Background: Cancer-associated fibroblasts have been reported to play a central role in driving cancer progression, promoting metastasis, and conferring resistance to therapy in HNSCC.
Methods: Indirect and direct co-culture models of HPV-positive and HPV-negative HNSCC cells with fibroblasts were developed to study the effect of fibroblasts on cancer cells. ELISA was used to measure IL-6 secretion in these models.

Background: In recent years, transarterial periarticular embolization (TAPE) has received increasing attention in the treatment of chronic joint pain, which can be caused by degenerative changes such as osteoarthritis but also by inflammatory changes in the capsule-ligament apparatus.
Objectives: The aim of this study is to describe the method as well as preliminary results of TAPE in the treatment of therapy-resistant achillodynia.
Material And Methods: TAPE was used in the treatment of seven patients (female: 1, male: 6) with chronic achillodynia.
