## Abstract Osteolytic bone metastasis is a frequent problem in the treatment of cancer. Ipriflavone, a synthetic isoflavone that inhibits osteoclastic bone resorption, has been used for the treatment of osteoporosis in some countries. Some other isoflavones also exhibit an antitumor effect __in vi

## Abstract Mouse mammary tumor virus (MMTV), a member of the betaretroviridae, is the most common cause of breast cancer (BC) in mice. MMTV is transmitted in mice both in the germline as endogenous proviruses and exogenously as infectious virions. Here, we review a variety of evidence accumulated
## Abstract Prostate cancer metastasis to the bone occurs at high frequency in patients with advanced disease, causing significant morbidity and mortality. Over a century ago, the βseed and soilβ theory was proposed to explain organβspecific patterns of metastases. Today, this theory continues to b
Few animal models are available to study metastasis formation. The purpose of the present study was to obtain a useful model of metastasis formation in nude mice in an attempt to analyze the stroma reaction and in particular the production and the expression of hyaluronan (HA), hyaluronidase, and HA
Bone metastasis is one of the major causes of increased morbidity and eventual mortality in breast cancer patients. Therefore, intervention of bone metastases is one of the important targets in the management of breast cancer. In the present study, we examined the effects of the orally administrable
