Severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) coronavirus‑2 (SARS‑CoV2) is the cause of a new disease (COVID‑19) which has evolved into a pandemic during the first half of 2020. Older age, male sex and certain underlying diseases, including cancer, appear to significantly increase the risk for severe
Calpain 6 (Capn6) is one of the calcium-dependent intracellular nonlysosomal proteases. Recently, Capn6 was found to be overexpressed in leiomyosarcomas (LMSs) compared with normal myometrium. This investigation was performed to determine the expression of Capn6 in uterine sarcomas and
Earlier studies from this laboratory reported that, in rats bearing the Walker 256 carcinosarcoma, circulating insulin levels were significantly reduced relative to non-tumor-bearing rats. The present study extends this observation to include a significantly (P less than 0.01) reduced plasma level
OBJECTIVE
Primary peritoneal carcinosarcomas are similar to ovarian carcinomas in that they can metastasize by intraperitoneal dissemination; therefore, invasion of the submesothelial interstitial (stromal) matrix is an integral part of the pathology. Our objective was to study cell-matrix
Leukocytes contain within their lysosomal granules enzymatic activity that will generate from C5 chemotactic activity for leukocytes (neutrophils) and tumor (Walker carcinosarcoma) cells. Similar activity has been found in phagocytic supernatant fluids from neutrophils and in purified preparations
beta-lapachone (beta-lap) is a lipophilic o-naphthoquinone isolated from the bark of the lapacho tree. Initial observations proved its capability for inhibiting growth of Yoshida tumor and Walker 256 carcinosarcoma. beta-Lap redox-cycling in the presence of reductants and oxygen yields "reactive
We have examined the ability of 5 tumour cell types to attach to plastic flasks in medium containing either 10% foetal calf serum or 10% normal human serum and compared this ability with cell-associated caseinolytic activity. The cell types used included fibrosarcoma cells which were obtained from a
