Cancer represents one of the major public health challenges worldwide, representing more than 25% of all deaths in the European Union in 2014. It affects a large and growing part of the general population, with the National Cancer Institute (NCI) estimatin ...
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 ...
SIRT5 is a member of the sirtuin family of NAD(+)-dependent protein lysine deacylases implicated in a variety of physiological processes. SIRT5 removes negatively charged malonyl, succinyl, and glutaryl groups from lysine residues and thereby regulates mul ...
Anti-cancer therapies often exhibit only short-term effects. Tumors typically develop drug resistance causing relapses that might be tackled with drug combinations. Identification of the right combination is challenging and would benefit from high-content, ...
Colony-stimulating factor 1 receptor (CSF1R) blockade abates tumor-associated macrophage (TAM) infiltrates and provides marked clinical benefits in diffuse-type tenosynovial giant cell tumors. However, facial edema is a common adverse event associated with ...
Organotypic models of patient-specific tumours are revolutionizing our understanding of cancer heterogeneity and its implications for personalized medicine. These advancements are, in part, attributed to the ability of organoid models to stably preserve ge ...
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 ...
Cancer is a leading cause of death in the world, and the mechanisms that underlie this disease are still not completely understood. As cancer develops and progresses, cells undergo a diversity of mutations that sustain their rapid proliferation and the eva ...
Inhibition of the eIF4A RNA helicase with silvestrol and related compounds is emerging as a powerful anti-cancer strategy. We find that a synthetic silvestrol analogue (CR-1-31 B) has nanomolar activity across many cancer cell lines. It is especially activ ...
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 ...
