English term
Concentrate (by cancer cells)
English to Italian

Medical (general)
Hello,
I am going through a clinical study.
I would like to know how to translate 'concentrate' here, as in 'artemisinin could be selectively picked up and concentrated by cancer cells'.
I wonder if it means 'isolated' or if the preposition 'by' may be wrong.
Thank you!

concentrate/i (tramite/per mezzo di cellule cancerogene/tumorali)
I recettori CD40 sono normalmente dispersi sulla superficie delle cellule immunitarie in riposo, ma devono essere concentrati e raggruppati in complessi altamente organizzati al fine di innescare una risposta immunitaria contro il cancro.

Concentrated
This excerpt could clarify it: "Cancer cells express a large concentration of cell surface transferrin receptors that facilitate uptake of the plasma iron-carrying protein transferrin via endocytosis. By covalently tagging artemisinin to transferrin, artemisinin could be selectively picked up and concentrated by cancer cells." I think that the meaning of 'concentrated', in this context could be the following: "to accumulate (a toxic substance) in bodily tissues
Fish concentrate mercury." (as per Merriam-Webster).

Note from asker:
| Salve Fausto, il concetto isolatamente sembrerebbe corretto, ma nel contesto non lo capisco. "E' stato possibile incrementare selettivamente il livello di artemisinina e... accumulata dalle cellule cancerogene"? Ho sbaglio io (possibile, non è il mio campo), oppure c'è un errore nel testo. Grazie. |
