Cucurbitacins - a promising target for cancer therapy.
During the last decades a large number of cucurbitacins have been isolated from various plant species belonging to other plant families than Cucurbitaceae. Although the roots and the fruits of plant belong to these Cucurbitaceae species are very bitter, they have been used as folk medicines in some countries because of their wide spectrum of pharmacological activities such as anti-inflammation ...
متن کاملHMGB1: A Promising Therapeutic Target for Prostate Cancer
High mobility group box 1 (HMGB1) was originally discovered as a chromatin-binding protein several decades ago. It is now increasingly evident that HMGB1 plays a major role in several disease conditions such as atherosclerosis, diabetes, arthritis, sepsis, and cancer. It is intriguing how deregulation of HMGB1 can result in a myriad of disease conditions. Interestingly, HMGB1 is involved in cel...
متن کاملThe Role of MRSI in Target Volume Definition for Radiation Therapy of Prostate Cancer
Introduction: Recently, magnetic resonance spectroscopic imaging (MRSI), as a functional imaging method, has been used for clinical target volume definition. In this study, we used this method to define the target volume in prostate radiotherapy. Material and Method: In this study, we used images of 20 prostate cancer cases. MRSI and MRI images were fused with CT images. Then, treatment plannin...
متن کاملFucosylation Is a Promising Target for Cancer Diagnosis and Therapy
Oligosaccharides, sequences of carbohydrates conjugated to proteins and lipids, are arguably the most abundant and structurally diverse class of molecules. Fucosylation is one of the most important oligosaccharide modifications involved in cancer and inflammation. Recent advances in glycomics have identified several types of glyco-biomarkers containing fucosylation that are linked to certain ty...
متن کاملATP-binding cassette transporter A1: regulation of cholesterol efflux.
The ATP-binding cassette transporter A1 (ABCA1) is involved in the regulation of cholesterol efflux from cells. Mutations in ABCA1 give rise to familial high-density lipoprotein (HDL) deficiency and Tangier disease, which is characterized by very low levels of HDL in plasma and cholesteryl ester accumulation in tonsils and other reticuloendothelial cells. The mechanism of action of ABCA1 is sti...
