Liver cancer represents the second most common cause of cancer-related mortality worldwide. The prognosis is poor with an overall mortality of 95%. Moreover, most hepatic tumors are unresectable due to their advanced stage at discovery or poor underlying l ...
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is one of the leading causes of cancer death worldwide. Gaining insight into the molecular pathways involved in the development of HCC is hence a prerequisite to design and develop novel and effective therapeutic strategies. ...
Breast cancer is the most common cancer in women worldwide, with an estimated 1.7 million newly diagnosed cases in 2012. Despite the many clinical manifestations, metastatic disease is the main cause of death, and is responsible for 90% of all breast cance ...
Heritability is often estimated by decomposing the variance of a trait into genetic and other factors. Interpreting such variance decompositions, however, is not straightforward. In particular, there is an ongoing debate on the importance of genetic factor ...
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) represents the second leading cause of cancer-related deaths and is reported to be resistant to chemotherapy caused by tumor-initiating cells. These tumor-initiating cells express stem cell markers. An accumulation of tumor-i ...
Prostate cancer is a life-threatening malignant disease, one the most common cancer types in men and leading cause of death among men because of cancer. Considering the state of the art for the diagnosis of prostate cancer a man overall has to suffer uncom ...
Breast cancer is the most common life-threatening malignancy in women of most developed countries today, with approximately 200,000 new cases diagnosed every year. About 30% of these cases progress to metastatic disease and death. Considering that one-thir ...
Prostate cancer is the most common cancer among men except for skin cancer, and the detection at early stages is crucial. In the present work, nanofabricated memristive biosensors are subjected to surface bio-modification targeting at prostate-specific ant ...
The most common cancers, including breast and skin, disseminate initially through the lymphatic system, yet the mechanisms by which tumor cells home towards, enter and interact with the lymphatic endothelium remain poorly understood. Transmural and luminal ...
