Snake venom toxins: Potential anticancer therapeutics
Abstract Snake venom contains a cocktail of compounds dominated by proteins and peptides, which make up the toxin. The toxin components of snake venom attack several targets in the human body including the neuromuscular system, kidney and blood coagulation system and cause pathologies. As such, the venom toxins can be managed and used for the treatment

Animals bearing malignant grafts reject normal grafts that express through gene transfer the same antigen. [PDF]
Breaking the state of immunological unresponsiveness of tumor-bearing individuals to cancer is a prerequisite for active or passive tumor-specific immunotherapy.

Targets of tumor microenvironment for potential drug development
Here we review the potential targets of drugs according to the components of the tumor microenvironment (TME), including immune cells, stromal cells, and extracellular matrix (ECM) proteins, and further classify the key genes based on whether they function in direct or indirect way, to provide a comprehensive view of the current landscape of cancer ...

Update of the risk assessment of polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs) in food
Abstract The European Commission asked EFSA to update its 2011 risk assessment on polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs) in food, focusing on 10 congeners: BDE‐28, ‐47, ‐49, ‐99, ‐100, ‐138, ‐153, ‐154, ‐183 and ‑209. The CONTAM Panel concluded that the neurodevelopmental effects on behaviour and reproductive/developmental effects are the critical ...
