## Background: Using an orthotopic implantation model in which oral cancer invasion and metastasis can be reproduced, we investigated the inhibitory effects of anticancer agents on invasion and metastasis. ## Methods: A highly invasive and metastatic human oral squamous cell carcinoma cell line,
Thymidine phosphorylase (TP) is expressed at higher levels in a variety of human cancers than in adjacent normal tissue. It is reported that the higher expression is associated with an increase of intratumoral microvessel density and a poor prognosis. We investigated the role of TP in human non smal
The effect of butyric acid (BA) and all trans-retinoic acid (RA) on murine melanoma cells was investigated in vitro and in vivo. The in vitro assays included 3H-IdUR incorporation, adhesion, migration and invasion experiments. Butyric acid decreased 3H-IdUR cellular incorporation within 24h and incr
Bone cells are a prime target for the biological function of the fos/jun (activating protein-1 (AP-1)) transcription factor complex. Deregulated expression of c-fos or v-fos in bone cells induces tumorigenicity and the formation of non-metastatic osteosarcomas. In contrast, fos oncogenes transform f
