The Oncologist, 1996 Abstract Chemotherapy fails to cure most cancer patients with advanced disease, particularly patients with the most common forms of solid tumors. The presence or development of resistance to anticancer agents is the major cause of this failure.

Drugging Drug Resistance [PDF]
Cell, 2010 Resistance to anticancer drugs is widely observed in vitro and in cancer patients, but its prevalence is too high to be solely explained by the acquisition of mutations. Sharma et al. (2010) now report that dynamic chromatin modifications may be an independent route to drug resistance in cancer cells that can be reversed by epigenetic drugs.

Drug Repurposing Opportunities in Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma
Pharmaceuticals, 2021 Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is considered one of the deadliest tumors worldwide. The diagnosis is often possible only in the latter stages of the disease, with patients already presenting an advanced or metastatic tumor. It is also one of the

Genomic introgression mapping of field-derived multiple-anthelmintic resistance in Teladorsagia circumcincta [PDF]
, 2017 Preventive chemotherapy has long been practiced against nematode parasites of livestock, leading to widespread drug resistance, and is increasingly being adopted for eradication of human parasitic nematodes even though it is similarly likely to lead to ...

Drug resistant tuberculosis [PDF]
BMJ, 1995 EDITOR,—Concern is growing over the spread of drug resistant Mycobacterium tuberculosis. New evidence suggests that this spread may be increasing in certain sections of the British population. The recent advances in molecular techniques have equipped us with the means to make substantial inroads into the possible impact of drug resistant tuberculosis.1

Customizing the therapeutic response of signaling networks to promote antitumor responses by drug combinations [PDF]
, 2014 Drug resistance, de novo and acquired, pervades cellular signaling networks (SNs) from one signaling motif to another as a result of cancer progression and/or drug intervention.

Genetic and genomic approaches for the discovery of parasite genes involved in antimalarial drug resistance [PDF]
, 2013 The biggest threat to the war on malaria is the continued evolution of drug resistance by the parasite. Resistance to almost all currently available antimalarials now exists in Plasmodium falciparum which causes the most suffering among all human malaria

Survival outcomes of autologous breast reconstruction after mastectomy: A matched case-control study
Frontiers in Oncology, 2023 BackgroundDue to the lack of strong evidence-based medical evidence, the relationship between autologous breast reconstruction (ABR) after mastectomy and long-term prognosis is unclear.
