Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Comprehensive Review on Skin Cancer Detection Strategies using Deep Neural NetworksAkepati Sankar Reddy, Gopinath M. PSkincancer is a deadly malignancy. Incomplete D.N.A. repair in skin cells causeshereditary mutations and cancer. Early skin cancer is easier to treat since itspreads slowly to other body areas. As a result, the optimal time to find it isduring its infancy. Because of the rising frequency of skin cancer, the highmortality rate, and the high cost of medical treatment, early … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 18, Issue 10 · 5 Oct 2022 · 6,400 accessesView PDFCite
Literature ReviewOpen accessIn the abstractOptimization of Extraction of Cannabinoids and Flavonoids Substances from Influence Cannabis sp. and their Biological Activities before and after DecarboxylationOlga Kronusová, Michala Piklová, Kristýna Šírová et al.Inflorescence of eight different varieties of Cannabis sp. (3 hemp varieties and 5 medical cannabis varieties) were subjected to extraction with n-hexane or ethanol as representatives of non-polar and polar solvents. Crude extracts were either used directly or after decarboxylation of cannabis acids for measurement of selected biological activities-cytotoxicity against carcinogenic line B16 (musculus skin melanoma cells), cytotoxicity against Human … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 19, Issue 1 · 26 May 2022 · 6,735 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNew and Efficient Features for Skin Lesion Classification based on SkeletonizationYoussef Filali, Hasnae El Khoukhi, My Abdelouahed Sabri et al.This paper presents a new approach to detect and classify skin lesions for melanoma diagnosis with high accuracy. Skin lesion detection is based on an image decomposition into two components using the Partial Differential Equation (PDE). The first component that sufficiently preserves the contour is thus exploited to have an adequate segmentation of image lesion while the second component provides … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 15, Issue 9 · 2 Sep 2019 · 8,028 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Action of Bovine Cartilage on Tumor Cells In Vitro And In VivoArax Tanelian, Alexander M. AbdelnoorIn an earlier study we had investigated the effect of Bovine Cartilage (BC) on mouse melanoma cells. In pursuant to this study BC anti-tumor activity in vitro against several human tumor cell lines was evaluated, mechanism by which BC induces tumor cell death was studied and its immunogenicity was assessed. Five mice received Intraperitoneal (IP) injection of BC once every … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 14, Issue 1 · 23 Jan 2018 · 9,664 accessesView PDFCite
EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractIs Rerum® the New Coley's Vaccine?Marco RuggieroColey's Vaccine and Cancer Immunotherapy Dr. William B. Coley is credited for having been the first to translate the observation of an association between bacterial infections, high fever and cancer remission into a successful cancer treatment. However, it is worth noting that such an association dates back to at least one century before Coley's times; as Wiemann and Starnes from … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 13, Issue 2 · 31 May 2017 · 12,281 accessesView PDFCite
EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractAre we Able to Harness the Immunomodulatory Power of Cytokines for Novel Autoimmune Disease Treatments?Giuseppe Nocentini, Graziella Migliorati, Carlo RiccardiSince the end of the 1970s, interleukin 2 (IL-2) has been known as a key player in T cell expansion/activation (Watson et al., 1980). In the late 1980s, some groups used IL-2 to stimulate the immune systems of tumour patients (Jacobs et al., 1986). The idea seemed brilliant and several attempts were made, but the results were disappointing (Lim et … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 10, Issue 2 · 22 Oct 2015 · 7,625 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPlant Pectin: A Potential Source for Cancer SuppressionSuryakant K. Niture, Lubna RefaiPectin is a branched polysaccharide present widely in a variety of fruits. It has been of high interest to cancer biologists due to its involvement in metal/carcinogen detoxification and its anti-carcinogenic properties. In particular, Citrus Pectin (CP) and Modified Citrus Pectin (MCP) have been shown to have a significant inhibitory role in cancer cell metastasis, invasion, angiogenesis and survival. The … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 18 Apr 2013 · 15,524 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIs Cancer Recurrence Postponed By a Treatment? A New Model AnswersRamalingam ShanmugamDuring a treatment period of a cancer patient, the medical team ponders over a question: Is patient’s cancer recurrence significantly postponed by the medication, even if the illness is not completely cured? This question could be answered with data evidence if the data are analyzed with an appropriate model and a suitable methodology. A scanning of the literature reveals that … …Current Research in Medicine, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 26 Mar 2013 · 6,887 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDermoscopic Image Segmentation using Machine Learning AlgorithmL. Padma Suresh, K.L. Shunmuganathan, S.H. Krishna VeniProblem statement: Malignant melanoma is the most frequent type of skin cancer. Its incidence has been rapidly increasing over the last few decades. Medical image segmentation is the most essential and crucial process in order to facilitate the characterization and visualization of the structure of interest in medical images. Approach: This study explains the task of segmenting skin lesions in … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 11 · 7 Oct 2011 · 7,342 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAnticancer Activity of Some New Synthesized Tetrahydroquinoline and Tetrahydrochromene Carbonitrile DerivativesUsama W. Hawas, Mohamed A. Al-Omar, Abd El-Galil E. Amr, Abu El-Ftouh G. HammamProblem statement: In continuation to our search for new heterocyclic chemistry based anticancer, the suggestion, synthesis, structure elucidation of some naphthalene, chromene and quinoline derivatives 3-7 were realized herein using 3-methylcyclohexanone 1 as a starting material. Approach: The antitumor activities of the newly synthesized compounds 4-7 were evaluated utilizing 60 different human tumor cell lines, representing leukemia, melanoma, lung, colon, … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 10 · 14 Sep 2011 · 7,484 accessesView PDFCite
