Chemical compound and disease context of Sarcoma, Synovial

  • Synovial sarcomas were responsive to ifosfamide plus doxorubicin, especially among patients younger than 40 years of age [10].
  • Our results indicate that this molecular assay can be applied to archival formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded tumor tissues as a feasible and reliable molecular technique for the diagnosis of synovial sarcoma [11].
  • For alkaline phosphatase and adenosine triphosphatase particularly, positive cells and negative cells coexisted, as in the large plump cells of synovial sarcoma [12].
  • Analysis of two contigs, C1- and C4, using FISH established that in four of six synovial sarcomas examined the breakpoint occurs between these two contigs: C1 lies distal to the break-point while C4 is proximal [13].
  • We also found a loss of imprinting (LOI) for Igf2 in a limited number of primary synovial sarcomas despite demethylation of CpG dinucleotides critical for maintaining imprinting [14].
  • Ifosfamide-based chemotherapy was associated with an improved DSS in adult patients with high-risk, primary, extremity, synovial sarcoma and should be considered in the treatment of such patients [15].
