Do osteopontin and thrombospondin-1 play opposite roles in promoting tumor aggressiveness of primary resected non-small cell lung cancer?
Our results show that pre-treatment OPN and TSP-1 serum levels may reflect the aggressiveness of the tumor and might serve as prognostic markers in patients with primary resected NSCLC.
Hemodynamic parameters following transplantation were improved significantly in dogs treated with FK3311. Therefore, the inhibition of COX-2 improves transplanted cardiac function following long-term preservation.
