neoplasm metastasis/アルブミン

Patient survival depends on the completeness of resection of peritoneal ovarian cancer metastases (POCM), and therefore, it is important to develop methods to enhance detection. Previous probe designs based on activatable galactosyl human serum albumin (hGSA)-fluorophore pairs, which target lectin

A large variety of cancers are associated with a high incidence of lymph node metastasis, which leads to a high risk of cancer death. Herein, we demonstrate that multimodal imaging guided photothermal therapy can inhibit tumor metastasis after surgery by burning the sentinel lymph nodes (SLNs) with

Growth of the murine hepatoma H6 was significantly suppressed by amiloride, a sodium influx inhibitor. Primary tumor growth inhibition was augmented by loading the drug into cross-linked albumin carriers, but lung metastases were enhanced. These results emphasize the importance of using metastatic

BACKGROUND To date, only few studies focusing on the issue of host general and immune activity have been performed in localized prostate cancer (PCa). The aim of this study was to elucidate potent non tumor-related biomarkers that express aggressiveness of PCa treated by radical prostatectomy

OBJECTIVE To evaluate the potential risk factors for distant metastasis of nasopharyngeal carcinoma in Chinese patients following standard intensity-modulated radiotherapy and chemotherapy. METHODS The potential risk factors for distant metastasis in 622 patients with newly-diagnosed primary

We report a case in which combination therapy with albumin-bound paclitaxel (nab-paclitaxel) and gemcitabine converted unresectable pancreatic cancer with peritoneal metastases into resectable disease. The patient was a 71-year-old woman with anorexia. Enhanced abdominal computed tomography (CT)

Invasion-inhibiting factor 2 (IIF-2) and its albumin conjugate have been reported to inhibit spontaneous metastasis of highly metastatic cancer cells with no effect on primary tumor growth. To confirm the inhibitory effects of the IIF-2 conjugate on tumor invasion and spontaneous metastasis, we

Thallium-201 chloride (201TlCl) single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) was used to determine tumor viability, and the early and delayed images of technetium-99m-diethylenetriaminepenta-acetic acid-human serum albumin (99mTc-HSA-D) SPECT were used to assess tumor vascularity and

BACKGROUND In recent years, the establishment of new staging systems for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) has been reported worldwide. The system combining albumin-bilirubin (ALBI) with tumor-node-metastasis stage, developed by the Liver Cancer Study Group of Japan, was called the ALBI-T

Objective: To investigate the relationship between systemic inflammatory markers such as neutrophil/lymphocyte ratio (NLR) and C-reactive protein/albumin ratio (CAR), and lymph node metastasis in patients with cN0 gastric cancer. To establish a nomogram model to predict the risk of lymph node

Purpose: Accumulating evidence suggests that the inflammatory tumor microenvironment can potentiate tumor progression and metastasis. The C-reactive protein-to-albumin ratio (CAR) is a novel inflammation-based prognostic score. This study

BACKGROUND The aim of this study is to investigate the association C-reactive protein to albumin (CRP/Alb) ratio, a novel inflammation based prognostic score, and long-term outcomes among patients with colorectal liver metastases (CRLM) after hepatic resection. METHODS We retrospectively

The poor results of systemic chemotherapy for colorectal liver metastases have focussed attention on the use of regional chemotherapy. Embolizing, biodegradable particles can be coadministered with anticancer drugs to slow temporarily the arterial blood flow and increase drug uptake within the

An 82-year-old man with far-advanced gastric cancer underwent palliative distal gastrectomy. After operation, he was treated with S-1 therapy and maintained stable disease during 3 courses of chemotherapy. However, he stopped taking the drug according to self-judgment. After that, he was admitted to
