turpentine/sarcoma

Erythrocytes from the circulation of rats bearing Yoshida ascites sarcoma exhibit higher concanavalin A (ConA)-mediated agglutinability than those from normal animals. A tetrameric glycoprotein of subunit molecular mass 170 kDa, purified from the cell-free ascites fluid, was found to confer higher

2-Deoxy-2-[(18)F]fluoro-d-glucose ([(18)F]FDG), [(18)F]fluoroacetate ([(18)F]FAc) and [(18)F]fluoromisonidazole ([(18)F]FMISO) were all considered to be positron emission tomography (PET) probes for tumor diagnosis, though based on different rationale of tissue uptake. This study compared the

Decalin is used as an industrial solvent for naphthalene, fats, resins, oils, and waxes. It is also used as a substitute for turpentine in lacquers, paints, and varnishes; as a solvent and stabilizer for shoe polishes and floor waxes; and as a constituent of motor fuels and lubricants. Other

In veterinary medicine, hyperferritinemia is often observed in dogs with various diseases (e.g., histiocytic sarcoma and immune-mediated hemolytic anemia) without evidence of iron overload. The mechanism underlying hyperferritinemia development is not well understood. Anemia caused by inflammation

To measure interleukin (IL)-1, IL-6, and tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-like activities in canine serum, bioassays were conducted using human melanoma A375S1, IL-6 dependent murine hybridoma MH60.BSF2, and WEHI 164 murine sarcoma subclone 28-4. Clinically normal adult beagles were experimentally

Elevated protein synthesis in mouse tumor-host liver is the net result of both stimulatory and inhibitory responses. This study compares the directional change in transcription and synthesis of liver and plasma proteins in tumor-host liver as compared with para-neoplastic conditions, such as

3-(123)I-Iodo-alpha-methyltyrosine ((123)I-3-IMT) is used for the detection of residual and recurrent brain tumors. The application of (123)I-3-IMT for the study of extracerebral malignancies is limited by its marked and rapid renal uptake. In this study, we compared the tumor uptake,

It was shown earlier that non-specific human gamma globulin (IgG) labeled with 111In can be used as an agent for abscess localization. We describe experimental results with 99mTc-IgG in animals bearing abscesses and tumors using a one-step labeling method with 99mTc. We studied this compound in
