Journal ArticleDOI
Nanomechanical analysis of cells from cancer patients
TL;DR: This work reports the stiffness of live metastatic cancer cells taken from the body fluids of patients with suspected lung, breast and pancreas cancer, and shows that nanomechanical analysis correlates well with immunohistochemical testing currently used for detecting cancer.
Journal ArticleDOI
AFM-based analysis of human metastatic cancer cells
TL;DR: Results show it is unlikely that morphology alone is sufficient to explain the difference in elastic moduli for metastatic cancer cells and benign mesothelial cells, and indicate that biomechanical-based functional analysis may provide an additional platform for cytological evaluation and diagnosis of cancer in the future.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ganoderma lucidum extracts inhibit growth and induce actin polymerization in bladder cancer cells in vitro
Qing-Yi Lu,Yusheng Jin,Qifeng Zhang,Zuo-Feng Zhang,David Heber,Vay Liang W. Go,Frederick P. Li,Jianyu Rao +7 more
TL;DR: Ethanol and water extracts of fruiting bodies and spores of the G. lucidum were used to examine growth inhibition, actin polymerization status, and impact of actin remodeling on cell migration and adhesion, and results showed that ethanol extracts had a stronger growth inhibition effect than water extracts.
Journal ArticleDOI
Applicability of AFM in cancer detection
Journal ArticleDOI
Green tea extract selectively targets nanomechanics of live metastatic cancer cells
TL;DR: The data indicates that GTE selectively targets human metastatic cancer cells but not normal mesothelial cells, a finding that is significantly advantageous compared to conventional chemotherapy agents.
