despite development of new approaches for the treatment of cancer disease, it is the second cause of mortality in world. annually, 30000 persons die in iran due to cancer diseases. eighty percent of cancer patients are children which about 50% children lead to death. given the high rate of cancer-related death, the new approaches for prevention, control, early diagnosis, and treatment of this d...

Objective(s): Berberine is one of the main alkaloids and it has been proven to have different pharmacological effects including inhibition of cell cycle and progression of apoptosis in various cancerous cells; however, its effects on cancer metastasis are not well known. Cancer cells obtain the ability to change their chemokine system and convert into metastatic cells. In this study, we examine...

the epigenetic alterations like histone modifications , dna methylation and others remarkable categories  including nucleosome remodeling and rna mediated targeting have been strongly investigated  recently .in this way , beside the notable importance of dna methylation ,the histone modifications are the most important issues in the  tumorogenesis and cancer progression. moreover, the fluctuati...

Magnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (IONPs) are one of the most extensively studied materials for theranostic applications. IONPs can be used magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), delivery therapeutics, and hyperthermia treatment. Silk is a biocompatible material biomedical Previously, we produced spheres made H2.1MS1 bioengineered silk that specifically carried drug to Her2-overexpressing cancer cel...

Abstract Background Effective methods to deliver therapeutic genes solid tumors and improve their bioavailability are the main challenges of current medical research on gene therapy. The development efficient non-viral vector with tumor-targeting has very important application value in field cancer Proteolipid integrated potential functional protein excellent delivery performance shown for targ...

Mitochondria are vital organelles to eukaryotic cells. Damage to mitochondria will cause irreversible cell death or apoptosis. In this report, we aim at programmed cancer cell death via specific mitochondrial damage. Herein, a functionalized pro-apoptotic peptide demonstrates a dual-targeting capability using folic acid (FA) (targeting agent I) and triphenylphosphonium (TPP) cation (targeting a...

background: the fundamental principles of internal targeted alpha therapy for cancer were established many decades ago.the high linear energy transfer (let) of alpha radiation to the targeted cancer cellscauses double strand breaks in dna. at the same time, the short range radiation spares adjacent normal tissues. this targeted approach complements conventional external beam radiotherapy and ch...
