متن کاملFuture of Triple Negative Breast Cancer: Can Immunotherapy Treat This Deadly Subtype of Breast Cancer?
Triple negative breast cancer (TNBC): challenges and solutions via the immune cells TNBC is one of the most complicated types of breast cancer to treat. It is generally diagnosed based on the absence of three receptors: estrogen, progesterone, and human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) and is thus defined as a triple negative.

متن کاملCan We Use Nanotechnology to Treat Cancer?
Could the next big change in cancer treatment actually be tiny? There are many reasons that cancer is such a difficult disease to treat. Scientists can either try to come up with new and better cancer medicines or they can find better ways for cancer patients to receive their medicines.

متن کاملCan engineered bacteria help control cancer?
H and anoxia are pathophysiologic characteristics of most solid tumors (1, 2). For nearly 150 years, nonpathogenic, anaerobic bacteria that preferentially localize and proliferate in the hypoxic regions of tumors have been investigated as treatments for experimental and human tumors with mixed success (Table 1). In recent years, there has been a renewed interest in using these bacteria as innov...
متن کاملHow Can We Treat Cancer Disease Not Cancer Cells?
Since molecular biology studies began, researches in biological science have centered on proteins and genes at molecular level of a single cell. Cancer research has also focused on various functions of proteins and genes that distinguish cancer cells from normal cells. Accordingly, most contemporary anticancer drugs have been developed to target abnormal characteristics of cancer cells. Despite...
