67gallium-bleomycin complex (67ga-blm) was prepared using thakour method. radio-thin-layer-chromatography of prepared complex showed a2 and b2 radiopeaks with rf at 0.7 and 0.4 respectively with a purity of above % 95. tissue uptake of 67ga-blm and 67gacl3 in twelve tissues including tumor, blood, liver, lung, spleen, muscle, skin, heart, kidney, colon, colon content ,bladder and the total body...

there are emerging data on novel tumor markers such as matrix metalloproteinase-2 (mmp-2 or gelatinase-a), which play a key role in tissue invasion and metastasis. we designed an investigation to assess the usefulness of mmp-2 activity as compared to prostate specific antigen (psa) in cancer staging process. we have analyzed the circulating form of mmp-2 in serum samples of patients suffering f...

Abstract Background Treatment options for recurrent glioblastoma are limited and with the possible exception of regorafenib, no agent has demonstrated superior activity to lomustine. Therefore, there is an urgent need more effective treatment strategies glioblastoma. Here, we investigated different combinations based on tumor-stroma targeting antibody-cytokine fusion protein L19TNF in preclinic...

iron overload is known to occur in the west european and american population due to the consumption of iron-rich diets. on the other hand, genetic disorders leading to iron overload are also known. iron overload leads to increased peroxidation and disruptive disintegration of lipid-rich membranes, and predisposes humans for an enhanced risk of cancer induction. in experimental animals iron over...

Recent studies suggest that Denosumab reduces tumor size, therefore, makes the surgery easier with lowermorbidity. However, some studies have reported several complications for this drug. So, this systematic reviewwas performed to determine the effectiveness and safety of Denosumab in reducing bone destructions activity ofgiant cell tumor and skeletal-related events (SRE) in affected patients w...

We aimed to develop a cost-effective and robust method to predict drug resistance in individualpatients. Representative tissue fragments were obtained from tumors removed from femalepatients, aged 24-74 years old. The tumor tissue was taken by a histopathology’s or a surgeonunder sterile conditions. Cells obtained by enzymatic dissociation from tumor after surgery, werecultured as a monolayer f...

Background: Genistein (GEN), a naturally occurring flavonoid present in soy bean, has attracted scientific interest for its possible benefits in cancer. Objective: The potential immunomodulatory effects of genistein on the immune system and against TC-1 tumor cell line were evaluated in adult female C57BL/6 mice. Methods: Mice were treated with GEN 10 days before to 10 days after the tumor indu...

background: neuroblastoma is the most common tumor in infancy and wilms’ tumor is the most common malignant tumor of kidney in childhood. both the tumors are usually within the differential diagnosis of each other. this study compares the clinical manifestations, sex and age distribution of childhood wilms’ tumor and neuroblastoma at one of tehran children hospitals. materials and methods: the ...
