triolein/neoplasms

BACKGROUND Triolein emulsion infusion into the carotid artery has been reported to induce temporary and reversible opening of the blood-brain barrier by increasing vascular permeability. OBJECTIVE To evaluate the effect of triolein emulsion infusion on brain permeance by anticancer

The differences in the biochemistry of normal and cancerous tissue could be better exploited by Raman spectroscopy when the spectral information from normal tissue is subtracted from the abnormal tissues. In this study, we evaluated the use of the normal-subtracted spectra to evidence the

A large amount of triacylglycerol lipase activity was present in the circulating blood of normal mice, and this activity decreased with development of Sarcoma 180 inoculated intraperitoneally. Triacylglycerol lipase in plasma of both normal and tumor-bearing mice was retained on the

UNASSIGNED While small molecules can be used in cancer diagnosis there is a need for imageable diagnostic NanoParticles (NPs) that act as surrogates for the therapeutic NPs. Many NPs are composed of hydrophobic materials so the challenge is to formulate hydrophobic imaging agents. To develop

The growth rate of the MAC16 tumour in cachectic animals was significantly enhanced by the hypolipidemic agent bezafibrate, while the growth rate of a histologically similar tumour, the MAC13, which grows without an effect on host body compartments was unaffected. Growth of the MAC16 in vitro was

Triesters of glycerin and aliphatic acids, known generically as glyceryl triesters and specifically as Trilaurin, etc., are used in cosmetic products as occlusive skin-conditioning agents and/or nonaqueous viscosity-increasing agents. Hundreds of glyceryl triesters are used in a wide variety of

The effects of the formulation and particle composition of gadolinium (Gd)-containing lipid nanoemulsion (Gd-nanoLE) on the biodistribution of Gd after its intravenous (IV) injection in D(1)-179 melanoma-bearing hamsters were evaluated for its application in cancer neutron-capture therapy.

Triolein emulsion has been known to increase vascular permeability in the brain when it is infused into the carotid artery. The purpose of this study was to identify the morphologic mechanism of increased vascular permeability in brain induced by infusion of emulsified triolein into the carotid

The effects of gastrectomies and those reconstructions for gastric cancer on gut hormone release, GI tract transit time, RISA absorption test and triolein digestion and absorption test were investigated clinically. The patient's quality of life was evaluated by the reconstructive methods. In the

In this study, the isolation of an endophytic fungus from the leaves of the medicinal herb adlay (Coix lacryma-jobi L. var. ma-yuen Stapf) is reported for the first time. The fungus produced Triolein (trioleoylglycerol), a major constituent of triacylglycerols (TAGs) of adlay, in rice medium under

Colorectal cancer with peritoneal metastasis has a poor prognosis because of inadequate responses to systemic chemotherapy. Cytoreductive surgery followed by intraperitoneal (IP) chemotherapy using oxaliplatin has attracted attention; however, the short half-life of oxaliplatin and its rapid

The story starts in Basel at CLINAM in 2013, when I asked Pieter about making nanoparticles and he advised me to "try this solvent-exchange method we have developed for making limit sized particles". We are particularly interested in what are "limit size materials" because we want to test the

In 12 patients with biopsy-proven pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma, the following were determined: (1) whether decreased food intake, malabsorption, or altered fat metabolism were associated with weight loss; (2) the effect of pancreatic extract as treatment for malabsorption; and (3) the accuracy

Membrane lipid therapy is a novel approach to rationally design or discover therapeutic molecules that target membrane lipids. This strategy has been used to design synthetic fatty acid analogs that are currently under study in clinical trials for the treatment of cancer. In this context, and with

Aqueous extracts of acetone/ether powders of surgically obtained specimens of human tumors hydrolyzed 3H-labeled triolein in a dose-dependent manner. The lipolytic activity in these extracts was inhibited by anti-lipoprotein lipase (LPL) IgG dose-dependently, 25 micrograms of anti-LPL IgG causing
