UNLABELLED Malignant triton tumor (MTT) is defined as malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumor with rhabdomyoblastic differentiation. Intracranial MTT is extremely rare, and only four cases have been reported in the literature. Here, we report a case of MTT occurring in the cerebellopontine angle, and describe its histopathological characteristics, immunohistochemical features, and prognosis. ...

Background Context: Walking limitations caused by neurogenic claudication (NC) are typically assessed with self-reported measures, though objective evaluation of walking utilizing motorized treadmill test (MTT) or self-paced walking tests (SPWT) have periodically appeared in the lumbar spinal stenosis (LSS) literature. Purpose: This study compared the validity and responsiveness of MTT and SPWT...

BACKGROUND Oospores are the most persistent propagules of Phytophthora capsici. The viability of oospores is determined by staining methods such as the tetrazolium bromide (MTT) test. OBJECTIVES The aim was to assess the MTT test and a plasmolysis method for their utility in determining viability of oospores of P. capsici. METHODS For either procedure the reactions of non-treated (viable) a...

BACKGROUND various MTT assay methods are proposed to obtain the cell survival parameters. OBJECTIVE determining the survival curve characteristics of two cancerous cells of interest based on a common and a novel MTT assay method after exposing them to ionizing radiation. METHODS a common and a novel MTT assay method were used and compared for obtaining the F10B16 melanoma and 4T1 breast ade...
