Five patients with unresectable pancreatic adenocarcinoma were treated with simultaneous intraoperative radiotherapy and intraoperative hyperthermia. Postoperative survivorship averaged 15.8 months, which compares favorably to a previous study in which 19 patients receiving intraoperative
We studied the effect of in vitro hyperthermia on induction of blebbing in cultured Ehrlich ascitic adenocarcinoma cells. Hyperthermia (42-48 degrees C) promotes induction of blebbing in cell culture, but this induction is reversible, and cessation of hyperthermia leads to almost complete recovery
We investigated the mechanisms of thermosensitization related to combination therapy with sesquiterpene lactone parthenolide (PTL), a nuclear factor-kappaB (NF-kappaB) inhibitor, and hyperthermia using human lung adenocarcinoma cells A549. The kinetics of apoptosis induction and cell cycle of cells
Colon adenocarcinoma is one of the most common cancers worldwide, and resistance to current therapeutic modalities is a serious drawback in its treatment. Auraptene is a natural coumarin with considerable anticancer effects. The goal of this study was to introduce a novel combinatorial approach for
We have shown that, with in vitro passage, subclones derived from clonal cell populations of 13762NF mammary adenocarcinoma undergo phenotypic drift and diversification in their cellular properties. Here we examine whether phenotypic divergence of 13762NF cell clones extends to therapeutic
OBJECTIVE
To evaluate the safety of delivering pre-operative regional hyperthermia (HT) plus an intensified chemo-radiotherapy (CRT) regimen in patients suffering from locally advanced rectal cancer.
METHODS
Between June 2000 and April 2006, 76 patients with locally advanced (cT3-4 N0/+) rectal
Hyperthermia treatments (43 degrees C, 1 h) were performed on exponentially growing MCF-7 breast adenocarcinoma cells at the beginning, middle, or end of 24 h incubations of the cells in vitro with Taxol (paclitaxel). When the cells were heated at the beginning or middle of the Taxol incubation, the
OBJECTIVE
The aim of our study was to evaluate the feasibility and the efficacy of cytoreductive surgery (CS) with intraoperative chemo-hyperthermia in the management of advanced stage IVA (T4N0M0) pancreatic cancer.
METHODS
From August 1995 through March 1996, seven patients with unresectable
Increased lipid peroxide levels were obtained 1 h after a 60-min 43 degrees C hyperthermia treatment of a solid murine C3H mammary adenocarcinoma, grown subcutaneously in the hind paws of mice. Previous work from our group revealed that this heat treatment depletes the intracellular glutathione
Synergistic killing effect of hyperthermia and radiation on human cecum adenocarcinoma cell line (HCe-8693) was studied as to cell growth curve, mitotic index, concentrations of potassium and beta 2-microglobulin, CEA content and cell morphology under light and electron microscopes. The cultured
Intracellular accumulation of free or thermosensitive liposome-encapsulated daunorubicin (TLED) at 37 or 43 degrees C, was evaluated using flow cytometry in chemosensitive and P-glycoprotein expressing MCF-7 human breast adenocarcinoma cells. At 37 degrees C, liposome-encapsulation significantly
Transplantable adenocarcinomas of the C3H mouse were treated with fractionated radiotherapy combined with local hyperthermia of 43.5 degrees C for 20 min before each dose fraction and local cure rate was determined. The sensitizing effect of hyperthermia was seen with fractionated treatment as well
The effects of hyperthermia, adriamycin (ADM), and hyperthermia combined with ADM on pancreatic cancer cells were investigated from the viewpoint of cytokinetics using flow cytometric bromodeoxyuridine (BrdUrd)/DNA analysis. Human pancreatic adenocarcinoma cell line Capan-2 was used. The untreated
(31)P NMR spectroscopy with surface coils has been used to monitor, in vivo, the phosphate metabolism of subcutaneously implanted mammary 16/C adenocarcinoma in C3H/He mice. This model tumor was studied during untreated tumor growth and after treatment with adriamycin, hyperthermia, and x-radiation.
Local and regional hyperthermia for treatment of cancer is often combined with radio- and chemotherapy. In this study we tested whether topically applied serotonin (5-HT) modulates tumor blood flow during local hyperthermia. The surgically unprepared ear microcirculation of anesthetized (75 mg/kg
