We have previously shown that fetal and adult human skin fibroblasts display distinctive migratory phenotypes when cultured on 3-dimensional collagen gels in vitro. In the present study, we have used this information to assess the migratory behavior of fibroblasts obtained from patients with either

## BACKGROUND. Recent clinical studies have demonstrated that tumor angiogenesis is a potent prognostic indicator for breast cancer patients. The quantitation of endothelial growth factors is thought to be useful to assess angiogenic phenotype in the tumor. Among the many new endothelial growth fa
Background. The biologic profile of 907 infiltrating breast carcinomas was determined considering estrogen receptor (ER) and progesterone receptor (PR), proliferation index (PI) and c-erbB-2/Neu expression. The relationship with pathologic parameters (lymph node status, size, histotype) were studied
## Background and objective: The goal of this study was to use an inexpensive macroscopic imaging system to monitor tumor progression in mouse models in real-time with minimal intervention. ## Study design/materials and methods: Illumination is provided via a xenon arc lamp and a fiber optic prob
