Immunotherapy for Breast Cancer Treatment
Breast cancer, as a heterogeneous disease, includes a wide range of pathological and clinical behaviors. Current treatment protocols, including radiotherapy, chemotherapy, and hormone replacement therapy, are mainly associated with poor response and high rate of recurrence. Therefore, more efforts are needed to develop alternative therapies for this type of cancer. Immunotherapy, as a novel str...
متن کاملExpression and targeting of human fibroblast activation protein in a human skin/severe combined immunodeficient mouse breast cancer xenograft model.
Antigens and receptors that are highly expressed on tumor stromal cells, such as fibroblast activation protein (FAP), are attractive targets for antibody-based therapies because the supporting stroma and vessel network is essential for a solid neoplasm to grow beyond a size of 1-2 mm. The in vivo characterization of antibodies targeting human stromal or vessel antigens is hindered by the lack o...
متن کاملImmunotoxin treatment of cancer.
Immunotoxins are proteins used to treat cancer that are composed of an antibody fragment linked to a toxin. The immunotoxin binds to a surface antigen on a cancer cell, enters the cell by endocytosis, and kills it. The most potent immunotoxins are made from bacterial and plant toxins. Refinements over many years have produced recombinant immunotoxins; these therapeutic proteins are made using p...
متن کاملTargeting fibroblast activation protein inhibits tumor stromagenesis and growth in mice.
Membrane-bound proteases have recently emerged as critical mediators of tumorigenesis, angiogenesis, and metastasis. However, the mechanisms by which they regulate these processes remain unknown. As the cell surface serine protease fibroblast activation protein (FAP) is selectively expressed on tumor-associated fibroblasts and pericytes in epithelial tumors, we set out to investigate the role o...

چکیده: سرطان پستان دومین عامل مرگ مرتبط با سرطان در خانم ها است. از آنجا که سرطان پستان یک تومور وابسته به هورمون است، می تواند توسط وضعیت هورمون های استروئیدی شامل استروژن و پروژسترون تنظیم شود. استروژن نقش مهمی در توسعه و پیشرفت سرطان پستان ایفا می کند و تاثیر خود را روی بیان ژن های هدف از طریق گیرنده های استروژن اعمال می کند. اما گروه دیگری از گیرنده های هسته ای به نام گیرنده های مرتبط به ا...
