Clinical Implication of Inflammation-Based Prognostic Score in Pancreatic Cancer
A variety of systemic inflammation-based prognostic scores have been explored; however, there has been no study to clarify which score could best reflect survival in resected pancreatic cancer patients.Between 2002 and 2014, 379 consecutive patients who underwent curative resection of pancreatic cancer were enrolled. The Glasgow Prognostic Score (GPS), modified GPS (mGPS), neutrophil to lymphoc...
متن کاملTargeting Translation Dependence in Cancer
A challenge in cancer therapy is to selectively target activities that are essential for survival of malignant cells while sparing normal cells. Translational control represents a potential anti-neoplastic target because it is exerted by major signaling pathways that are often usurped in cancers. Herein we describe approaches being developed that target eukaryotic initiation factor (eIF) 4F, a ...
متن کاملTargeting eNOS in pancreatic cancer.
Mortality from pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma cancer (PDAC) is among the highest of any cancer and frontline therapy has changed little in years. Activation of endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS, NOS3, or NOS III) has been implicated recently in the pathogenesis of PDACs. In this study, we used genetically engineered mouse and human xenograft models to evaluate the consequences of target...
متن کاملTargeting Cancer-Related Inflammation: Chinese Herbal Medicine Inhibits Epithelial-to-Mesenchymal Transition in Pancreatic Cancer
Pancreatic cancer is an almost universally fatal disease resulting from early invasion of adjacent structures and metastasis and the lack of an effective treatment modality. Our previous studies have shown that Qingyihuaji Formula (QYHJ), a seven-herb Chinese medicine formula, had significant anti-cancer effects in pancreatic cancer. Here, we examined the effects of QYHJ on pancreatic cancer ce...
متن کاملTargeting Pancreatic Cancer Stem Cells
Carcinomas of an epithelial-origin account for the majority of all malignant cancers worldwide. As the most common pancreatic cancer, Pancreatic Ductal Adeno Carcinoma (PDAC) is a carcinoma with an extremely high lethality [1-3]. Compared to other cancers originating in the digestive system, the therapeutic outcome of PDAC treatment is the least promising, largely resulting from a lack of sympt...
