PIPAC versus HIPEC: cisplatin spatial distribution and diffusion in a swine model.
Conclusions: With doses used in clinical practice, HIPEC guaranteed a higher cisplatin peritoneal uptake than PIPAC in this swine model. Spatial drug distribution was heterogeneous with both technics, with hotspots closed to the drug delivery sites. Nevertheless, considering the dose ratio, IP drug uptake yield was better with PIPAC.

Pd13-10 preclinical trial of serial mitogel® instillations into the pelvicalyceal system of the yorkshire swine
MitoGel® is a novel drug consisting of TC-3 - a novel hydrogel polymer that is liquid at cold temperatures, but solidifies to a gel state at body temperature - and can be combined with varying doses of mitomycin C (MMC). MitoGel® has generated interest as a treatment for upper tract urothelial cancer given its ability to provide sustained contact between MMC and the urothelium of the pelvicalyceal system. The safety of repeated instillations of MitoGel® is not fully established. Herein we present preliminary results of serial instillations of MitoGel® into the kidneys of Yorkshire swine.

Correlation of molecular and morphologic effects of thermoembolization in a swine model using mass spectrometry imaging
AbstractHepatocellular carcinoma is a growing worldwide problem with a high mortality rate. This malignancy does not respond well to chemotherapy, and most patients present late in their disease at which time surgery is no longer an option. Over the past three decades, minimally invasive methods have evolved to treat unresectable disease and prolong survival. Intra ‐arterial embolization techniques are used for large or multiple tumors but have distressingly high levels of local recurrence and can be costly to implement. A new method called thermoembolization was recently reported, which destroys target tissue by combini...

Building a gold standard to construct search filters: a case study with biomarkers for oral cancer.
CONCLUSIONS: The gold standard dataset is likely to be high quality and useful for future development and evaluation of filters for OSCC studies of potential prognostic biomarkers. IMPLICATIONS: The methodology we used is generalizable to other domains requiring a reference standard to evaluate the performance of search filters. A gold standard is essential because the labels regarding relevance enable computation of diagnostic metrics, such as sensitivity and specificity. Librarians and informationists with data analysis skills could contribute to developing gold standard datasets and subsequent filters tuned for thei...

Search for potential Inducible Nitric Oxide Synthase inhibitors with favorable ADMET profiles for the therapy of Helicobacter pylori infections.
CONCLUSION: The top-ranked compounds from the virtual screening workflow show promising results regarding the iNOS inhibition profile. The results evidenced the importance of the ionic bonding during docking selection, playing a crucial role in binding and positioning during ligand-target selection for iNOS.

Human blood plasma proteome mapping for search of potential markers of the lung squamous cell carcinoma.
Authors: Shevchenko VE, Kovalev SV, Arnotskaya NE, Zborovskaya IB, Akhmedov BB, Polotskii BE, Kostin AU, Moukeria AF, Zaridze DG, Davidov MI Abstract Blood plasma proteomes obtained from 77 lung squamous cell carcinoma (LSCC) patients (Stages I-III) and 67 healthy controls (all males) were analyzed by using the label-free liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) method for the search of potential cancer biomarkers. All plasma samples were depleted of 14 highly-abundant plasma proteins by immune-affinity column chromatography before LC-MS/MS. We identified and quantified 809 differential proteins wi...

Biomarker Analyses of Clinical Outcomes in Patients With Advanced Hepatocellular Carcinoma Treated With Sorafenib With or Without Erlotinib in the SEARCH Trial.
CONCLUSIONS: Baseline plasma HGF, VEGF-A, KIT, and VEGF-C correlated with clinical outcomes in HCC patients treated with sorafenib with or without erlotinib. These biomarkers plus epigen constituted a multimarker signature for improved OS. PMID: 27220960 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Characterizing Diagnostic Search Patterns in Digital Breast Pathology: Scanners and Drillers
AbstractFollowing a baseline demographic survey, 87 pathologists interpreted 240 digital whole slide images of breast biopsy specimens representing a range of diagnostic categories from benign to atypia, ductal carcinoma in situ, and invasive cancer. A web-based viewer recorded pathologists ’ behaviors while interpreting a subset of 60 randomly selected and randomly ordered slides. To characterize diagnostic search patterns, we used the viewport location, time stamp, and zoom level data to calculate four variables: average zoom level, maximum zoom level, zoom level variance, and scan ning percentage. Two distinct search ...

