BACKGROUND. Angiogenesis and antiangiogenesis, as applied to oncology, are phenomena in which (1) tumors acquire a new blood vascular system from the host that is needed for their growth progression and metastasis; and (2) factors are produced that interfere with neovascularization, thereby inhibiti

โฆ Synopsis
Susceptibility of Noble strain rats to induced cancers in the accessory sex glands was determined. Following an IV inoculation of methylnitrosourea plus three successive SC implants of testosterone propionate, early stage adenocarcinomas were observed in the seminal vesicles and anterior prostates, but not in the dorsolateral nor in the ventral lobes.

## Abstract ## Purpose To develop an imageโbased classification system for seminal vesicle lesions (SVL) to detect seminal vesicle invasion (SVI) in prostate cancer and to evaluate whether pattern analysis of SVL with MR imaging could improve the accuracy of evaluating SVI. ## Materials and Metho
BACKGROUND. Gene-regulated mechanisms govern tumor development, but the actual development of tumors can be suppressed or promoted by epigenetic factors. Lobund-Wistar (L-W) rats are genetically predisposed to development of spontaneous and induced metastasizing moderately differentiated adenocarcin
Hepatocyte nuclear factor-3โฃ (HNF-3โฃ), a member of the hepatocyte-forkheadhomolog family of transcription factors, regulates gene expression in the endoderm-derived liver and lung. To determine if HNF-3โฃ might also play a role in endodermal derivatives of the urogenital sinus, the expression of HNF-
Previous experiments have shown that seminal vesicle mesenchyme (SVM) can induce small 0.5 mrn fragments of the rat Dunning tumor (DT) to undergo secretory differentiation with a concomitant reduction in tumorigenesis. In the present experiments Dunning tumor epithelial cells (DTE) were purified fro
