Chemical carcinogenesis [PDF]

Anais da Academia Brasileira de Ciências, 2007
The use of chemical compounds benefits society in a number of ways. Pesticides, for instance, enable foodstuffs to be produced in sufficient quantities to satisfy the needs of millions of people, a condition that has led to an increase in levels of life expectancy.

Carcinogenesis of PIK3CA [PDF]

Hereditary Cancer in Clinical Practice, 2013
Abstract PIK3CA is the most frequently mutated oncogene in human cancers. PIK3CA is phosphatidylinositol-4,5-bisphosphate 3-kinase, catalytic subunit alpha. It controls cell growth, proliferation, motility, survival, differentiation and intracellular trafficking.

M2-polarized tumor-associated macrophages facilitated migration and epithelial-mesenchymal transition of HCC cells via the TLR4/STAT3 signaling pathway

World Journal of Surgical Oncology, 2018
Background M2-polarized macrophages are tumor-associated-macrophages (TAMs), which are important contents of tumor-infiltrating immune cells. Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) is a molecular biomarker of tumor aggressiveness and poor prognosis.

P85

EJC Supplements, 2015
Glucocorticoids (GCs) are the most important component of therapy for a number of diseases including combined chemotherapy of hematological malignancies. However, their application is strongly restricted by the development of serious side effects as well

Diet and carcinogenesis [PDF]

Carcinogenesis, 1993
In summary there is a wealth of information on dietary and nutritional effects on carcinogenesis in laboratory rodents. Experimental studies based on epidemiological evidence, earlier experimental studies and known or predicted cellular, biochemical and molecular effects of nutrients have produced clear evidence that carcinogenesis in laboratory ...

X or Y Cancer: An Extensive Analysis of Sex Differences in Lung Adenocarcinoma

Current Oncology, 2023
Background: Cellular metabolism is a tightly controlled process during which cell growth and survival are maintained. Lung cancer is a disease with clear sex differences, where female patients have better survival rates than males.

Ropivacaine promotes apoptosis of hepatocellular carcinoma cells through damaging mitochondria and activating caspase-3 activity

Biological Research, 2019
Background Recent evidences indicated that some local anaesthetic agents played a role in inhibiting the proliferation of cancer cells; Whether ropivacaine is able to promote apoptosis of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) cells is still unclear.

A kinome-centered CRISPR-Cas9 screen identifies activated BRAF to modulate enzalutamide resistance with potential therapeutic implications in BRAF-mutated prostate cancer

Scientific Reports, 2021
Resistance to drugs targeting the androgen receptor (AR) signaling axis remains an important challenge in the treatment of prostate cancer patients. Activation of alternative growth pathways is one mechanism used by cancer cells to proliferate despite ...

MicroRNA-141 suppresses prostate cancer stem cells and metastasis by targeting a cohort of pro-metastasis genes

Nature Communications, 2017
MicroRNAs have important roles in regulating tumor development, progression and metastasis. Here, the authors demonstrate the tumor-suppressive functions of miRNA141 in prostate cancer stem cells mediated by directly targeting CD44, Rho GTPase protein ...
