonary eosinophilic syndrome, pulmonary alveolar proteinosis, and rarely in hematogenous metastases from the primary cancers of the thyroid, kidney, trophoblasts, and so...

Tumour cells may be resistant to radiotherapy that results in unsuccessful cancer treatment in patients. The aim of this study was to evaluate the sensitizing effect of atorvastatin (ATV) on breast cancer (MDA-MB-231) and non-small cell lung cancer (A-549) cells following exposure to ionizing radiation (IR). These cells were treated with ATV and exposed to X-ray at dose 4 Gy. The radiosensitizi...

background: lung cancer is the most common cause of cancer death worldwide with an annual mortality rate of more than 1.3 million worldwide. we aimed to analyze the clinicopathological features of patients with non-small-cell lung cancer (nsclc) in west of iran. methods: 64 patients with nsclc who referred to our clinic were analyzed. sex, age, histopathology, location of the tumor, treatment, ...

background: lung carcinoma is a multiple type cancer comprising of small cell and non-small cell carcinomas (nsclc). for therapeutic and diagnostic purposes, serum monoclonal antibodies have been produced against lung cancer. objective: to charac-terize a murine monoclonal antibody (me3d11) reactive with human nsclc. methods: a murine monoclonal antibody (me3d11) reactive with human nsclc was s...

background the attention of the scientific community has been recently focused on the role of tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes in non-small-cell cancer and there is a convergence of results, supporting a direct proportionality between lymphocytic infiltrate and good prognosis. objectives the aim of our research was to investigate the immune response around and inside the small-cell lung neoplasti...

Background: Lung cancer is a leading cause of cancer-related mortality worldwide. The purpose our meta-analysis was to assess the risk factors for brain metastases (BM) in patients with non-small cell lung (NSCLC).

Secondary Metabolites of Soil Actinomycetes, UTMC 676 and 919, Induces Apoptosis in Human Non‑Small-Cell Lung Cancer Cell Line

 Objective(s): Lymph node metastases are the most significant prognostic factor in localized non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Identification of the first nodal drainage site (sentinel node) may improve detection of metastatic nodes. Extended surgeries, such as lobectomy or pneumonectomy with lymph node dissection, are among the therapeutic options of higher acceptab...
