PUBDATE: 20040201
Among new condensed quinolines and quinazolines the design of which were inspired by anti-cancer DNA-binding alkaloids such as camptothecin and batracyclin, DNA binding tests identify the 8-methoxy-7-piperazinylpropoxyindeno[1,2-b]quinolin-11-one tetracyclic system as a new motif for DNA recognition.

TITLE: Immunoglobulin synthesis in the "resting" breast.
PUBDATE: 19760801
Nulliparous women have a greater risk of developing breast cancer than women who have borne children, but so far no functional differences in breast tissue have been reported between parous women and nulliparae. Macroscopically and histologically normal breast tissue was obtained from 74 women of reproductive age during biopsy of benign breast lesions and was examined for the presence of plasma cells by immunfluorescence. Immunoglobulin synthesis was detected by an in-vitro culture technique. Synthesis of IgA was detected in 81% of specimans of IgG in 45%, and of IgM in 3%. IgA synthesis much more intense than IgG or IgM synthesis. Plasma cells containing IgA were seen in 71% of the specimens examined, and 88% of specimens had deposits of IgA in the ductules. The findings were not significantly incluenced by the nature of the condition necessitating biopsy or by oral contraception. Nulliparous women showed no cyclical changes, but among parous women IgA synthesis was more intense during luteal phase of the menstrual cycle. This suggests that after the first pregnancy the breast is more sensitive to progesterone.

When a diagnosis of cancer, such as prostate cancer, is made nurses may be involved in presenting the news to the patient. How that news is given can make the experience a distressing or reassuring process. In the first part of this paper, the authors examines the human qualities required by professionals and the barriers to breaking bad news.

Data from experimental model systems and population studies have implicated type I insulin-like growth factor receptor (IGF1R) signaling in many different human cancers. Drugs to disrupt IGF1R function have been developed and are now entering clinical trial. This brief review will identify key areas to consider as these clinical trials move forward.

TITLE: The Dutch experience with euthanasia: lessons for Canada?
PUBDATE: 19950601
Anne Mullens used a recent fellowship provided by the Atkinson Foundation to take an in-depth look at euthanasia in the Netherlands. During her time in Holland, she discussed the issue with doctors who support and oppose euthanasia. She accompanied a doctor as he visited a patient who was dying of cancer and was beginning to consider the possibility of euthanasia. She talked to a nonphysician who is adamantly opposed to euthanasia and carries a card stating that. She visited a hospital in Amsterdam that has received requests from foreigners seeking euthansia. Mullens offers a comprehensive look at an issue that continues to provoke strong feelings among Canadian physicians and patients.

PUBDATE: 19830301
A man with large-cell carcinoma of the lung, cerebral meningioma, occult adenocarcinoma of the prostate, and follicular adenoma of the thyroid developed symptomatic, rapidly progressive hypereosinophilia with abnormalities of eosinophil ultrastructure and bone marrow karyotype (45,X,15q22-). Although the patient's eosinophilia defied strict classification as idiopathic hypereosinophilic syndrome (HES), simple tumor-associated eosinophilia, or eosinophilic leukemia, it appeared to be incited by the lung cancer and quickly acquired malignant independence. The family had an excess of prostate cancer and lymphoproliferative neoplasms.

PUBDATE: 19940901
The incidence of polymyalgia rheumatica and temporal arteritis is increasing, mainly in elderly people. The risk of cancer during a lifetime is high in patients with positive biopsy of the temporal artery, but polymyalgia rheumatica and temporal arteritis are not to be considered as paraneoplastic syndromes. Temporal arteritis can appear in patients under treatment for polymyalgia rheumatica, and polymyalgia rheumatica can be accompanied by arthritis. Various new aspects of diagnoses and treatment are discussed.

Fine-needle aspiration in conjunction with a transrectal core biopsy was performed on a 58-year-old man who presented with a prostate nodule. The aspirate contained many cell clusters that were negative for prostatic acid phosphatase and cytologically appeared to be basal cells. The entity of basal cell hyperplasia of the prostate is discussed with reference to its appearance in aspiration cytologic examination. Emphasis is placed upon the possibility that these cells may be mistaken for cancer cells.

The etiologic relationship of a parasitic liver disease to primary liver cancer has long been debated, and reported is a case that has been encountered of a primary liver cancer coincident with Schistosomiasis japonica. A fifty-nine year-old-man was diagnosed as having a primary liver cancer complicated with liver cirrhosis. A posterior segmentectomy was performed and a microscopic examination revealed a primary liver cancer with multiple ovae of Schistosoma japonicum in the fibrous stroma of the portal spaces. Discussed is the etiologic relationship of Schistosomiasis japonica to the primary liver cancer.

PUBDATE: 19790101
In 306 patients, fiberpanendoscopy and radiology were performed within a time interval of 7 days or less. In 196 cases, radiology was performed before endoscopy and in 110 cases after endoscopy. In cases with histologically unproven divergent findings, follow-up studies were performed. In the diagnosis of gastric ulcer and gastric cancer, endoscopy with biopsy was more accurate than radiology. In the diagnosis of hiatal hernia, radiology was more accurate. Important additional findings difficult or impossible to observe with endoscopy were present in 36% of the radiological examinations. Thus, the first examination should be endoscopy when ulcer or carcinoma is suspected. In patients with uncharacteristic epigastric symptoms, radiology should be performed first.

TITLE: Geographic considerations of endometrial cancer.
PUBDATE: 19740801
There are certain problems associated with investigation of the geographic variation in the occurrence of cancer of the uterine corpus. Mortality rates are especially unsuitable for this because of the large proportion of deaths from uterine cancer which are not specified as to whether they originated in the cervix or the corpus. Incidence rates may be somewhat inflated if cytology screening is being extensively used in a population of women, but the designation between corpus and cervix is nearly complete. Incidence rates compiled by the International Union Against Cancer indicate much variation in the frequency of this cancer and that of the ovary and breast, but not with cervical cancer. In the United States southern white women tend to have cancers of the uterine corpus, breast, and ovary less frequently and of the cervix more frequently than women of the north and west. American born Japanese women are developing breast cancer nearly as frequently in California as white women, which may also be true for ovarian cancer. Uterine corpus cancer may be increasing but the population is still too young, since this cancer reaches its highest rates at older ages. All these cancers are less frequent in Japan.

PUBDATE: 20041201
There is an increasing body of evidence demonstrating that elevated growth signaling in breast cancer cells can promote forms of endocrine resistance in either an estrogen receptor-dependent or -independent manner. The current article reviews what is known about such growth factor signaling networks and resistance to estrogen withdrawal and considers the many novel therapeutic opportunities that stem from this knowledge.

PUBDATE: 20051001
Rediocide G (7), a new daphnane diterpenoid, was isolated from the roots of Trigonostemon reidioides (Euphorbiaceae), together with two congeners, rediocide A and rediocide B, (+)-syringaresinol, scopoletin, tomentin and stigmasterol. The structure of the new natural product was elucidated by comparison of its NMR and mass spectral data with those of previously known rediocides and confirmed by extensive 2D NMR spectral analysis. Rediocide G (7) was found to be cytotoxic to various cancer cell lines.
