liposarcoma/potassium

Tumor-specific and skin-reactive antigen of a syngeneic liposarcoma (H-10) of Hartley/F guinea pig was solubilized with 3M potassium chloride and purified by precipitation with 2M ammonium sulfate, followed by Sephadex G-200 gel filtration. The antigenic activity of 7 fractions obtained was

The ether à go-go1 (Eag1) channel is overexpressed in a variety of cancers. However, the expression and function of Eag1 in liposarcoma are poorly understood. In the present study, the mRNA expression of Eag1 in different adipose tissue samples was examined by real-time PCR. Then, the protein

Myxoid liposarcoma is a rare form of soft-tissue sarcoma. Although most patients initially respond well to treatment, approximately 21% relapse, highlighting the need for alternative treatments. To identify novel treatment regimens and gain a better understanding of myxoid liposarcoma tumor biology,

BACKGROUND The expression of the human Eag1 potassium channel (Kv10.1) is normally restricted to the adult brain, but it has been detected in both tumour cell lines and primary tumours. Our purpose was to determine the frequency of expression of Eag1 in soft tissue sarcoma and its potential clinical

A 52-year old man developed hyperkalaemia on the 11th postoperative day following an extensive open retroperitoneal liposarcoma resection that included splenectomy. Despite thorough investigations, no aetiology for the hyperkalaemia was identified and standard empirical treatment was ineffective. On

BACKGROUND Chemotherapy for soft tissue sarcomas remains unsatisfactory due to their low chemosensitivity. Even the first line chemotherapeutic agent doxorubicin only yields a response rate of 18-29%. The antibiotic salinomycin, a potassium ionophore, has recently been shown to be a potent compound

TLS (Translocated in liposarcoma) has been characterized as a rearranged gene in chromosomal translocations specific of human myxoid liposarcoma. The various cellular functions of TLS participating either in transcription or splicing processes are thought the involvement of an interaction of TLS
