Preoperative acetaminophen and carbohydrate loading has been shown to improve the functional recovery of surgical patients.To determine the effects of preoperative acetaminophen and carbohydrates on functional outcomes and the use of pain medications after Non-melanoma skin cancers (NMSC), despite having a favourable prognosis, present an increased risk of occult malignancies. The aim of this study was the evaluation of the usefulness of the mucinous marker carbohydrate 19-9 antigen (CA 19-9) in the diagnosis of occult cancers. (1) Patients and
The purpose of this research was to compare the influence of calorie restriction by removal of fat with calorie restriction by removal of carbohydrate on the promotion of skin tumorigenesis in mice. Female SENCAR mice were initiated with 7,12-dimethylbenz(a)anthracene (10 nmol, single topical
Background Acrochordons are common and benign skin tumours. A few studies with contradictory results have been reported regarding the abnormalities of carbohydrate and/or lipid metabolisms in patients with acrochordons. Objectives We aimed to determine if the presence of acrochordons could be a
Tumor initiating potential was tested for eight pyrolysates of carbohydrates in a two-stage mouse skin carcinogenesis model using 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA) as the promoter. The pyrolysates were levoglucosan (LG-I), levoglucosenone (LG-II), furfural (FF), 5-(hydroxymethyl)-2-furfural
BACKGROUND
Skin tags are common benign skin tumors usually occurring on the neck and major flexors of older people. A possible association with impaired carbohydrate metabolism has been suggested in previous studies, but the results are not conclusive.
OBJECTIVE
To investigate and compare the
Activating transcription factor (ATF)-2 is a member of the ATF/cyclic AMP-responsive element binding protein family of transcription factors. It has been shown, in vitro, to possess growth factor-independent proliferation and transformation capacity. The information concerning the involvement of
We report a 64-year-old Japanese man who developed metastatic skin cancer, in the form of 1-3 cm diameter dome-shaped tumours on his face and head. Histopathological examination demonstrated diastase-resistant periodic acid--Schiff and Alcian blue-positive signet ring cells, suggesting gastric
Inositol hexaphosphate (IP6) is a naturally occurring polyphosphorylated carbohydrate that is abundant in many plants and in various high-fiber foods, such as cereals and legumes. IP6 has a striking, broad-spectrum anticancer activity in various in vitro and animal models, in which it interferes
Melanoma is the most aggressive type of skin cancer with high rates of mortality. Despite encouraging advances demonstrated by anticancer drug carriers in recent years, developing ideal drug delivery systems to target tumor microenvironment by overcoming physiological barriers and chemotherapy side
Uptake of fucose, glucosamine, galactose, and mannose and the incorporation of these sugars into glycoconjugates have been quantified in a model epithelial tumor, the basosquamous cell carcinoma of the rat. Following isolation of glycoprotein and papain digestion, the fucosylated glycopeptides were
Previous studies in our laboratory have shown that promotion of two-stage skin carcinogenesis in the SENCAR mouse model was inhibited in mice fed energy-restricted/low-fat diets, and elevated in mice fed high-fat diets. Studies reported here describe the influence of dietary energy restriction from
Our laboratory has demonstrated in the previous studies that dietary energy restriction (DER) inhibited the promotion of skin tumorigenesis and others have found that adrenalectomy may reverse that inhibition. The purpose of the research reported here was to determine if circulating corticosterone
Acacia nilotica is a plant species that is almost ubiquitously found in different parts of the world. Various preparations of it have been advocated in folk medicine for the treatment of tuberculosis, leprosy, smallpox, dysentery, cough, ophthalmia, toothache, skin cancer as astringent,
About 20 species from Callicarpa have reported ethnobotanical and ethnomedical uses, and several members of this genus are well known in the traditional medical systems of China and South Asia. Ethnomedical reports indicate their use in the treatment of hepatitis, rheumatism, fever, headache,
