Strengthening Tumor Blood Vessels Could Improve Delivery of Anticancer Drugs
Since poor blood circulation to tumors may mean that anticancer drugs fail to reach their target in high enough concentration to be effective, some cancer researchers are suggesting a radical approach to normalize tumor blood supply. More...30 Aug 2012
Combined Chemotherapy and Immunotherapy Treatment Halts Growth of Metastatic Melanoma
A treatment for metastatic melanoma combines chemotherapy with the recently approved BRAF inhibitor vemurafenib, and immunotherapy with adoptive cell transfer therapy using lymphocytes genetically modified with a T-cell receptor recognizing chicken ovalbumin. More...29 Aug 2012
Genotoxic Genes in Certain Gut Bacteria Linked to Chronic Bowel Inflammation and Colon Cancer
Certain strains of gut bacteria - Escherichia coli bearing the polyketide synthase cluster of genotoxic genes – have been linked to chronic inflammatory bowel diseases such as Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis and to the development of colorectal cancer. More...29 Aug 2012
More Evidence Suggests Passenger Gene Deletions Increase the Vulnerability of Cancer Cells to Chemotherapy
The theory that loss of tumor suppressor genes in cancerous cells is accompanied by the loss of copies of other genes critical to cell survival received strong backing from results obtained in experiments using a mouse brain cancer model. More...28 Aug 2012
