Alternatively, inflammation-induced activation of the pro-tumor cytokine family causes epigenetic modifications. A persistent inflammatory response in individuals with ulcerative colitis and inflammatory bowel disease causing oxidative stress and activation of TNF-α and NF-ҡB (tumor promoting cytokines) has been suggested as a major cause for colorectal cancer (Kraus et al., 2009). Activation of cytokines like STAT3 and NF-ҡB can also induce stem cell-like phenotype and stem cell expansion in…

From the above literature, it appears that most of the studies related to adapting the survivor identity were conducted in the US; where the concept of survivorship was developed. Some women were recruited from cancer…

sensitivity, other target specific radiotracers or other imaging modalities, such as MRI should be considered. The most useful role for FDG PET/CT in detection of EMD is as a screening tool for neurologically asymptomatic patients undergoing routine cancer workup and follow-up [43]. Once epidural disease has been identified, MRI, the gold standard for spinal imaging, can further delineate anatomic details for radiation therapy or surgical planning purposes [32-34]. On MRI, epidural lesions are…
