1.	Neoplasms (Cancer) 06/01/2004 - "These radiolabeled microspheres are very stable and have a proven efficacy in the field of primary as well as metastatic cancers" 05/01/1998 - "Microsphere injection caused a marked decrease of tumor blood flow and pH. During heating, there was a marked increase of the maximum temperature in tumor tissue compared with normal muscle" 10/01/1992 - "Whereas the growth inhibitory effect was insufficient, in order to potentiate anti-tumor activity, higher CDDP contents and sustained release of CDDP at a high level from microsphere and so on should be essentially improved for the near future" 09/01/1979 - "Established cancer in the liver can, in selected patients who have a good arterial circulation in these tumors, be effectively treated by intrahepatic artery radioactive yttrium-90 resin microspheres" 07/01/2000 - "CONCLUSIONS: Together, these data: (1) demonstrate that sustained delivery of chemotherapy in or near the tumor site is superior to equipotent bolus doses in inoperable tumors, (2) demonstrate that injection of sustained release microspheres into the tissue surrounding a growing tumor may provide superior effects over injections directly into the tumor mass, and (3) suggest that this approach may provide a useful means of selectively delivering chemotherapeutics to tumors or portions of tumors that cannot otherwise be treated with conventional surgical approaches."

2.	Infection 01/01/1991 - "Mares classified as potentially susceptible to chronic uterine infections demonstrated a significant delay in physical clearance of microspheres from the uterus compared to the resistant mares (P less than 0.0001)" 10/01/2006 - "Whereas previous studies performed here have relied on blood smear/light microscopy (LM) for diagnosing Plasmodium species infections, we introduce a newly developed, post-polymerase chain reaction (PCR), semi-quantitative, ligase detection reaction-fluorescent microsphere assay (LDR-FMA)" 01/01/2004 - "Some of the studies strictly involve the development and evaluation of microspheres for use in antimycobacterial drug delivery, whereas others actually use drug-loaded microspheres to treat mycobacterial infections in cell lines and small animals" 02/01/2003 - "In the current study, we used light and electron microscopies to study the immune response of Aedes aegypti hemocytes to bacterial inoculations, Plasmodium gallinaceum natural infections, and latex bead injections" 08/01/2008 - "falciparum infection was detected in 25% of patients by microscopy, 37% by nested PCR, 41% by merozoite surface protein-2 (MSP-2) PCR, and 45% by a ligase detection reaction-fluorescent microsphere assay (LDR-FMA)" Get all the results and reference details, order at left...
3.	Ischemia 10/01/1980 - "Thus, this autoradiographic method using 99mTc-labeled human albumin microspheres is useful in delineating the area of ischemia after coronary artery occlusion and in evaluating the efficacy of pharmacologic agents designed to protect ischemic myocardium" 06/01/1993 - "We produced an improved microembolism model of cerebral focal ischemia by injection of 1000-2000 microspheres (50 +/- 5 microns diameter) via a tube retrogradely inserted into the right external carotid artery in freely moving rats" 03/22/2005 - "Similarly, TG mice were more resistant to the inhibitory effect of ADMA on angioadaptation (angiogenesis and arteriogenesis) after hindlimb ischemia, as assessed by fluorescent microsphere studies and postmortem microangiograms" 10/01/1999 - "Reperfusion pattern of the immature femoral head after critical ischemia: a microsphere study in pigs." 07/01/1999 - "The correlation between the CT and the microsphere measurements was good for both normal and ischemia studies (r > 0.78, slope > 0.9)" Get all the results and reference details, order at left...
4.	Adhesions 01/01/2003 - "There were no significant differences in the adhesion ability of microspheres (MS) coated with these rFimAs to HGF; however, the adhesion of type II rFimA-MS to HEp-2 cells was significantly greater than that of other rFimA types" 03/01/1999 - "Here, we describe and discuss a detailed and improved protocol of the microsphere-adhesion assay." 03/01/1999 - "Improved protocol for a microsphere-adhesion assay on living tissue slices." 01/01/2005 - "The flow chamber is a versatile tool for examining adhesive interactions, as it can be used to study a variety of adhesive substrates, ranging from monolayers of primary cells to isolated adhesion molecules, and a variety of adhesive particles, ranging from leukocytes in whole blood to antibody-coated Latex beads" 03/01/1999 - "Here, we describe a simple microsphere-adhesion assay to characterize adhesive cues on living tissue slices, which we use to study pattern formation in neural tissue" Get all the results and reference details, order at left...
5.	Neoplasm Metastasis (Metastasis) 04/01/2007 - "This case illustrates the utility of FDG PET in the assessment of the therapeutic efficacy of 90Y microspheres in colorectal hepatic metastases." 12/01/2005 - "PURPOSE: The purpose of this phase II study was to determine the safety and efficacy of TheraSphere treatment (90Y microspheres) in patients with liver-dominant colorectal metastases in whom standard therapies had failed or were judged to be inappropriate" 06/01/2001 - "Studies on selective internal radiation therapy of colorectal liver metastases using yttrium-90 glass microspheres have shown encouraging results" 01/01/1991 - "The aim of this study was to evaluate the biological degradation of albumin microspheres in the liver of patients with colorectal liver metastases" 11/21/2008 - "Multimodality imaging can predict the metabolic response of unresectable colorectal liver metastases to radioembolization therapy with Yttrium-90 labeled resin microspheres."
