Free radicals are crucial indicators for stress and appear in all kinds of pathogenic conditions, including cancer, cardiovascular diseases, and infection. However, they are difficult to detect due to their reactivity and low abundance. We use relaxometry ...
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the deadliest cancers worldwide. Despite extensive research in the field, new therapies targeting CRC are in urgent need. CRC is a highly heterogeneous disease with high levels of intra- and inter-patient heterogeneity. Ca ...
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the most common cancer worldwide. Chronic inflammation contributes to CRC development and progression. Emodin, is a natural anthraquinone derivative with anti-oxidant, anti-inflammatory, and anti-tumor activities. We used ...
High-risk human papillomavirus (HPV) encoding E6/E7-HPV oncogenes are responsible for a subgroup of head and neck squamous-cell carcinoma (HNSCC) and thus therapeutic E7-vaccines may be used to control HPV+HNSCC tumors. Herein we investigated the effects o ...
The tumor microenvironment encompasses an intertwined ensemble of both transformed cancer cells and non-transformed host cells, which together establish a signaling network that regulates tumor progression. By conveying both homo- and heterotypic cell-to-c ...
Metabolism is the process by which cells and organisms obtain nutrients and energy to perform their functions. In the last years, many human diseases, including cancer, diabetes, and cardiac diseases, have been associated with altered metabolism. Understan ...
The molecular targeted drug ATRA demands a suitable carrier that delivers to the cancer site due to its poor bioavailability and drug resistance. ATRA, being a lipid with carboxylic acid, has been nano-formulated as a cationic lipo-ATRA with DOTAP:choleste ...
The genomes of many human CRCs have been sequenced, revealing a large number of genetic alterations. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying the accumulation of these alterations are still being debated. In this study, we examined colorectal tumours ...
Telomeres protect chromosome ends from nucleolytic degradation, uncontrolled recombination by DNA repair enzymes and checkpoint signaling, and they provide mechanisms for their maintenance by semiconservative DNA replication, telomerase and homologous reco ...
To investigate the effect of different halogen substituents and leaving groups and the flexibility of ligands on the anticancer activity of copper complexes, sixteen copper(ii) complexes with eight different tridentate Schiff-base ligands containing pyridi ...
