Literature ReviewOpen accessIn the abstractThe Practical Consideration of Poliovirus as an Oncolytic VirotherapyElizabeth Denniston, Hannah Crewdson, Nicole Rucinsky et al.The inauguration of novel treatment strategies into the clinical setting faces a number of hurdles. In addition to treatment efficacy and safety, acceptance by doctors and patients is paramount to the success of novel therapies. Although viruses are the cause of numerous infectious diseases, these acellular entities have been harnessed over the years to benefit mankind. Recently, a recombinant Poliovirus-Rhinovirus … …Current Research in Virology, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 3 Mar 2016 · 27,150 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHypermethylation and Hypomethylation of DNA: Implication for Diagnosis and Prognosis of Prostate CancerLubos Danisovic, Stanislav ZiaranProstate cancer belongs to the most common cancers and it is the second leading cause of cancer death in men. A genetic predisposition with epigenetic changes in DNA contributes to the development of the disease. DNA hypermethylation and hypomethylation belong to the most studied epigenetic changes in prostate cancer development. Both forms may lead to chromosomal instability and transcriptional gene … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 15, Issue 2 · 13 Jun 2015 · 6,528 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractVascular Endothelial Growth Factor: An Overview Across Multiple Disease ConditionsMiriam CanaveseVascular Endothelial Growth Factor (VEGF) is the major player in the regulation of physiological angiogenesis as well as it has also been implicated in pathological angiogenesis, associated with cancers and other conditions, among which psoriasis, autoimmune diseases and visual loss in macular degeneration. Interestingly, three regulatory Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms (rSNPs) in the promoter region of VEGF-A gene have been significantly … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 10, Issue 1 · 6 May 2015 · 7,099 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRedox Modifications and Hematological Neoplasms-an OverviewFernanda Carolina de CamposDue to our current interest in the study of the relationship between hematological malignancies and oxidative stress, in this review we addressed the recent finding regarding this issue, focusing on the clinical findings concerning the oxidative status of patients diagnosed with hematological cancers. This study is a descriptive review of the literature. For the theoretical scientific background, we used the … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 10, Issue 4 · 17 Jan 2015 · 6,975 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCrosstalk between Oxidative Stress Signaling and HER2 Pathway in Breast CancerVanessa Jacob Victorino, Adriano Martin Felis Aranome, Fernanda Carolina de Campos et al.About 20% of breast cancer patients overexpress the Human Epidermal growth factor Receptor-2 (HER2), also known as ErbB2. HER2-overexpression is associated with enhanced tumor malignancy and its overexpression is related to specific target therapy against breast tumors and other cancers. HER2-mediated pathways in tumor cells act on behalf of the tumor conferring aggressive characteristics. Several reports demonstrated the occurrence of … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 10, Issue 4 · 17 Jan 2015 · 8,038 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCLINICAL 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 · 13,186 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
