    In vitro detection of mdr1 mRNA in murine leukemia cells with 111In-labeled oligonucleotide

    The feasibility of intracellular mdr1 mRNA expression detection with radiolabeled antisense oligonucleotide (ODN) was investigated in the murine leukemia cell line, P388/S, and its subclonal, adriamycin-resistant...

    Improved survival of mice bearing liver metastases of colon cancer cells treated with a combination of radioimmunotherapy and antiangiogenic therapy

    We attempted to determine whether the combined regimen of radioimmunotherapy (RIT) and antiangiogenic therapy would favorably affect the survival of animals bearing liver metastases of colon cancer cells. Dail...

    Reduction of 99mTc-sestamibi and 99mTc-tetrofosmin uptake in MRP-expressing breast cancer cells under hypoxic conditions is independent of MRP function

    Hypoxia reduces the uptake of technetium-99m sestamibi (MIBI) in human cancer cell lines. In the current investigation, we attempted to identify the relationship between hypoxia-induced alteration of 99mTc-MIBI a...

    Local delivery of 131I-MIBG to treat peritoneal neuroblastoma

    Internal radiotherapy involving systemic administration of iodine-131 metaiodobenzylguanidine (131I-MIBG) in neural crest tumours such as neuroblastoma has shown considerable success. Although peritoneal seeding ...

    Benefits of combined radioimmunotherapy and anti-angiogenic therapy in a liver metastasis model of human colon cancer cells

    The combined use of anti-angiogenic therapy (AT) and radioimmunotherapy (RIT) may improve the therapeutic outcome in patients with cancer lesions. This hypothesis is based on the ability of AT to suppress tum...

    Hypoxia-induced alteration of tracer accumulation in cultured cancer cells and xenografts in mice: implications for pre-therapeutic prediction of treatment outcomes with 99mTc-sestamibi, 201Tl chloride and 99mTc-HL91

    Weak visualization of tumours in pre-therapeutic scintigrams with technetium-99m sestamibi (MIBI) is likely a predictive sign of unfavourable tumour response to radiotherapy and chemotherapy. However, factors...

    Anti-angiogenic therapy and radioimmunotherapy in colon cancer xenografts

    Angiogenesis is critical to the growth and metastatic process of malignant tumors. An endogenous estrogen metabolite, 2-methoxyestradiol (2-ME), displays anti-angiogenic and anti-tumorigenic effects. The purp...

    Improved response of colon cancer xenografts to radioimmunotherapy with pentoxifylline treatment

    A methylxanthine, pentoxifylline (PTX), has the potential to improve tumour microcirculation and oxygenation in vivo. We aimed to determine whether this agent would enhance the response of tumours to experime...

    Visualization of the thymus with therapeutic doses of radioiodine in patients with thyroid cancer

    Two cases of papillary carcinoma of the thyroid are presented in which whole-body scans following therapeutic doses of iodine-131 revealed intense anterior mediastinal uptake. In both cases, the mediastinal up...
