BACKGROUND
Gastric carcinosarcoma with severe venous invasion is extremely rare, and to the best of our knowledge, this is the first reported case.
METHODS
A 79-year-old man visited the Onomichi General Hospital following abnormal upper gastrointestinal series findings. Laboratory data demonstrated
OBJECTIVE
To determine novel prognostic factors and treatment modalities for uterine carcinosarcoma (UCS).
METHODS
We performed immunohistochemical staining of estrogen receptor (ER)-α, ER-β, progesterone receptor, gonadotropin-releasing hormone receptor, vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF),
The effects of carbohydrate-deficient diets on the growth of the Walker carcinosarcoma 256 in rats and on the carcinostatic action of the glucose analogue 2-deoxyglucose were studied. All diets contained 13.0% casein with glucose levels as indicated and the balance of calories present as corn oil
A cell line designated as NEYS was established from ovarian carcinosarcoma (stage IIIc) of a 56-year-old Japanese woman. The extirpated original tumor was carried in growth medium at 0 degrees C to the culture room. The primary culture was done on 20 August 2003. The cell line was composed of
Herein is presented a case of carcinosarcoma of the pancreas in an 82-year-old woman, analyzed on immunohistochemistry and K-ras sequence. The tumor, which arose in the pancreas head, was removed on pancreaticoduodenectomy. The patient died, however, of disseminated intravascular coagulation
Tumor cell-platelet interactions have been shown to be involved in the process of metastasis. This study characterizes the aggregation of washed platelets induced by the human uterine carcinosarcoma Colo 526. Ultrastructural studies revealed a two-stage process in which the earliest events were the
A 64-year-old Japanese woman without a history of viral hepatitis was admitted for investigation of a huge liver mass. The tumor, measuring 14 × 12 × 22 cm, had invaded the diaphragm, right lung, and inferior vena cava. Serum examinations demonstrated high levels of carbohydrate antigen 19-9
Published data concerning the effects of hypertonicity on cell motility have often been controversial. The interpretation of results often rests on the premise that cell responses result from cell dehydration, i.e. osmotic effects. The results of induced hypertonicity on cell movement of
Carcinosarcoma of the esophagus or esophagogastric junction (EGJ) is a rare malignancy with both carcinomatous and sarcomatous components. There is no report of carcinosarcoma arising from the EGJ wherein the carcinomatous element was adenocarcinoma. We describe a patient with Fat-based total parenteral nutrition (TPN) has been shown to maintain the host nutritionally equivalent to carbohydrate-based TPN in a rat model; however, data on body composition have not been obtained. This study compared the effects of a lipid-based TPN regimen to those of an isocaloric
This study was undertaken to determine if the proportions of intravenous carbohydrate and fat calories influence the relative growth of a Walker 256 carcinosarcoma and its host. Rats injected intraperitoneally with Walker 256 carcinosarcoma cells were randomized into three total parenteral nutrition
An anti-neoplastic protein was isolated from the endosperm of the seeds of Caesalpinia gilliesii by extraction with water, dialysis and precipitation by ammonium sulfate or acidification. The precipitated protein mixture was separated by column chromatography into three principal proteins, one of
