Example sentences for: tumor-associated

How can you use “tumor-associated” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:

  • Identification of a stable tumor-associated immunophenotype in MF/SS allows tumor cell quantification to assess response to therapy.

  • Several articles describe the identification of genes associated with the activation of ECs and angiogenesis, as well as the repertoire of genes expressed in normal versus tumor-associated endothelium [ 42 43 44 45 ] . Because EC activation is a complex process, accompanied by alterations in many aspects of EC physiology, it was not surprising that the genes identified in these studies were in several functional classes.

  • Cancer vaccines may consist of whole tumor cells or tumor lysates, but identification of tumor-associated antigens (TAAs) over the past decade has made possible the use of specific proteins or peptides as cancer vaccines.

  • In addition, eight tumor-associated stromal components (including fibroblasts, endothelial cells and inflammatory cells) were microdissected from primary tumors without known metastases for analysis.

  • TSP-1 is a homotrimeric multidomain glycoprotein synthesized and secreted by numerous cell types, including platelets, vascular smooth muscle cells and keratinocytes [ 4 ] . Due to its interaction with a wide variety of proteins, TSP-1 has been implicated in a number of biological processes including coagulation, cell adhesion, the modulation of cell-cell and cell-matrix interactions, control of tumor growth and metastasis, and angiogenesis [ 10 ] . Inhibition of tumor cell proliferation has been achieved in vivo by systemic treatment with TSP-1 peptide mimetics [ 11 ] , but a correlation between primary tumor TSP-1 expression and poor prognosis has not been clearly established [ 12 ] . While there are reports that these molecules can originate from tumor cells [ 13 ] , the majority of reports have suggested that the major source of both TSP-1 and OPN is tumor-associated stroma [ 14 ] or infiltrating macrophages and lymphocytes [ 15 ] .