Molecules, Vol. 23, Pages 567: Identification and Characterizations of Novel, Selective Histone Methyltransferase SET7 Inhibitors by Scaffold Hopping- and 2D-Molecular Fingerprint-Based Similarity Search
heng Luo Kai Chen SET7, serving as the only histone methyltransferase that monomethylates ‘Lys-4’ of histone H3, has been proved to function as a key regulator in diverse biological processes, such as cell proliferation, transcriptional network regulation in embryonic stem cell, cell cycle control, protein stability, heart morphogenesis and development. What′s more, SET7 is involved inthe pathogenesis of alopecia aerate, breast cancer, tumor and cancer progression, atherosclerosis in human carotid plaques, chronic renal diseases, diabetes, obesity, ovarian cancer, prostate cancer, hepatocellular carcinoma, and ...

Large deletion at the CDC73 gene locus and search for predictive markers of the presence of a CDC73 genetic lesion.
We report a novel large genomic CDC73 gene deletion identified in an Italian HPT-JT family. Age at onset < 41.5 ys and Ca2+ > 13.96 mg/dL are predictive for the presence of a CDC73 genetic lesion. PMID: 29755684 [PubMed]

Role of "Second Look" Lymph Node Search in Harvesting Optimal Number of Lymph Nodes for Staging of Colorectal Carcinoma.
Authors: Hamza A, Sakhi R, Khawar S, Alrajjal A, Edens J, Khurram MS, Khan U, Szpunar S, Mazzara P Abstract As with other malignancies, lymph node metastasis is an important staging element and prognostic factor in colorectal carcinomas. The number of involved lymph nodes is directly related to decreased 5-year overall survival for all pT stages according to United States Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) cancer registry database. The National Quality Forum specifies that the presence of at least 12 lymph nodes in a surgical resection is one of the key quality measures for the evaluation of colorec...

Cellular mesenchymal epithelial transition (C-MET) gene copy number variation in gastric adenocarcinoma: A pilot search for new marker for targeted therapy in HER-2/neu resistance.
Abstract Increasing HER-2/neu resistance in gastric carcinoma has encouraged search for new biomarkers for targeted therapy. Cellular mesenchymal epithelial transition (C-MET) is one such tyrosine kinase inhibitor proposed for personalized salvage treatment. We determined frequency of C-MET gene copy number variation (CNV) by Fluorescent in-situ hybridization (FISH) in gastric adenocarcinoma (GAC) and sought its correlation with conventional clinicopathologic parameters. Dual-coloured FISH was done on 32 GAC cases. C-MET gene and centromere 7 signals were counted under fluorescent microscope and ratio was calculat...

In Search of TGCT Biomarkers: A Comprehensive In Silico and Histopathological Analysis.
Authors: Raos D, Krasic J, Masic S, Abramovic I, Coric M, Kruslin B, Katusic Bojanac A, Bulic-Jakus F, Jezek D, Ulamec M, Sincic N Abstract Testicular germ cell tumors (TGCTs) are ever more affecting the young male population. Germ cell neoplasia in situ (GCNIS) is the origin of TGCTs, namely, seminomas (SE) and a heterogeneous group of nonseminomas (NS) comprising embryonal carcinoma, teratoma, yolk sac tumor, and choriocarcinoma. Response to the treatment and prognosis, especially of NS, depend on precise diagnosis with a necessity for discovery of new biomarkers. We aimed to perform comprehensive in silico analy...

Performance of 18 F-FDG-PET/CT as a next step in the search of occult primary tumors for patients with head and neck squamous cell carcinoma of unknown primary: a systematic review and meta-analysis
Conclusions18F-FDG PET/CT is useful as a next step in the search of occult primary tumors in HNSCC-UP patients defined by endoscopy with or without CT/MRI. However, in light of the high false-positive proportion, confirmatory histological investigations should be viewed as necessary practice upon positive PET/CT findings.
