Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDrug-Protein Interactions for Clinical Research by Nucleic Acid Programmable Protein Arrays-Quartz Crystal Microbalance with Dissipation Factor Monitoring Nanoconductometric AssayClaudio Nicolini, Rosanna Spera, Nicola Luigi Bragazzi, Eugenia PechkovaConductometric monitoring of drug-gene and drug-protein interactions is of fundamental importance in the field of molecular pharmacology. Here, we present our main findings and characterizations of an important antiblastic used in neuro-oncology (Temozolomide), interacting with selected proteins that represent predictive biomarkers of the rate survival of the patients, of the outcome of chemotherapy and resistance to drug itself (namely, BRIP1 … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 10, Issue 3 · 17 Nov 2014 · 8,506 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractImmunofluorometrical Exploring of Cortisol Hormone Levels in the Serum of Patients with Histologically Verified Microcellular Lung CancerIvan MilosevicIt is already known in the science that the cells of microcellular lung cancer can produce ACTH. By following the levels of Cortisol as one consequence of ACTH producing, in the serum of microcellular lung cancer patients, we could make some statistical conclusions how significant these levels would be in eventual future early diagnostic procedures, besides already existing tumormarkers etc. … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2005 · 7,177 accessesView PDF Cite
