Although recent studies have suggested that tooth loss is positively related to the risk of gastric non-cardia cancer, the underlying oral health conditions potentially responsible for the association remain unknown. We investigated whether clinical and behavioral measures of oral health are associated with the risk of gastric precancerous lesions. We conducted a cross-sectional study of 131 pa...
A distinction can be made between a precancerous condition and a precancerous lesion. The former is a clinical state associated with a significantly increased risk of cancer, whereas a precancerous lesion is a histopathological abnormality in which cancer is more likely to occur than in its apparently normal counterpart. Up to the present time atrophic gastritis, gastric ulcer, pernicious anaem...
In 1955 I described a series of cases in which herpes zoster of the skin or breast was followed after a variable period by malignant change in the affected tissues (Wyburn-Mason, 1955). During the investigations at the Royal Marsden Hospital there were also observed a number of cases of malignant change in the skin of the lip which were preceded by herpes simplex. No mention of herpes simplex a...
Actinic keratoses (AK) are the most common premalignant pathology seen in dermatological practice and represent a burgeoning burden upon health services. Increasingly recognized is the damage to surrounding, perilesional skin, forming the premise for field-directed therapy. Ingenol mebutate gel is a novel agent for field-directed treatment of AK, requiring only 2 or 3 days of application. Follo...
The word chemoprevention includes prevention of initiation, promotion, and progression of carcinogenesis to cancer. This article is an attempt to review the dietary chemopreventive agents and their mode of action in chemoprevention of oral premalignant lesions and oral cancer using a systematic approach. Selected chemoprevention trials are discussed with a focus on strategies of trial design an...
A wealth of evidence has now demonstrated that the microenvironment in which a tumorigenic cell evolves is as critical to its evolution as the genetic mutations it accrues. However, there is still relatively little known about how signals from the microenvironment contribute to the early events in the progression to malignancy. To address this question, we used a premalignant mammary model to e...
Multiple enzymes participate in the phosphorylation of a group of phosphoinositide lipids. Because of their important role in signal transduction, the dysregulated metabolism of phosphoinositides represents a key step in many disease settings. Loss of their function has been demonstrated to occur as an early event a wide variety of carcinogenesis and has therefore been suggested as a biomarker ...
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the commonest malignancy of the liver and is usually due to cirrhosis. Early detection of HCC and the premalignant dysplastic nodules has implications on the management options of tumor ablation, liver resection and transplantation. Magnetic resonance imaging is useful for the detection and characterization of lesions, in the identification of dysplastic nodule...
Human papillomavirus (HPV) infection is an event responsible for the development of cervical cancer and its premalignant dysplasia. Prophylactic vaccines based on virus-like particles (VLPs) have been successfully tested in clinical trials. They are safe, close to 100% effective in preventing persistent infection and premalignant disease, and are now being introduced onto the market. Vaccinatio...
Mice transgenic for the Polyomavirus middle T (PyV-mT) gene have been widely used to study mammary tumorigenesis and metastasis. Although numerous molecular insights were gained from the analysis of these transgenic malignant tumors, the early events leading to malignant transformation have not been systematically investigated nor has the biological potential of hyperplastic lesions been docume...
