adrenocortical carcinoma/albumin

We evaluated the expression of Hep Par 1 (hepatocyte paraffin 1 monoclonal antibody) in 42 hepatocellular carcinomas (HCCs), 25 cholangiocarcinomas, 18 tumors metastatic to the liver, and 87 primary extrahepatic tumors. Albumin in situ hybridization (ISH) was performed in the HCC cases. Of 42 cases

Very little has been known of the biochemical function of a human adrenocortical carcinoma cell line, SW-13. In this study, the production of several adrenal steroids and 3', 5'-cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) were investigated in this cell line. The cells were incubated in L-15 medium

BACKGROUND Traditional drug discovery methods have a limited role in rare cancers. We hypothesized that molecular technology including gene expression profiling could expose novel targets for therapy in adrenocortical carcinoma (ACC), a rare and lethal cancer. SPARC (secreted protein acidic rich in

Clear cell neoplasms presenting as metastatic hepatic masses may be difficult to differentiate histologically and immunohistochemically from hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) with prominent clear cell features, especially in small biopsy specimens. In situ hybridization (ISH) for albumin messenger RNA

In this study, we performed the characterization and synthesis of biocompatible and targeted albumin and graphene oxide (GO) dual-carrier paclitaxel (PTX) nanoparticles for photothermal-triggered tumor therapy. PTX absorbed on GO nanosheets as cores were coated with human serum albumin (HSA),

It has been reported that fatty liver is not uncommon in Cushing's syndrome. Biochemical data obtained from routine blood chemistry in 10 patients with Cushing's syndrome were compared with those for 15 patients with histologically verified fatty liver. We found an absence of a decreased GOT/GPT
