In oncology, elevated ENPP2 expression enhances LPA-mediated signaling, driving tumor proliferation, invasion, and metastasis in breast, ovarian, and liver cancers. Experimental models show that inhibiting ENPP2 reduces tumor growth and limits metastatic potential, providing a strong rationale for therapeutic intervention. ...
This modification system plays a crucial role in cellular biological processes such as tumor metabolism and immune regulation while also shaping the tumor microenvironment through control of translation efficiency and mitochondrial function along with tRNA fragment generation. ...
Unlike traditional cancer therapies that often target the tumor directly, these services aim to empower the immune system to recognize and attack cancer more effectively. ...
PDX models involve implanting human tumor tissues into immunocompromised mice, allowing researchers to study tumor growth and response to treatment in a living organism. These models retain the genetic and phenotypic characteristics of the original human tumors, providing insights into how different therapies may perform in ...
Phases of the Cell Cycle The cell cycle consists of several stages, each playing a distinct role in cell growth and division. 1. G₁ Phase (First Gap Phase) l The cell increases in size and prepares for DNA synthesis. l Growth factors and environmental cues determine if the cell will continue dividing or enter a resting state. 2. ...
A key aspect of studying the immune system involves analyzing cytokines, chemokines, and growth factors—molecules that regulate immune responses and influence disease progression. ...
These compounds deter pests and inhibit microbial growth, enhancing plant survival. The specific type and concentration of glucosinolates vary across plant species and tissues, providing a tailored defense system. ...
For instance, sphingolipids in exosomes are implicated in cancer progression by promoting exosome-mediated signaling that enhances tumor cell proliferation and immune evasion. Researchers have found that alterations in exosomal lipid profiles can be a hallmark of disease. In cancer, for example, exosomes derived from tumor cells exhibit changes in lipid ...
In cancer research, reporter stable cell lines can help illuminate tumor behavior. By labeling cancer cells with a fluorescent or luminescent reporter gene, scientists can track tumor growth and metastasis both in vitro and in vivo. ...
Many studies have demonstrated that miRNA mimics can suppress tumor growth and metastasis by restoring the expression of tumor-suppressor genes. ...
Precision-Cut Lung Slices (PCLS) have emerged as a innovative ex vivo model that allows researchers to explore deep into lung physiology, disease mechanisms, and pharmacological responses. By offering a unique combination of biological complexity and controlled experimental conditions, PCLS serve as a critical bridge between the limitations of traditional in vitro cell cultures and the ...
These approaches allow the targeted delivery of genes that can inhibit tumor growth or enhance the immune system's capability to recognize and destroy cancer cells. One promising strategy is to deliver genes that express tumor suppressor proteins or anticancer agents into cancer cells to induce cell death or inhibit their proliferation. ...
For example, in cancer, abnormal glycosylation patterns may lead to changes in protein function, thereby promoting tumor growth and metastasis. The detection of glycosylation sites provides new avenues for early diagnosis and treatment of diseases. ...
The metabolic patterns of tumor cells are not invariable, but constantly change with the changes of microenvironment, the purpose of which is to enable tumor cells to maintain a selective growth advantage in an unfavorable survival environment. ...
Brain tumors can be broadly categorized into primary and secondary (or metastatic) tumors. ...
Ongoing research and inventions in the field of oncology focus on the development of small molecule drug therapies for use in brain tumor resection. Small molecule drugs are being developed to target and effectively treat brain tumors to improve therapeutic outcomes. ...
Thyroid hormones play a vital role in regulating various metabolic processes throughout the body, including energy production, body temperature, heart rate, and growth. They are essential for proper development and functioning of organs, tissues, and cells. ...
The purpose of DAC is to treat diseases by targeting and degrading pathological proteins, such as degrading key proteins on the surface of tumor cells in cancer treatment.Common Features of SMDC, ADC, and DACSMDC, ADC, and DAC all utilize advanced structure optimization techniques, combining the active ingredients of drugs with targeted strategies that enhance drug specificity, ...
These peptides play a crucial role in the innate immune system's defense against microbial infections, exhibiting antimicrobial properties that can inhibit the growth or kill bacteria, fungi, viruses, and even some parasites. AMPs possess broad-spectrum activity, targeting various pathogens. ...
Fucoidan derivatives have been shown to inhibit tumor cell growth, induce apoptosis, and suppress tumor metastasis. Additionally, marine polysaccharides exhibit antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, anticoagulant, and immunomodulatory activities, making them highly valuable for drug discovery and development. l Drug Delivery System In drug delivery ...
