[Diabetes mellitus and cancer: a system of insulin-like growth factors].

Diabetes mellitus and malignant tumors are among the most common and complex diseases. Epidemiological studies have shown a strong relationship between these pathologies. The causality of this relationship has not yet been unambiguously established, but a number of probable biological mechanisms have been proposed to explain it through the effects of hyperglycemia, hyperinsulinemia on the process of oncogenesis.

Method to Create Multiple Primary Malignant Neoplasms with Stimulation of Tumor Growth under Conditions of Primary Immunodeficiency in Experiment.

The experimental model of synchronous multiple primary malignant tumors (MPMT) was created. B16/F10 melanoma (0.5 ml of suspension diluted 1:20 in saline) and sarcoma 45 (0.

DNA damage in circulating leukocytes measured with the comet assay may predict the risk of death.

The comet assay or single cell gel electrophoresis, is the most common method used to measure strand breaks and a variety of other DNA lesions in human populations. To estimate the risk of overall mortality, mortality by cause, and cancer incidence associated to DNA damage, a cohort of 2,403 healthy individuals (25,978 person-years) screened in 16 laboratories using the comet assay between 1996 and 2016 was followed-up. Kaplan-Meier analysis indicated a worse overall survival in the medium and high tertile of DNA damage (p < 0.

Experimental Modeling of Multiple Primary Malignant Processes with One Tumor Suppressed by Another under Conditions of Primary Immunodeficiency.

The phenomenon of multiple primary malignant tumors (MPMT) is characterized by the presence of several primary neoplasms in the same patient. An experimental model of MPMT with one dominating tumor was developed. Female BALB/c nude mice received simultaneous subcutaneous inoculation of Guerin's carcinoma (5×10 tumor cells in 0.
