Targeting the tumor microenvironment in colorectal peritoneal metastases
Peritoneal metastasis (PM) occurs in approximately one in four colorectal cancer (CRC) patients. The pathophysiology of colorectal PM remains poorly characterized. Also, the efficacy of current treatment modalities, including surgery and intraperitoneal (

Afatinib use in recurrent epithelial ovarian carcinoma. [PDF]
•Genomic tumor testing is an important tool in guiding treatment for gynecologic malignancies.•Targetable mutations may lead to new therapies in gynecologic cancer treatment.•Her2/neu mutations in serous ovarian carcinomas can be targeted with ERBB2 ...

Correlation of the differential expression of PIK3R1 and its spliced variant, p55α, in pan‐cancer
PIK3R1 undergoes alternative splicing to generate the isoforms, p85α and p55α. By combining large patient datasets with laboratory experiments, we show that PIK3R1 spliced variants shape cancer behavior. While tumors lose the protective p85α isoform, p55α is overexpressed, changes linked to poorer survival and more pronounced in African American ...

Inducers of epithelial mesenchymal transition and cancer stem cells in malignant pleural effusions [PDF]
The Epithelial to Mesenchymal Transition (EMT) plays a role not only in tumor metastasis but also in tumor recurrence. This process is believed to be tightly linked to the presence of Cancer Stem Cells (CSCs) however, it is still not clear which ...

Tumour–host interactions in Drosophila: mechanisms in the tumour micro‐ and macroenvironment
This review examines how tumour–host crosstalk takes place at multiple levels of biological organisation, from local cell competition and immune crosstalk to organism‐wide metabolic and physiological collapse. Here, we integrate findings from Drosophila melanogaster studies that reveal conserved mechanisms through which tumours hijack host systems to ...

Background The prognosis of advanced ovarian cancer is often poor. Although there are several treatment options for stage IV epithelial ovarian cancer, it is not clear which treatment will benefit the patient’s prognosis.We conducted an analysis using ...

Focus on epithelial ovarian cancer [PDF]
Epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) will be diagnosed in 24,400women in the United States in 2004, with an estimated 14,300deaths (Jemal et al., 2003).Neoplasms from the surface epithe-lium of the ovary exhibit a variety of Mullerian-type cells, includ-ing serous, mucinous, endometrioid, and clear cell, reflecting acommon pathway in embryological ...

Aldehyde dehydrogenase 1A1 (ALDH1A1) is a cancer stem cell marker in several malignancies. We established a novel epithelial cell line from rectal adenocarcinoma with unique overexpression of this enzyme. Genetic attenuation of ALDH1A1 led to increased invasive capacity and metastatic potential, the inhibition of proliferation activity, and ultimately ...
