Surgical Treatment of Phyllodes Tumor of the Breast with the Trend
Conclusion Wide excision with a clear margin is the first choice of current treatment for phyllodes tumors, even for malignant phyllodes tumors. However, this strategy does not further reduce local recurrence effectively, and core needle biopsy cannot be overstated in avoiding inappropriate initial surgery.

Endomorphin-1 and Endomorphin-2: Involvement of Endogenous μ-Opioid Receptor Ligands in Analgesia, Antinociceptive Tolerance, Antianalgesia, and Hyperalgesia
Publication date: October 2014 Source:Journal of Experimental & Clinical Medicine, Volume 6, Issue 5 Author(s): Leon F. Tseng Endomorphin-1 (EM-1) and endomorphin-2 (EM-2) are endogenous ligands for μ-opioid receptors. Both EM-1 and EM-2, given supraspinally or spinally, produce potent antinociception (analgesia) in mice and rats, measured by the thermal tail-flick response. The antinociception produced by either EM-1 or EM-2 is mediated by the stimulation of μ-opioid receptors, but not by δ- or κ-opioid receptors. EM-1 or EM-2 given supraspinally stimulates primarily μ-opioid receptors and subsequently r...
