B700 is a murine melanoma antigen that is closely related to, but distinct from, serum albumin. The present study examined the metabolic fate and anatomic distribution of radioiodinated B700 and mouse serum albumin (MSA) administered s.c. to mice. In blood, both proteins were associated with the
Hybridization of cells of defined and different histotypes has been carried out to investigate whether the expression (or reexpression) of parental functions is mutually exclusive, as is expected if the generally assumed rule of discreteness of differentiation applies to hybrid cells. A cross of
We present the planar lymphoscintigraphies and SPECT/CT images of a 60-year-old man diagnosed as having melanoma (Breslow 1.8 mm) in left parietal scalp, close to head midline. Sentinel lymph node biopsy using Tc-tilmanocept was performed, but the surgery was canceled. Two weeks later, sentinel
Curcumin is a natural compound presenting important antitumour activity. However, due to its low aqueous solubility, instability at physiological pH, and low oral bioavailability, its clinical use is limited. Bovine serum albumin (BSA) nanoparticles have been used as drug carriers to improve the
The influence of methotrexate bound to human serum albumin (HSA-MTX) and of free methotrexate (MTX) on B16 melanoma growth, dissemination and survival time of tumor-bearing animals was investigated. It was found that the growth of tumor was slower after therapy with the HSA-MTX derivative than after
OBJECTIVE
The combination of oblimersen, a bcl-2 antisense oligonucleotide, and dacarbazine lead to superior progression-free survival in advanced melanoma patients. Albumin-bound paclitaxel (nab-paclitaxel) has single-agent activity in melanoma.
METHODS
In a phase I trial, chemotherapy-naïve
Selective lymphadenectomy, based on prior lymphatic mapping and sentinel node identification and excision, is now the standard management for intermediate-thickness melanomas in many cancer centers worldwide. At our center 99m-labeled technetium human serum albumin (HSA) scans are performed before
Fluorescent coupling of bovine serum albumin (BSA) and extracellular antigen of melanoma (ECA) using modified carbodiimide method was evaluated enabling BSA to serve as model protein to evaluate the release profiles of different microsphere formulations and uptake in B16 melanoma cells. Properties
The addition of 1 percent (w/v) bovine serum albumin (BSA) to the F12 medium utilized for the growth of the B16 melanoma cells significantly stimulated the growth of this cell line. The synthesis of mucopolysaccharides and sialoglycopeptides in this medium is identical with that in Eagle's minimal
B700, a murine melanoma-specific antigen, is a member of the serum albumin protein family. Other members include serum albumin and vitamin D binding protein. The primary structure and biochemical functions of B700, as well as its in vivo metabolic fate, are largely unknown. We compared murine
1. B700, a murine melanoma antigen, is a member of the serum albumin protein family, being closely related to murine serum albumin (MSA). 2. We have studied and compared the metabolic fate and anatomic distribution of radioiodinated B700 and MSA administered to semisyngeneic naive and tumor-bearing
BACKGROUND
The kinetics of melphalan leakage from extracorporeal fluid to the peripheral blood was studied in ten patients undergoing hyperthermic isolation perfusion of the lower limbs as an adjuvant treatment in high-risk melanoma.
METHODS
Systemic leakage was monitored by a new technique using
Sentinel lymph node (SLN) biopsy has emerged as a novel approach for identifying patients with melanoma and regional nodal micrometastasis who may benefit from full nodal basin resection. To identify the pattern of tumor lymphatic drainage and the SLN, lymphoscintigraphy has been performed using
OBJECTIVE
Assess the relationship of serum calcium and serum albumin to tumor stage and other clinical characteristics in patients with cutaneous malignant melanoma (MM).
METHODS
A cross-sectional study to evaluate serum calcium as a marker of disease progression (n = 644) in MM.
RESULTS
Serum
As multidrug resistance continues to be a problem in cancer treatment, controlled release delivery systems, such as microspheres, may aid to give a slower release of anticancer drugs into drug resistant tumor cells. In this study doxorubicin microspheres microencapsulated in an albumin matrix were
