Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAssociation Between Cancer Screening Results Using Single Nucleotide Polymorphism and Cancer Incidence Rate in Korean WomenKyung Bae Lee, Jae Kyung KimIn this study, we investigated the usefulness of Single Nucleotide Polymorphism (SNP) testing in assessing cancer susceptibility in women by evaluating correlations between SNP testing results and cancer incidence rates. SNP testing was conducted on blood samples of women who underwent health examinations commissioned by medical institutions in the Republic of Korea in 2017 using real-time polymerase chain reaction with … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 19, Issue 3 · 25 Sep 2023 · 4,956 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEarly Responses of Neural Cells (U87) to Particulate Matter Exposure: Cell Viability and Cytokine ConcentrationJae-Sik Jeon, Eun Ju Oh, Qian-Wen Wang, Jae Kyung KimParticulate Matter (PM) has a significant impact on human health and increases the risk of respiratory diseases. PM exposure is linked to various illnesses, including cardiovascular diseases, cancer, neurological diseases, and pregnancy complications, and contributes to both mortality and morbidity globally. PM can also influence the autonomic nervous system. The evidence suggests that the likelihood of developing lung cancer continually … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 19, Issue 1 · 20 Feb 2023 · 5,450 accessesView PDFCite
EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractAn Immunological Argument for One HealthMark Brown et al.Human exposure to heavy metals is associated with higher rates of immunological deficiencies, autoimmunity, and cancer. Chronic exposure to lead contributes to abnormalities in immunomodulation while cadmium is linked to breast, prostate, and lung cancers. Prenatal exposure to these metals impacts both the development and function of immune cells. The concept of one health underscores the importance of the interface … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 18, Issue 1 · 3 Feb 2023 · 9,822 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDifferential Expression of Cellular and Exosomal MicroRNA Isolated from Oral Cancer Cells and their Resistance to ChemotherapyBrady Petersen, Carl Yu, Samuel Hutchings et al.MicroRNAs are abundant small non-coding RNA with a variety of known functions, including transcriptional activation and inhibition. Recent evidence has suggested that microRNA expression may influence the responsiveness of some cancers to chemotherapy, including liver and lung cancers. Some evidence has now suggested that specific microRNAs, such as miR-21, miR-155, and miR-375, may influence oral cancer responsiveness to chemotherapy – … …Current Research in Dentistry, Vol. 13, Issue 1 · 29 Jul 2022 · 5,902 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEvaluation of Classification Models for Predicting Mortality Rate Using Thyroid Cancer DataNorah Saleh AlghamdiMachine Learning (ML) can potentially enhance predictions in real-life domains. This study presents an evaluation and comparison of different ML methods which can be applied on thyroid cancer dataset, called Prostate, Lung, Colorectal and Ovarian (PLCO), of approximately 155,000 participants with thyroid cancer occurrence and mortality incidence. The ML models are explored for predicting mortality rates of patients with thyroid … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 15, Issue 1 · 21 Jan 2019 · 7,788 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
