BACKGROUND Chong-lou (Paris polyphylla var. yunnanensis or P. polyphylla var. chinensis) is traditionally used as an anticancer medicine in China. It is also the material basis of some Chinese patent anticancer medicines, such as Gan-Fu-Le capsules, Bo-Er-Ning capsules, Lou-Lian capsules, Ruan-Jian

OBJECTIVE To describe the mortality of Paris sewage workers. METHODS A cohort of all Paris sewage workers since 1970 was established and followed up in mortality until 1999. The causes of death were determined by matching with a national database. The mortality rates were compared to the rates of a

OBJECTIVE To study the anti-tumor active constituents from the rhizome of Paris polyphylla var. yunnanensis. METHODS The compounds were isolated by column chromatography with silica gel, and purified by Sephadex LH-20 columu chromafography and reverse-phase preparative, HPLC. The structures were

We report a multicentric outcome study of cerebral metastases in 174 patients collected consecutively in three neurosurgical centers in France. Age and condition of patients allowed surgical operation; the sex ratio was 1.67. The revelation mode was usual. However tumoral hemorrhage frequency was

Tremendous strides have been made in proteogenomics and RNA interference technologies. Hence "personalized" cancer gene therapy has become a foreseeable rather than a predictable reality. Currently, the lack of an optimized, systemic gene delivery vehicle remains a key limiting factor for developing

BACKGROUND Ultraviolet (UV) exposure is one of the most important risk factor for skin cancers. If UV hazard has been evaluated in tropical countries or in some population - children, outdoor activities - little information is available about UV hazard in high latitude towns like Paris, considered

More attention was paid to the anti-tumor activity of Rhizoma Paridis (RP) recently, of which the wild resource was decreased significantly. This study was aimed to elucidate the chemical characteristics of Paris fargesii var. brevipetala (PFB) that may be administrated as alternate resource of

Based on a method combining the LC-MS/MS molecular networking strategy with the conventional means of phytochemical research, the chemical constituents and the availability of Paris tengchongensis, a new species found in 2017 from Yunnan Province, were investigated for the first time.

The 12th International Congress on Anti-Cancer Treatment (ICACT), endorsed by the American Society of Clinical Oncology, was held in Paris, France. Led by Gabriel Hortbagyi (MD Anderson Cancer Center, USA) and David Khayat (Hopital de la Pitie Salpetriere, France), the meeting was well organized and

We studied the clinico-pathological features of 750 lung cancers identified in Paris, France, during 1988. An internal comparison was performed between adenocarcinomas and other subtypes. Survival of 502 patients was studied. 85% of patients were males; 93% were smokers or ex-smokers. Squamous cell

Paris saponins, also known as polyphyllins, are natural compounds extracted from Paris polyphylla, which have many pharmacological activities, such as anti-inflammation and anti-cancer. In particular, paris saponin I, II, VII and polyphyllin VI are the components of the quality standard for Paris
