  • We determined the expression of components of the ECS in the human fetal testis from 6 to 17 developmental weeks and assessed the direct effects of phytocannabinoids Δ9-trans-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) and cannabidiol (CBD) on the testis morphology and cell functions ex vivo.

  • [ 5 ] These tumors are highly susceptible to radiotherapy. (medscape.com)
  • Ovarian dysfunction includes a "natural" decline in ovarian function caused by age factors and pathological ovarian function decline caused by pathogenic factors such as radiotherapy, chemotherapy and surgery. (biomedcentral.com)
  • Epithelial ovarian tumors are the most common tumor subtype. (amboss.com)
  • Large-cell lymphomas typically occur bilaterally. (medscape.com)
  • thus, tumors with a high cell turnover are most susceptible (certain leukemias and lymphomas, small proliferating tumors, "recruited" tumor cells, and micrometastases). (doctorlib.info)
  • A malignant neoplasm made up of epithelial cells tending to infiltrate the surrounding tissues and give rise to metastases. (lookformedical.com)
  • It ranges from a well-differentiated tumor with EPITHELIAL CELLS indistinguishable from normal HEPATOCYTES to a poorly differentiated neoplasm. (lookformedical.com)
  • A malignant neoplasm characterized by the formation of numerous, irregular, finger-like projections of fibrous stroma that is covered with a surface layer of neoplastic epithelial cells. (lookformedical.com)
  • Approximately two-thirds of ovarian tumors occur in women during reproductive age, whereas less than 5% occur in children. (biomedcentral.com)
  • It has been observed that PLO occurring in the reproductive age group is predominantly bilateral whereas those affecting the post menopausal age group are predominantly unilateral [7] . (ommegaonline.org)
