Emergence of Anti-Cancer Drug Resistance: Exploring the Importance of the Microenvironmental Niche via a Spatial Model

open access: yes, 2014
Practically, all chemotherapeutic agents lead to drug resistance. Clinically, it is a challenge to determine whether resistance arises prior to, or as a result of, cancer therapy.

On the Way to More Convenient Description of Drug-Plasma Protein Binding [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2012
The theoretical case is considered where the total amount of plasma protein is conserved, but the drug is eliminated after its single application. After a single drug application at time t = 0, the total drug concentration is measured at times ti,...,tk and the total drug concentration at time ti is denoted by {\phi}i.

Surfaceome: a new era in the discovery of immune evasion mechanisms of circulating tumor cells

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
In the era of immunotherapies, many patients either do not respond or eventually develop resistance. We propose to pave the way for proteomic analysis of surface‐expressed proteins called surfaceome, of circulating tumor cells. This approach seeks to identify immune evasion mechanisms and discover potential therapeutic targets. Circulating tumor cells (

Global Overview of Drug Demand and Supply: Latest Trends, Cross-cutting Issues [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
An estimated quarter of a billion people, or around 5 per cent of the global adult population, used drugs at least once in 2015. Even more worrisome is the fact that about 29.5 million of those drug users, or 0.6 per cent of the global adult population ...

Recent updates on incubation of drug craving: a mini-review [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Cue-induced drug craving progressively increases after prolonged withdrawal from drug self-administration in laboratory animals, a behavioral phenomenon termed 'incubation of drug craving.' Studies over the years have revealed several important neural ...

Graph-augmented Convolutional Networks on Drug-Drug Interactions Prediction [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
We propose an end-to-end model to predict drug-drug interactions (DDIs) by employing graph-augmented convolutional networks. And this is implemented by combining graph CNN with an attentive pooling network to extract structural relations between drug pairs and make DDI predictions. The experiment results suggest a desirable performance achieving ROC at

Clinical applications of next‐generation sequencing‐based ctDNA analyses in breast cancer: defining treatment targets and dynamic changes during disease progression

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) offers a possibility for different applications in early and late stage breast cancer management. In early breast cancer tumor informed approaches are increasingly used for detecting molecular residual disease (MRD) and early recurrence. In advanced stage, ctDNA provides a possibility for monitoring disease progression and

Legal Drugs Are Good Drugs And Illegal Drugs Are Bad Drugs

open access: yesNurse Media: Journal of Nursing, 2011
ABSTRACT : Labelling drugs are important issue nowadays in a modern society. Although it is generally believed that legal drugs are good drugs and illegal drugs are bad drugs, it is evident that some people do not aware about the side effects of drugs used.

Circulating tumor cells: advancing personalized therapy in small cell lung cancer patients

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Small cell lung cancer (SCLC) is an aggressive form of lung cancer that spreads rapidly to secondary sites such as the brain and liver. Cancer cells circulating in the blood, “circulating tumor cells” (CTCs), have demonstrated prognostic value in SCLC, and evaluating biomarkers on CTCs could guide treatment decisions such as for PARP inhibitors ...

Diffusive Mobile MC for Controlled-Release Drug Delivery with Absorbing Receiver [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2018
Nanoparticle drug carriers play an important role in facilitating efficient targeted drug delivery, i.e., improving treatment success and reducing drug costs and side effects. However, the mobility of nanoparticle drug carriers poses a challenge in designing drug delivery systems.
