We demonstrate for the first time that the expression of tyrosine containing membrane phosphoproteins is elevated in estrogen-induced kidney tumors, which is evident from both the types of experiments, i.e., alkali-resistant phosphorylation of membrane proteins and immunoprecipitation of tyrosine
Glycolipid sulfotransferase activity in a human renal cancer cell line, SMKT-R3, is enhanced by the action of growth factors such as EGF, TGF-alpha and HGF, whose receptors possess tyrosine kinase domains. We investigated whether tyrosine kinases are involved in the regulation of the
UNASSIGNED
To describe the complete responses in our patients with metastatic renal cancer treated with tyrosine kinase inhibitors.
METHODS
Between June 2007 and December 2014 we treated in our department 43 patients with metastatic renal cancer with antiangiogenic drugs.
RESULTS
9.3% (4/43) of the
OBJECTIVE
To analyse the learning curve for the management of tyrosine kinase inhibitors as the first line of treatment for patients with metastatic renal cancer.
METHODS
We evaluated 32 consecutive patients treated in our department for metastatic renal cancer with tyrosine kinase inhibitors
SHP2, a widely distributed protein-tyrosine phosphatase with src homology-2 (SH2) domains, is highly expressed in the brain and may play a role in synaptic communications or cellular proliferation. In this study, we examined SHP2 protein expression in 110 renal cell tumours of various histological
OBJECTIVE
Children who undergo standard therapy for renal tumors are at an increased risk for treatment sequelae such as congestive heart failure, abnormal trunk development, and secondary malignancies. Therefore, research on the use of novel chemotherapeutic agents with fewer side effects is
Background: Tyrosine-kinase inhibitor (TKI) drugs have been considered first line treatment for metastatic renal cell cancer (RCC) for over a decade. TKI-induced hypertension is a common adverse-event in patients treated for metastatic
Background: Renal cell carcinomas (RCCs) are the most common primary renal tumor. RCCs have a high rate of metastasis and have the highest mortality rate of all genitourinary cancers. They are often diagnosed late when metastases have developed, and these metastases are difficult to treat
OBJECTIVE
To determine whether primary care trusts' agreement or refusal to fund sorafenib or sunitinib affects outcomes for patients with metastatic renal cell carcinoma.
METHODS
This retrospective audit was conducted in a tertiary referral centre for urological cancer. Requests to prescribe drugs
Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) is a heterogeneous disease as reflected in its presentation and clinical course, pathological subtypes, nuclear grades and molecular biology. Emerging data indicate that renal tumors express a variety of molecular tumor markers and unique patterns of gene expression.
BACKGROUND
Since both cytotoxic and cytokine therapy were not able to improve the prognosis of advanced renal cell carcinoma (RCC), this tumor has been a good model for the development of new biological agents in the past decade. Five VEGF receptor (VEGFR) and two mammalian target of rapamycin
Hypertension (HT) is the common adverse event associated with vascular endothelial growth factor receptor-tyrosine kinase inhibitors (VEGFR-TKI). The present study was performed to identify the predictive factors of TKI-induced HT and to determine the classes of antihypertensive agents (AHTA) that
In the last 3 years there has been a dramatic increase in the treatment options for patients with metastatic renal cancer. In addition to the cytokines interferon and interleukin 2, recently approved agents include sorafenib, sunitinib, temsirolimus and bevacizumab. A plethora of agents that are
Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) is the most common solid neoplasm of adult kidney, and the major treatment for metastatic RCC (mRCC) is molecular targeted therapy. Sorafenib, as a multi-targeted tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI), has significantly improved clinical outcomes of mRCC patients. However,
Expression of the receptor tyrosine kinase-like orphan receptor 2 (Ror2) has been identified in an increasing array of tumor types and is known to play a role as an important mediator of Wnt signaling cascades. In this study, we aimed to clarify Ror2 interactions with the Wnt pathways within the
