EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractAre we Able to Harness the Immunomodulatory Power of Cytokines for Novel Autoimmune Disease Treatments?Giuseppe Nocentini, Graziella Migliorati, Carlo RiccardiSince the end of the 1970s, interleukin 2 (IL-2) has been known as a key player in T cell expansion/activation (Watson et al., 1980). In the late 1980s, some groups used IL-2 to stimulate the immune systems of tumour patients (Jacobs et al., 1986). The idea seemed brilliant and several attempts were made, but the results were disappointing (Lim et … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 10, Issue 2 · 22 Oct 2015 · 7,629 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 · 8,041 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractImmunological Processes in Cancer: A Link Between Inflammation and ImmunityVanessa Jacob Victorino, Isabela Casagrande Jeremias, Anne Karine Martins AssunçãoCancer is a worldwide issue and one of the most relevant death causes in child and adults. There are several causes that can lead to cancer development. It is well known that inflammation is one known hallmark of cancer and it favors tumor cells growth. Several alterations in immunological and inflammatory processes are caused in response to tumor presence and … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 10, Issue 4 · 17 Jan 2015 · 7,075 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Participation of Oxidative Stress in Breast Cancer Cells Progression and Treatment ResistancePoliana Camila Marinello, Kaliana Larissa Machado, Rubens Cecchini, Alessandra Lourenço CecchiniThis article presents a general discussion about the participation of oxidative stress in relevant points related to breast cancer progression in vitro. All of the evidences presented here are based on published papers that used breast cancer cells with different phenotype characteristics in their research. We observed that oxidative stress could modulate by several manners the tumor progression and these … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 10, Issue 4 · 17 Jan 2015 · 7,512 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractWavelet Statistical Texture Features with Orthogonal Operators Tumour Classification in Magnetic Resonance Imaging BrainR. Meenakshi, P. AnandhakumarTumors medically also called neoplasms are an abnormal mass of tissue resulting from uncontrolled proliferation or division of cells occurring in the human body. If such growth is located in the brain then it is called as brain tumor. Identification of such tumors is a major challenge in the field of medical science. Early identification of tumors prove to be … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 10 · 5 Sep 2013 · 6,604 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMicrornas as Double Edged Sword in CancerBaby Joseph, Vrundha M. NairCancer is the leading causes of death world wide. Basically it can be defined as the disease of the cell. One among the mechanism of transfer of a normal cell to cancerous is the alteration in the genetic material DNA. Treatment for cancer remains as a biggest challenge. Here comes the importance of miRNAs. They are endogenous RNA which regulates … …Current Research in Bioinformatics, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 24 May 2013 · 6,959 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMelanoma-Associated Suppression of the Dendritic Cell Lines DC2.4 and JawsiiKristian Michael Hargadon, Yonathan Tarekegne Ararso, Osric Anthony Forrest, Chad Mason HarteDendritic cells function as potent regulators of both innate and adaptive immunity to tumors and the regulatory activities of these cells are tightly linked to their maturation and activation status. Despite the critical role played by dendritic cells in the induction of anti-tumor immune responses, the number of dendritic cells that can be isolated from experimental animals is limiting and … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 8, Issue 4 · 3 Nov 2012 · 9,567 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 · 7,690 accessesView PDFCite
