Comparison of two cellular harvesting methods for primary human oral culture of keratinocytes
(SPRINGER, 2009)
The possibility of obtaining transplantable oral epithelia opens new perspectives for oral treatments. Most of them are surgical, resulting in mucosal failures. As reconstructive material this in vitro epithelia would be ...
Human breast tumor slices as an alternative approach to cell lines to individualize research for each patient
(Lippincott Williams & Wilkins, 2012-07-01)
There are several breast cancer experimental models including cell lines, which are commonly used due to ease of handling and storage. However, the continued propagation of cell lines and distribution among laboratories ...
Expression of multidrug resistance proteins in prostate cancer is related with cell sensitivity to chemotherapeutic drugs
(2009)
BACKGROUND. Multidrug resistance (MDR) proteins have been associated with the lack of chemotherapy response. Expression of these proteins has been described in the prostate, but there is no information about their role in ...
Effects of Escherichia Coli subtilase cytotoxin and shiga toxin 2 on primary cultures of human renal tubular epithelial cells
(Public Library of Science, 2014-01)
Shiga toxin (Stx)-producing Escherichia coli (STEC) cause post-diarrhea Hemolytic Uremic Syndrome (HUS), which is the most common cause of acute renal failure in children in many parts of the world. Several non-O157 STEC ...
Immunocytochemical characterization of primary cell culture in canine transmissible venereal tumor
(2016-01-01)
with anti-vimentin, anti-lysozyme, anti-alpha 1 antitrypsin, anti-CD3 and anti-CD79α antibodies has been used for characterization of primary cell culture in the transmissible venereal tumor (TVT). Samples for primary cell ...
Gonadotropin releasing hormone analogs induce apoptosis by extrinsic pathway involving p53 phosphorylation in primary cell cultures of human prostatic adenocarcinomas
(Wiley, 2009)
BACKGROUND. Gonadotropin-releasing-hormone (GnRH) analogs are widely used to block
hypothalamic–pituitary–gonadal axis and inhibit blood androgen levels in patients with
prostate cancer (PCa). In addition, GnRH analogs ...
Centrosome amplification in chondrosarcomas: A primary cell culture and cryopreserved tumor sample study
(Spandidos Publ Ltd, 2017-03-01)
The genetics background underlying the aggressiveness of chondrosarcoma (CS) is poorly understood. One possible cause of malignant transformation is chromosomal instability, which involves an error in mitotic segregation ...
Genomic and phenotypic profiles of two Brazilian breast cancer cell lines derived from primary human tumors
(2013-04-01)
Breast cancer is the most common type of cancer among women worldwide. Research using breast cancer cell lines derived from primary tumors may provide valuable additional knowledge regarding this type of cancer. Therefore, ...
