Human Papillomavirus and Cancer - Immunological Consequences of MHC Class I Down-Regulation
Few studies have been conducted on the causative factors associated with the development of cancer. Infection by high risk human papillomaviruses (HPVs) have been implicated as causative agents in a variety of cancers. HPV is capable of evading immune system and establishing persistent infections. Prolonged infection and lesion maintenance are associated with higher risk of neoplastic progressi...
متن کاملNew Approaches to Use Nanoparticles for Treatment of Colorectal Cancer; a Brief Review
Nanoparticles have been at the center of research focus as a new promising material for the treatment of cancer in recent years. Although many chemotherapy drugs for cancer treatment are available, their potential toxicity is the main point of concern. On the other hand, the conventional chemotherapeutic approach has not been found to be very efficient in colorectal cancer (CRC) as the drug mol...
متن کاملTherapeutic Potential of Oncolytic Viruses in the Treatment of Lung Cancer Caused by Chemical Warfare Agents: A Narrative Review

متن کاملمروری بر چالکونهای ضد سرطان القاکننده آپوپتوز
Cancer is a complex and life-threatening disease involving uncontrollable cell proliferation, evading apoptosis, and metastasis. Despite recent developments in cancer chemotherapy, there are no effective broad spectrum anticancer agents that could selectively target cancer cells. Thus, designing and discovering new efficient and selective anticancer agents are urgent needs. It is important that...
متن کاملThree new scorpion chloride channel toxins as potential anti-cancer drugs: Computational prediction of the interactions with hMMP-2 by docking and Steered Molecular Dynamics Simulations
Scorpion venom is a rich source of toxins which have great potential to develop new therapeutic agents. Scorpion chloride channel toxins (ClTxs), such as Chlorotoxin selectively inhibit human Matrix Methaloproteinase-2 (hMMP-2). The inhibitors of hMMP-2 have potential use in cancer therapy. Three new ClTxs, meuCl14, meuCl15 and meuCl16, derived from the venom transcriptome of Iranian scorpion, ...
