Abstract:
Chemotherapy, IFN, octreotide, and hepatic artery embolization can be useful for palliation, both of local symptoms and of the carcinoid syndrome, but they have little effect on tumor progression, MIBG therapy is still experimental but may have a future role. OLT should be considered as a palliative procedure in those patients with severe symptoms and no evidence of extrahepatic disease.

02:30Metastasis
Metastasis is the spread of cancer cells from the original site to distant locations in the body. Cancer cells can spread via blood vessels (hematogenous) as well as lymph vessels in the body.
Epithelial-to-Mesenchymal Transition
The epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition or EMT is a developmental process commonly observed in wound healing, embryogenesis, and cancer metastasis. EMT is induced by transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-β) or receptor tyrosine kinase (RTK) ligands, which further...
