BACKGROUND Prior studies showed a relationship between serum albumin and the albumin to globulin ratio with different types of cancer. We aimed to evaluate the predictive value of the albumin-globulin ratio (AGR) for survival of patients with lung adenocarcinoma. METHODS This retrospective study

OBJECTIVE Hepatoid adenocarcinoma, a putative chemosensitive tumour, is defined as a tumour with aberrant hepatocellular differentiation occurring in extrahepatic organs such as the stomach, usually in the gastrointestinal tract. Differentiation in the hepatocellular direction is usually supported

The mechanism for improved therapeutic efficacy of the combination therapy with nanoparticle albumin-bound paclitaxel (nAb-PTX) and gemcitabine (gem) for pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) has been ascribed to enhanced gem transport by nAb-PTX. Here, we used an orthotopic mouse model of

BACKGROUND Adjuvant chemotherapy (AC) is recommended as a standard treatment after curative resection in patients with pancreatic adenocarcinoma (PA). Although patients who failed to complete AC had significantly worse survival compared with those who completed AC for cancers in various organs, the

Primary urethral cancer is rare and accounts for only 0.003% of all malignancies arising from the female genitourinary tract. Due to the rarity of this disease, no consensus exists regarding the optimal therapeutic approach. Nanoparticle albumin-bound-paclitaxel has been shown to be effective in the

Ampullary carcinoma is a rare tumor and evidence on the treatment of recurrent metastatic disease is scarce. We report the case of a 60-year-old patient with an R0-resected node-positive adenocarcinoma of the papilla of Vater of an initially diagnosed intestinal subtype who developed pulmonary

Achieving maximal cytoreduction during surgery is a critical prognostic factor for women with advanced-stage ovarian cancer. Targeting optical imaging agents directly to ovarian cancer cells by attaching them to galactosyl (galactosamine-conjugated) serum albumin, whose sugar residues bind surface

Hypericin is a promising photosensitizer for photodynamic therapy (PDT) characterized by a high yield of singlet oxygen. Photobleaching of hypericin has been studied by means of absorption and fluorescence spectroscopy in different biological systems: in human serum albumin solution, in cultured

Erlotinib was loaded on albumin nanoparticles for the first time and the cytotoxic effect of the resulting nanoparticles against ASPC-1 and PANC-1 pancreatic adenocarcinoma cell lines was evaluated. The carrier (albumin nanoparticles, ANPs) was synthesized by desolvation method using a mixed solvent

To systematically evaluate the prognostic value of nutrition/inflammation-based markers for recurrence-free survival (RFS) in pN2-stage IIIA lung adenocarcinoma patients. Data from 156 patients who had pathologically confirmed pN2-stage IIIA primary lung adenocarcinoma and received complete surgical

Two cases of hepatoid adenocarcinomas were studied with an in situ hybridization technique (ISH) using a RNA probe for human albumin mRNA. In case 1 the urinary bladder of a 67-year-old woman was affected; in case 2 the tumour was located in the gastric antrum of an 80-year-old woman. In neither

OBJECTIVE To assess the production of a liver-specific protein, albumin, and of a master transcriptional factor, hepatocyte nuclear factor (HNF)-4alpha, in hepatoid adenocarcinoma tissue. METHODS Standard and quantitative RT-PCR, using five cases of hepatoid and three cases of non-hepatoid gastric

Purpose: We evaluated the clinical importance, such as the occurrence of postoperative pancreatic fistula (POPF) or prognosis, of preoperative serum markers of chronic inflammation, nutrition, and immunity, as well as that of serum tumor markers after curative resection of pancreatic ductal
