Malignant breast tumors typically appear in mammograms with rough, spiculated, or microlobulated contours, whereas most benign masses have smooth, round, oval, or macrolobulated contours. Several studies have shown that shape factors that incorporate differences as above can provide high accuracies

OBJECTIVE
To study the clinicopathologic features and differential diagnosis of 18 cases of endocrine ductal carcinoma-in-situ (E-DCIS).
METHODS
Eighteen cases of breast cancer with features of E-DCIS were studied by light microscopy, histochemistry and immunohistochemistry. E-DCIS was diagnosed if
Docetaxel is a first-line chemotherapeutic agent for treating advanced breast cancer. The development of chemoresistance or multidrug resistance (MDR), however, results in breast cancer chemotherapy failure. This study aims to explore the molecular mechanisms underlying docetaxel-resistance in
Collagen, a major component of the extracellular matrix, is important in maintaining the in vivo characteristics of epidermal cells in vitro. In the present study, the morphological and proliferative characteristics of two human mammary epithelial cell lines (T-47D and MCF-7) cultured in cowhide
In this study, aldehyde dehydrogenase 1 (ALDH1)-expressing cells in stroma of histologically normal breast tissue from premenopausal women were investigated in situ regarding cellular morphology, cell distribution, and relation to the additional stem cell markers, CD44 (+) and CD24 (-). These
Breast cancer adversely affects the health status of women; therefore, the prevention and treatment of breast cancer is of critical importance. Lycopene is known to possess several biological effects such as removal of free radicals, alleviation of biological oxidative injury, and inhibition of
Digestion of primary breast cancers and their metastases with collagenase yields cell clusters which can be selectively isolated from stromal cells and from the less malignant-looking epithelium of the primary tumors by their failure to attach as rapidly to collagen gel. Continued passage in culture
We have demonstrated previously that many human cancer cell lines maintained in tissue culture possess specific cell surface receptors for human prolactin (HPRL) and human growth hormone (HGH). In the present studies, the biological response in vitro of one human breast cancer cell line, T-47D, to
Most benign breast tumors possess well-defined, sharp boundaries that delineate them from surrounding tissues, as opposed to malignant tumors. Computer techniques proposed to date for tumor analysis have concentrated on shape factors of tumor regions and texture measures. While shape measures based
BACKGROUND
The diagnosis of breast lesions is usually confirmed by fine-needle aspiration cytology (FNAC) or histological biopsy. Although there is increasing literature regarding the advantages and limitations of both modalities, there is no literature regarding the accuracy of these modalities for
BACKGROUND
Metastases to the breast from extramammary malignancies are very rare, and ruling out the diagnosis of primary breast tumor is important in order to decide on clinical management and predict prognosis.
METHODS
Clinical examination revealed in a 49-year-old hairdresser a 3-cm hard lump
The response of single breast cancer cells (cell line T-47D) to 17beta-estradiol (E(2)) under different concentrations was studied by using an instrument that allows to combine far-field light microscopy with high resolution scanning near-field (AFM/SNOM) microscopy on the same cell. Different
Water-soluble upconversion nanoparticles (UCNPs) that exhibit significant ultraviolet, blue, and red emissions under 980-nm laser excitation were successfully synthesized for performing near infrared (NIR)-triggered photodynamic therapy (PDT). The lanthanide-doped UCNPs bearing oleate ligands were
The aim of this study was to synthesize selenium nanoparticles (SeNPs) using cell suspension and total cell protein of Acinetobacter sp. SW30 and optimize its synthesis by studying the influence of physiological and physicochemical parameters. Also, we aimed to compare its anticancer activity with
