Die tierische Zelle in Zellkultur

Die ersten erfolgreichen Versuche zur Züchtung tierischer Zellen außerhalb des Organismus reichen zurück in den Beginn unseres Jahrhunderts. 1907 gelang HARRI­ SON durch Explantation von Gewebsstücken aus Froschembryonen der Nachweis, daß in der Embryonalentwicklung die Neuriten als Fortsätze der Nervenzelle ohne Be­ teiligung anderer Zellen gebildet werden, und daß damit eine spezifische celluläre Funktion auch außerhalb des Gesamtorganismus zu beobachten ist [310,311].

Port-Site and Wound Recurrences in Cancer Surgery: Incidence - Pathogenesis - Prevention

In the past nine years, studies of 'port-site' deposits following laparoscopic surgical procedure for malignancy, in particular laparoscopic resection of colonic melanoma, have solid a shadow at the knowledge of the laparoscopic method within the surgical guy­ agement in sufferers with melanoma. these studies of port-site deposits, a few ninety instances mentioned within the literature as much as 1999, have opened a 'can of worms' and highlighted the shortage of our wisdom on melanoma cellphone migration from strong tu­ mors and the criteria that underlie their profitable implantation in surgical wounds either within the presence and shortage of a good strain pneumoperito­ neum.

CANCER CLUSTERS A cluster refers to an unusual aggregation of health events that are grouped together in time and space. Although clusters may come to light through surveillance systems, more often they are reported to public health agencies by concerned citizens or groups. Responses to inquiries about perceived clusters may consume substantial resources on the part of public health agencies, yet rarely lead to the identification of etiological agents (75–78). Those clusters that have led to important etiological findings have often been clusters of new or rare diseases, and=or clusters of disease in very highly defined populations.
