Journal ArticleDOI

Vascular permeability and interstitial diffusion of macromolecules in the hamster cheek pouch: Effects of vasoactive drugs

TL;DR: A simple one-dimensional mathematical model which relates the number of "leaky" sites in postcapillary venules to the extravasation of macromolecules in terms of an effective microvascular permeability, P, and an effective interstitial diffusion coefficient, D, is developed and is used to analyze data for the transport of 70,000 molecular weight dextran in a hamster cheek pouch.
Journal ArticleDOI

Sunitinib monotherapy in patients with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC): Insights from a multidisciplinary phase II study

TL;DR: Sunitinib (SU) as discussed by the authors is an oral, multitargeted tyrosine molecule that is used to treat HCC and angiogenic pathways such as VEGF and IL-6.
Journal ArticleDOI

Systemic Distribution and Tumor Localization of Adoptively Transferred Lymphocytes in Mice: Comparison with Physiologically Based Pharmacokinetic Model

TL;DR: A physiologically based compartmental model of lymphocyte distribution predicted the compartmental sequestration and identified model parameters critical for experimental planning and therapeutic optimization.
Journal Article

Early events of metastasis in the microcirculation involve changes in gene expression of cancer cells. Tracking mRNA levels of metastasizing cancer cells in the chick embryo chorioallantoic membrane.

TL;DR: Using the CAM system, an alteration of gene expression in cancer cells in the early phases of metastasis is observed, most likely as a consequence of host-cancer cell interactions, which may influence the metastatic behavior of cancer cells.
