متن کاملTargeted therapies for pancreatic cancer.
INTRODUCTION Pancreatic cancer is a devastating malignancy and a leading cause of cancer mortality. Furthermore, early diagnosis represents a serious hurdle for clinicians, as symptoms are non-specific and usually manifest in advanced, treatment-resistant stages of the disease. SOURCES OF DATA Here, we review the rationale and progress of targeted therapies currently under investigation. AR...
متن کاملHost-Directed Therapies for Tuberculosis.
Host-directed therapies are a relatively new and promising approach to treatment of tuberculosis. Modulation of specific host immune pathways, including those that impact inflammation and immunopathology, can limit mycobacterial infection and pathology, both in cell culture and in animal models. This review explores a range of host pathways and drugs, some already approved for clinical use that...
