Cancer Cell Culture: Methods and Protocols

With many contemporary advances, melanoma mobilephone tradition study is extra vital than ever ahead of. This well timed version of melanoma phone tradition: equipment and Protocols covers the fundamental techniques of melanoma telephone biology and tradition whereas increasing upon the new shift in mobile tradition equipment from the iteration of latest telephone strains to using basic cells.

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, experiences of 'port-site' deposits following laparoscopic surgical procedure for malignancy, particularly laparoscopic resection of colonic melanoma, have forged a shadow at the knowledge of the laparoscopic strategy within the surgical guy­ agement in sufferers with melanoma. these experiences of port-site deposits, a few ninety situations pronounced 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 sturdy tu­ mors and the criteria that underlie their winning implantation in surgical wounds either within the presence and lack of a favorable strain pneumoperito­ neum.

In view of the known goiterogenic action of certain foods (see p. 29), the latter factor may have been of considerable importance. Even if it is granted that the administration of iodine was responsible for the differences in the incidence of goiter, it does 27 28 THYROID not follow that this reduction resulted from its making good a deficiency. It may have had a pharmacodynamic action. The small amounts of iodide used may seem to argue against this. It is true the amounts of iodide used for other purposes are much greater, but the concentration in the tissues to be affected may not be.

Nevertheless, the early statements relative to the malig­ nant degeneration of adenomas continue to be quoted. Some writers pre­ sent evidence of an etiologic relationship between nodular goiters generally and malignant tumors. Others believe that the danger of cancer arising on the basis of ordinary nodular goiter is relatively insignificant, and are of the opinion that it is the true benign adenoma which is the frequent pre­ cursor of carcinoma. Both of these propositions must be considered. While there is a distinct trend toward the differentiation of nodular goiter from true benign adenoma, there is no general agreement as to the existence, frequency, etiology, or clinical manifestations of true adenomas as contrasted with nodular goiter.
