      Benign cystic lesions in the testis of children 

      Liniger, B.; Fleischmann, A.; Zachariou, Zacharias (2012)
      Cystic lesions in the testis of children are rare and in most cases benign tumors. However, a preoperative diagnostic work-up could contribute to planning the surgical procedure: orchiectomy in the case of potential ...

      Clinicopathological study of the expression of syndecan-1 in invasive breast carcinomas. Correlation with extracellular matrix components 

      Tsanou, E.; Ioachim, E.; Briassoulis, E. Ch; Charchanti, A.; Damala, K.; Karavasilis, V.; Pavlidis, Nicholas; Agnantis, Niki J. (2004)
      Syndecan-1, a cell surface proteoglycan found predominantly on epithelia of mature tissues, binds both extracellular matrix (ECM) components and basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) and is implicated in the restriction ...

      Coevolution of solid stress and interstitial fluid pressure in tumors during progression: Implications for vascular collapse 

      Stylianopoulos, T.; Martin, J. D.; Snuderl, M.; Mpekris, F.; Jain, S. R.; Jain, R. K. (2013)
      The stress harbored by the solid phase of tumors is known as solid stress. Solid stress can be either applied externally by the surrounding normal tissue or induced by the tumor itself due to its growth. Fluid pressure is ...

      Hyaluronan-Derived Swelling of Solid Tumors, the Contribution of Collagen and Cancer Cells, and Implications for Cancer Therapy 

      Voutouri, C.; Polydorou, C.; Papageorgis, P.; Gkretsi, V.; Stylianopoulos, T. (2016)
      Despite the important role that mechanical forces play in tumor growth and therapy, the contribution of swelling to tumor mechanopathology remains unexplored. Tumors rich in hyaluronan exhibit a highly negative fixed charge ...

      Intratumoral CRH modulates immuno-escape of ovarian cancer cells through FasL regulation 

      Minas, V.; Rolaki, A.; Kalantaridou, S. N.; Sidiropoulos, J.; Mitrou, Sotirios; Petsas, G.; Jeschke, U.; Paraskevaidis, E.; Fountzilas, George; Chrousos, George P.; Pavlidis, Nicholas; Makrigiannakis, A. (2007)
      Although corticotropin-releasing hormone (CRH) and Fas ligand (FasL) have been documented in ovarian carcinoma, a clear association with tumour progression and immuno-escape has not been established. FasL plays an important ...

      Multiscale modelling of solid tumour growth: the effect of collagen micromechanics 

      Wijeratne, P. A.; Vavourakis, V.; Hipwell, J. H.; Voutouri, C.; Papageorgis, P.; Stylianopoulos, T.; Evans, A.; Hawkes, D. J. (2016)
      Here we introduce a model of solid tumour growth coupled with a multiscale biomechanical description of the tumour microenvironment, which facilitates the explicit simulation of fibre–fibre and tumour–fibre interactions. ...

      Multistage nanoparticle delivery system for deep penetration into tumor tissue 

      Wong, C.; Stylianopoulos, T.; Cui, J.; Martin, J.; Chauhan, V. P.; Jiang, W.; Popovic, Z.; Jain, R. K.; Bawendi, M. G.; Fukumura, D. (2011)
      Current Food and Drug Administration-approved cancer nanotherapeutics, which passively accumulate around leaky regions of the tumor vasculature because of an enhanced permeation and retention (EPR) effect, have provided ...

      The prognostic evaluation of tumor angiogenesis in invasive breast carcinoma 

      Ioachim, E.; Charchanti, A.; Charalabopoulos, K.; Tsanou, E.; Briassoulis, E. Ch; Karavasilis, V.; Pavlidis, Nicholas; Agnantis, Niki J. (2002)
      Microvessel density (MVD) was analyzed for associations with clinical and pathological factors as well as with other potential known prognostic factors such as: steroid receptor content (ER, PgR), p53 and proliferation ...

      Remodeling of extracellular matrix due to solid stress accumulation during tumor growth 

      Pirentis, A. P.; Polydorou, C.; Papageorgis, P.; Voutouri, C.; Mpekris, F.; Stylianopoulos, T. (2015)
      Solid stresses emerge as the expanding tumor displaces and deforms the surrounding normal tissue, and also as a result of intratumoral component interplay. Among other things, solid stresses are known to induce extensive ...

    • Article  

      Role of constitutive behavior and tumor-host mechanical interactions in the state of stress and growth of solid tumors 

      Voutouri, C.; Mpekris, F.; Papageorgis, P.; Odysseos, A. D.; Stylianopoulos, T. (2014)
      Mechanical forces play a crucial role in tumor patho-physiology. Compression of cancer cells inhibits their proliferation rate, induces apoptosis and enhances their invasive and metastatic potential. Additionally, compression ...

      Sonic-hedgehog pathway inhibition normalizes desmoplastic tumor microenvironment to improve chemo- and nanotherapy 

      Mpekris, F.; Papageorgis, P.; Polydorou, C.; Voutouri, C.; Kalli, M.; Pirentis, A. P.; Stylianopoulos, T. (2017)
      Targeting the rich extracellular matrix of desmoplastic tumors has been successfully shown to normalize collagen and hyaluronan levels and re-engineer intratumoral mechanical forces, improving tumor perfusion and chemotherapy. ...

      Stress-mediated progression of solid tumors: effect of mechanical stress on tissue oxygenation, cancer cell proliferation, and drug delivery 

      Mpekris, F.; Angeli, S.; Pirentis, A. P.; Stylianopoulos, T. (2015)
      Oxygen supply plays a central role in cancer cell proliferation. While vascular density increases at the early stages of carcinogenesis, mechanical solid stresses developed during growth compress tumor blood vessels and, ...

      Synergy between bacterial infection and genetic predisposition in intestinal dysplasia 

      Apidianakis, Yiorgos; Pitsouli, Chrysoula; Perrimon, N.; Rahme, L. (2009)
      Accumulating evidence suggests that hyperproliferating intestinal stem cells (SCs) and progenitors drive cancer initiation, maintenance, and metastasis. In addition, chronic inflammation and infection have been increasingly ...

      The treatment of cancer in Greek antiquity 

      Karpozilos, A.; Pavlidis, Nicholas (2004)
      Literary sources provide considerable information on the existence of various malignant tumours in the classical period. Based on a close reading of the ancient Greek medical treatises, this paper traces the history of the ...
