Anti-insulin growth factor receptor therapy in Ewing sarcoma
The insulin-like growth factor (IGF) signal transduction pathway appears to play a key role in the development and proliferation of the Ewing sarcoma family of tumors. Integration of anti-IGF-1 receptor therapy into the standard treatment for these patients is a novel approach that will likely be incorporated into future treatment to determine whether such agents will improve the outcome for pa...
متن کاملAnti-hiv Drug Targets
ANTI-HIV DRUG TARGETS HIV is a retrovirus, with a simple structure described in Box 1, and illustrated in Figure 1. It contains genes coding for a number of unique viral enzymes, required at different stages of the virus’s life cycle (see Box 2 and Figure 2). One of these is reverse transcriptase, required to make copies of the viral genes once it has infected human cells. Another is HIV protea...
متن کاملCombinatorial Drug Screening Identifies Ewing Sarcoma-specific Sensitivities.
Improvements in survival for Ewing sarcoma pediatric and adolescent patients have been modest over the past 20 years. Combinations of anticancer agents endure as an option to overcome resistance to single treatments caused by compensatory pathways. Moreover, combinations are thought to lessen any associated adverse side effects through reduced dosing, which is particularly important in childhoo...
متن کاملMicroRNAs in Ewing Sarcoma
MicroRNAs (miRs) have emerged recently as important regulators of gene expression in the cell. Frequently dysregulated in cancer, miRs have shed new light on molecular mechanisms of oncogenesis, and have generated substantial interest as biomarkers, and novel therapeutic agents and targets. Recently, a number of studies have examined miR biology in Ewing sarcoma. Findings indicate that alterati...
متن کاملEwing Sarcoma Family of Tumors
The Ewing sarcoma family of tumors (ESFT) consists of a group of tumors characterized by morphologically similar round-cell neoplasm and by the presence of a common chromosomal translocation. Although rare, such tumors constitute the third most frequent primary sarcoma of bone after osteosarcoma and chondrosarcoma. ESFT most commonly affects young children and adolescents. Because most patients...
