In silico prediction of anticancer peptides by TRAINER tool

Cancer is one of the causes of death in the world. Several treatment methods exist against cancer cells such as radiotherapy and chemotherapy. Since traditional methods have side effects on normal cells and are expensive, identification and developing a new method to cancer therapy is very important. Antimicrobial peptides, present in a wide variety of organisms, such as plants, amphibians and ...

Current Concepts in the Diagnosis and Management of Patients With Malignant Peritoneal Mesothelioma

Malignant peritoneal mesothelioma (MPM) is a malignancy that arises from the mesothelial lining of the abdominal cavity and largely manifests as a diffuse process. There are two hallmark features of MPM. First, MPM may progress and present itself diversely among patients. While some patients may endure a quick tumor progression that is refractory to seemingly successful initial therapeutic cyto...

Molecular mechanisms involved in multidrug resistance in breast cancer therapy

Breast cancer is the most prevalent cancer in women. Chemotherapy is the main strategy in the treatment of this disease especially in the advanced form of the disease. Despite the recent progress in the development of new chemotherapy, the effectiveness of these drugs has dramatically reduced due to multidrug resistance. The phenotype of multidrug resistance (MDR) can occur through different me...
