Induction of cancer cell stemness by chemotherapy [PDF]

Cell Cycle, 2012
Recent studies indicate that cancer stem cells (CSCs) exist in most hematological and solid tumors. CSCs are characterized by their ability to self-renew and their capacity to differentiate into the multitude of cells that comprise the tumor mass. Moreover, these cells have been shown to be intrinsically resistant to conventional anticancer therapies ...

Irreversible electroporation versus radiotherapy after induction chemotherapy on survival in patients with locally advanced pancreatic cancer: a propensity score analysis

BMC Cancer, 2019
Background Locally advanced pancreatic cancer (LAPC) represents more than one third of pancreatic cancers and owns poor survival after the standard chemotherapy. Irreversible electroporation (IRE) is a novel method and has been recently used in LAPC. The

Predictive factors of toxicity of TPF induction chemotherapy for locally advanced head and neck cancers

BMC Cancer, 2021
Background The rate of toxic deaths related to induction chemotherapy in the treatment of locally advanced head and neck cancers is unacceptable and calls into question this therapeutic strategy, which is however highly effective in terms of rate and ...

Chemotherapy: induction of stress responses

Endocrine-Related Cancer, 2006
Eukaryotic cells, from yeast to mammals, respond and adapt to environmental and microenvironmental stressors by evolutionary conserved multicomponent endogenous systems that utilise a network of signal transduction pathways to regulate the adaptive and protective phenotype. The balance between cell survival and cell death is decisive for sensitivity or
