Imaging Active Urokinase Plasminogen Activator in Prostate Cancer

The increased proteolytic activity of membrane-bound and secreted proteases on the surface of cancer cells and in the transformed stroma is a common characteristic of aggressive metastatic prostate cancer. We describe here the development of an active ...

Triiodothyronine and Antitumor Responses

Bidirectional cross-talk between the neuroendocrine and immune systems orchestrates immune responses in both physiologic and pathologic settings. In this study, we provide in vivo evidence of a critical role for the thyroid hormone triiodothyronine (T...

Antitumor responses stimulated by dendritic cells are improved by triiodothyronine binding to the thyroid hormone receptor {beta}

Bi-directional crosstalk between the neuroendocrine and immune systems orchestrates immune responses in both physiologic and pathologic settings. In this study, we provide in vivo evidence of a critical role for the thyroid hormone triiodothyronine (T3...

In Vivo MR Elastography of Brain Malignancies

Malignant tumors are typically associated with altered rigidity relative to normal host tissue. Magnetic resonance elastography (MRE) enables the noninvasive quantitation of the mechanical properties of deep-seated tissue following application of an e...

Exploring the Biomechanical Properties of Brain Malignancies and their Pathological Determinants In Vivo with Magnetic Resonance Elastography.

Malignant tumors are typically associated with altered rigidity relative to normal host tissue. Magnetic resonance elastography (MRE) enables the non-invasive quantitation of the mechanical properties of deep-seated tissue following application of an e...
