Germ cell tumor

Hypoxia is a crucial feature of locally advanced solid tumors resulting from a poor oxygen supply delivery owing to excessive cellular proliferation and abnormal vascular architecture. Under these circumstances, cancer cells develop a series of responses in order to adapt to hypoxic conditions. The tumor suppressor p53 has been shown to mediate the cellular response to hypoxia depending on many contexts including cell type, duration and severity of hypoxic exposure. The sphingolipid ceramide,…

your cherished one's condition turns more terrible. Feeling overwhelmed: It is normal to feel overwhelmed as a guardian. Giving pragmatic and enthusiastic support to somebody with tumor can feel like an all day work. Could It Be Depression? It is typical to feel tragic or irate when a friend or family member has the tumor. In any case, converse with your specialist in the event that you have any of these emotions or side effects for over two weeks: • Feeling overpowered or powerless • Prolonged…

In 1896 Roentgen presented the idea of the x-ray. Only a few months later, systems were already being designed to use the x-ray for diagnosis. Within 3 years, the radiation was being used in cancer treatment. A single idea for treatment grew in a short period of time, with the help of technology. Today we are seeing scientific advances like never before. As advancements in technology grow, the options for cancer treatment improve drastically. Sterotactic radiation, cytotron, and an…

Disease it Targets: Vincristine is used to treat various types of cancer. It is a cancer chemotherapy drug that is usually used with other chemotherapy drugs to slow down or stop cancer cell growth. Cancer treatments with vincristine include leukaemia, Hodgkin and non-Hodgkin lymphomas,neuroblastoma, Wilms' tumor, multiple myeloma, rhabdomyosarcoma, ewings sarcoma, chronic leukaemia, thyroid cancer and brain tumours. Its molecular target: Highly…

given to a set of related diseases. Normally, human cells grow and divide to form new cells as the body needs them. When normal cells grow old or get damaged, they die, and new cells replace. However, in cancer, this orderly process goes wrong. old or damaged cells survive when they should die, and new cells form when not needed. Cancer can occur some organs and each organs can have different reaction to the disease. Many cancers are solid tumors, which are masses of tissue. Blood cancers, such…

Targeting solid tumors - primary & metastatic - irrespective of their anatomical location in the body or pathological sub-type – and permeating drug molecules into the targeted tumor mass, will improve therapeutic outcomes and reduce life-threatening systemic toxicities induced by routinely administered chemotherapeutic regimens. Creating molecular dimension-specific temporary pores in the cell membrane using precisely computed, safe radiofrequencies (RF) from an external source, to…

between the two kinds of tumor. Each kind of tumor has its own characteristics. Benign tumors cannot spread out to other parts of the body because they are capsulated by a fibrous sheath of connective tissue. Therefore, they remain at their original sites. In contrast, malignant tumors (cancers) are not capsulated, so they have the ability to metastasize through blood and lymphatic vessels in a process called metastasis (1). The result of this process is new masses of the tumor will be created…

years, there have been a number of discoveries about the cause of cancer. In 1890, William Russell found out that cancer cells contain microbes. Later on, it was discovered that these microbes change their size and shape due to the pH level inside the cancer cells. In 1930, Dr. Royal Raymond Rife proved that the cancer cells revert into normal cells if the microbes inside these cells are destroyed. Dr. Rife developed “harmonic frequencies” that were 100% successful in killing these microbes.…

Integrative Research Centers at Dana-Farber Cancer Institute (A): The mission of the CNTC is to transform cancer therapy by enabling the early detection of cancer using nanoparticles and molecular imaging, as well as by developing new treatments with tumor- targeting technology. Specifically, the major activities of the center will focus on identifying unique biomarkers that could be targeted with nanoparticles themselves or antibody-labeled nanoparticles, and captured with…

Wayward Cells 1. Explain how transitions are used to lead into and out of each step. In the essay, “Wayward Cells,” the author used different transitions to explain how tumor cells cause damage to the human body in different ways. The different damages were organized in order using transition words like first, second, and third. Throughout the essay, the author also uses “for example,” to add more support to the emphasized idea. The transition words “fortunately” is used by author to entry into…
