Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) remains one of the most lethal cancers in the world. Since current treatment options including surgical resection and liver transplantation offer limited therapeutic benefits, there exists a need to evaluate novel…

UNLABELLED: Gpbar1 (TGR5), a membrane-bound bile acid receptor, is well known for its roles in regulation of energy homeostasis and glucose metabolism. TGR5 activation also inhibits nuclear factor kappaB (NF-kappaB)-mediated inflammation. Here we…

The second most common cause of hypercalcemia is humoral hypercalcemia of malignancy (HHM), a condition associated with increased mortality. Although hypercalcemia is usually seen in squamous cell cancers, only 13 cases have been described in…

Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) happens to be one of the most lethal cancers in the world. Even though most cases occur in the developing world, reported cases in Western Europe as well as North America are on a steep rise. Human HCC etiology includes…

OBJECTIVE: To examine the presentation, diagnosis, and appropriate management of renal clear cell carcinoma metastasis to the thyroid gland. METHODS: We describe a clinical case of solitary thyroid metastasis from renal clear cell carcinoma and…

Basal cell adenocarcinoma of minor salivary glands is a relatively rare slow-growing tumor with an infiltrating growth pattern. The infiltrating growth pattern and likelihood of vascular and perineural involvement distinguishes basal cell…

Human papillomavirus (HPV) type 16 DNA was found in three separate neoplastic lesions within a female patient. The physical state of the viral DNA in each lesion was determined by two-dimensional agarose gel electrophoresis. The primary cervical…

The effect of several novel silatrane derivatives on the growth of syngeneic renal cell carcinoma (RENCA) in BALB/c mice and the survival rate of the animals were evaluated. The RENCA-bearing animals were treated subcutaneously and weekly with either…

Mammography is an important surveillance tool for detecting ipsilateral breast tumor recurrence (IBTR) after BCS. Although IBTR is rare in the first 2 years, various organizations have established protocols for postoperative mammographic…
