Diastereoselective approach to rationally design tetrahydro-β-carboline–isatin conjugates as potential SERMs against breast cancer

Progesterone receptor activation. an alternative to SERMs in breast cancer.

Data regarding the effects of progesterone and a progestagen on human normal breast epithelial cell proliferation and apoptosis are presented here. In postmenopausal women, adding progesterone to percutaneously administrated oestradiol significantly reduces the proliferation induced by oestradiol. In vitro and in premenopausal women, stopping the administration of nomegestrol acetate triggers a...

Potential of using breast milk as a tool to study breast cancer and breast cancer risk.

Design of a Novel Recombinant Multi-Epitope Vaccine against Triple-Negative Breast Cancer

Background: Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is determined by the absence of ERBB2, estrogen and progesterone receptors’ expression. Cancer vaccines, as the novel immunotherapy strategies, have emerged as promising tools   for treating the advanced stage of TNBC. The aim of this study was to evaluate Carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA), Metadherin (MTDH), and Mucin 1 (MUC-1) proteins as vaccine ...

In silico Evaluation of PLAC1-fliC As a Chimeric Vaccine against Breast Cancer

Background: Breast cancer is one of the most prevalent cancers among women. Common cancer treatment methods are not effective enough, and there is a need for a more efficient treatment procedure. Cancer vaccine is a novel immunotherapy method that stimulates humoral and/or cellular immunity against cancer. Placenta-specific protein 1 (PLAC1) is a cancer/testis antigen, prevalent in breast cance...
