Molecular targets of pomegranate (Punica granatum) in preventing cancer metastasis
Metastasis is the primary cause of mortality and morbidity among cancer patients and accounts for about 90% of cancer deaths. The most common types of treatment for cancer metastasis are chemotherapy and radiotherapy. However, such therapy has many serious side effects that could diminish the quality of life in patients. There is increased appreciation by the scientific community that natural c...
متن کاملProteins as binding targets of isothiocyanates in cancer prevention.
Isothiocyanates are versatile cancer-preventive compounds. Evidence from animal studies indicates that the anticarcinogenic activities of ITCs involve all the major stages of tumor growth: initiation, promotion and progression. Epidemiological studies have also shown that dietary intake of ITCs is associated with reduced risk of certain human cancers. A number of mechanisms have been proposed f...
متن کاملRecent Advances in Molecular Diagnosis of Thyroid Cancer
Recent molecular studies have described a number of abnormalities associated with the progression and dedifferentiation of thyroid carcinoma. These distinct molecular events are often associated with specific stages of tumor development. In particular, remarkable advances have occurred in several major biological areas of thyroid cancer, including the molecular alterations for the loss of radio...
متن کاملRecent Advances in Molecular Diagnosis of Gastric Cancer
Gastric cancer (GC) is one of the most common cancers worldwide. Despite recent advances in early detection, most cancerous patients are detected in advanced stages and so, 5-year survival rate is very low. So, there is an urge need for the discovery of sensitive early detection biomarkers for GC patients. Several serum tumor markers have been used in clinic for several years such as α-fetoprot...
