Journal ArticleDOI

Identification of p53 gene mutations in bladder cancers and urine samples

TL;DR: The p53 mutations are the first genetic alterations demonstrated to occur in a high proportion of primary invasive bladder cancers, and Detection of such mutations ex vivo has clinical implications for monitoring individuals whose tumor cells are shed extracorporeally.
Journal ArticleDOI

Unusual retention of rhodamine 123 by mitochondria in muscle and carcinoma cells.

TL;DR: Mitochondria in cardiac muscle cells and myoblast-fused myotubes display unusually long retention times of rhodamine 123, a mitochondria-specific fluorescent probe, in living cells, and the presence of mitochondria having unusual dye retention may be useful for diagnosis and exploitable for chemotherapy of certain human carcinomas.
Journal ArticleDOI

The DCC Protein and Prognosis in Colorectal Cancer

TL;DR: In stage II colorectal carcinomas, the absence of DCC identifies a subgroup of patients with lesions that behave like stage III cancers, which may have therapeutic implications in this group of patients.
Journal Article

Selective Toxicity of Rhodamine 123 in Carcinoma Cells in Vitro

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that with continuous exposure, rhodamine 123 selectively kills carcinoma as compared to normal epithelial cells grown in vitro.
Journal Article

Microsatellite Instability in Bladder Cancer

TL;DR: Somatic instability at microsatellite repeats was detected in 6 of 200 transitional cell carcinomas of the bladder, suggesting that these alterations can occur early in bladder tumorigenesis.
