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 abstractThe Cell to Cell Interaction of Breast Cancer Cells Regulates Cancer Invasion Via ADAM15Daichi Ota, Masahiro Ikesue, Yutaka Matsui et al.Increasing evidence suggests that a disintegrin and metalloproteinase 15 (ADAM15) have essential roles in the process of cancer metastasis via degradation of the extracellular matrix and binding to integrins. Among them, ADAM15 possesses an Arg-Gly-Asp (RGD) sequence within its disintegrin domain (d.d., hereafter) and binds to RGD recognizing-integrins such as αvβ3 and α5β1 and also interacts with integrin α9β1 in … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 8, Issue 4 · 17 Oct 2012 · 7,685 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMicrornas are Not That Small to IgnoreSanjeev Kumar Srivastava, Sonal Somvanshi, Vivek Pratap SinghMicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small, noncoding RNA molecule that negatively regulates gene expression by causing either degradation or translational inhibition of their target mRNAs. These miRNAs are key regulators of various biological processes such as differentiation, maturation and maintenance of immune homeostasis. Furthermore, deregulated expression of miRNA has now been shown to regulate several disease processes by regulating tumorigenesis, angiogenesis, apoptosis … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 8, Issue 2 · 22 Jun 2012 · 8,456 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPatterns of Resection among Patients with Hepatic-Only Metastatic Colorectal Cancer a Single Institution Experience and ReviewK.I. Quintyne, N. O’Leary, O. O’Kelly et al.Problem statement: Hepatic-only metastasis in colorectal cancer is not a rare clinical finding and can account for 30% of cases. However, only 10-25% of cases are suitable for hepatic resection as part of their treatment pathway. We sought to document our own findings by reviewing patients with hepatic-only disease. Approach: A retrospective analysis was designed to include all patients seen … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 5 Apr 2012 · 7,196 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFocal Adhesion Kinase: An Old Protein with New RolesAtul Kumar Pandey, Sonal Somvanshi, Vivek Pratap SinghFocal adhesion kinase, FAK is a tyrosine kinase which is prominently localized to focal adhesions and therefore its name, is an indispensable protein in integrin signaling. Since the discovery of FAK, this tyrosine kinase had been shown to regulate a variety of cell behavior like cell migration, proliferation, apoptosis and metastasis which makes this molecule at a centre stage of … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 1 · 13 Mar 2012 · 8,439 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCross Validation Evaluation for Breast Cancer Prediction Using Multilayer Perceptron Neural NetworksShirin A. Mojarad, Satnam S. Dlay, Wai L. Woo, Gajanan V. SherbetProblem statement: The presence of metastasis in the regional lymph nodes is the most important factor in predicting prognosis in breast cancer. Many biomarkers have been identified that appear to relate to the aggressive behaviour of cancer. However, the nonlinear relation of these markers to nodal status and also the existence of complex interaction between markers have prohibited an accurate … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 4 · 20 Feb 2012 · 7,699 accessesView PDFCite
