Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleCLINICAL EXPERIENCE OF CANCER IMMUNOTHERAPY INTEGRATED WITH OLEIC ACID COMPLEXED WITH DE-GLYCOSYLATED VITAMIN D BINDING PROTEINEmma Ward, Rodney Smith, Jacopo J.V. Branca et al.Proteins highly represented in milk such as α-lactalbumin and lactoferrin bind Oleic Acid (OA) to form complexes with selective anti-tumor activity. A protein present in milk, colostrum and blood, vitamin D binding protein is the precursor of a potent Macrophage Activating Factor (GcMAF) and in analogy with other OA-protein complexes, we proposed that OA-GcMAF could demonstrate a greater immunotherapeutic activity … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 10, Issue 1 · 8 Mar 2014 · 13,193 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleRole of Angiotensin-Converting Enzyme and Vitamin D Receptor Gene Polymorphisms in Cancer Anorexia-Cachexia SyndromeAriele Fabris, Paolo Biagioni, Tiziana Punzi et al.The ubiquitin-proteasome pathway is a crucial connection between aberrant immune system activation, systemic inflammation and Cancer Anorexia-Cachexia Syndrome (CACS), a syndrome that culminates in hyper-activation of the ubiquitin-proteasome pathway. Angiotensin directly up-regulates this pathway, while vitamin D down-regulates it indirectly through the insulin-like growth factor-1 pathway.
