Squamous Cell Carcinoma

Squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) is a carcinomatous cancer occurring in many different organs, including the skin, lips, mouth, esophagus, urinary bladder, prostate, lungs, vagina, and cervix. It is a...

[Comment] Renal-cell carcinoma: a step closer to a new classification

Until the advent of next-generation sequencing, somatic genetic changes common in sporadic renal-cell carcinoma were largely unknown. Mutations in the VHL gene, discovered by linkage analysis in hered...

[Articles] Single nucleotide polymorphisms and risk of recurrence of renal-cell carcinoma: a cohort study

Patients with localised renal-cell carcinoma and the MET polymorphism rs11762213 might have an increased risk of recurrence after nephrectomy. If these results are further validated in a similar popul...

Renal Cell Carcinoma Phase III Data

New trial results on pazopanib and temsirolimus have important implications for patients New results from phase III trials exploring treatment options for patients with advanced renal cell carcinoma...

Renal Cell Tumors More Likely To Metastasize Better Identified By Chemical Shift MRI

Adding "chemical shift" techniques to MRI can help differentiate clear cell renal cell carcinoma from other types of renal cell cancer, a new study shows. That differentiation can help physicians bett...

Metastatic renal cell carcinoma (mRCC) therapy: an interview with Charles A. Nicolette, Ph.D., CSO of Argos Therapeutics

Metastatic renal cell carcinoma is a devastating disease. There are roughly 20-25,000 new cases per year in the United States and it is increasing for some reason.

Study shows chemical shift MRI can help differentiate clear cell renal carcinoma from other renal cancer

Adding "chemical shift" techniques to MRI can help differentiate clear cell renal cell carcinoma from other types of renal cell cancer, a new study shows. That differentiation can help physicians bett...

[Articles] Effects on survival of BAP1 and PBRM1 mutations in sporadic clear-cell renal-cell carcinoma: a retrospective analysis with independent validation

Our findings identify mutation-defined subtypes of clear-cell renal-cell carcinoma with distinct clinical outcomes, a high-risk BAP1-mutant group and a favourable PBRM1-mutant group. These data establ...

Solid variant of papillary renal cell carcinoma with spindle cell and tubular components.

Abstract The solid variant of papillary renal cell carcinoma, when strictly defined as a tumor in which no true papillae can be identified, is extremely rare, with only a few cases reported in the lit...

A unique renal cell carcinoma with features of papillary renal cell carcinoma and thyroid-like carcinoma: a morphological, immunohistochemical and genetic study.

Chromophobe Renal Cell Carcinoma with Osteosarcoma Differentiation: Case Report and Literature Review.

Chromophobe renal cell carcinoma is a distinct subtype of renal cell carcinoma that is well known for its relatively good prognosis. When it presents with sarcomatoid differentiation, necrosis of the...

Screening and Identification of a Renal Carcinoma Specific Peptide from a Phage Display Peptide Library.

ABSTRACT: Background Specific peptide ligands to cell surface receptors have been extensively used in tumor research and clinical applications. Phage display technology is a powerful tool for the iso...

Arsenic Trioxide Increases the Sensitivity of 786-0 Renal Carcinoma Cells to Radiotherapy.

We evaluated the combined effect of As(2)O(3) and ionizing radiation on cultured renal carcinoma cells. The cells receiving both As(2)O(3) and radiotherapy had more DNA damage, more apoptosis, more re...
