Targeting the hypoxia pathway to treat pancreatic cancer
The correlation between hypoxia and pancreatic cancer has long been discussed. Hao's research team made many efforts on revealing the oncogenic function of hypoxic inducible factor-1 (HIF-1) in pancreatic cancer progression and development in recent years. Based on their research, they linked micro-environmental regulation of pancreatic cancer and its clinical significance. Hao's research team ...
متن کاملTargeting the hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF) pathway in cancer.
The central component of hypoxia sensing in the cell is the hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF) transcriptional complex. HIF activity is deregulated in many human cancers, especially those that are highly hypoxic. Hypoxic tumour cells are usually resistant to radiotherapy and most conventional chemotherapeutic agents, rendering them highly aggressive and metastatic. Overexpression of HIF-alpha, the ...
متن کاملTargeting Interferon- to Treat Atherosclerosis
The chronic inflammatory nature of atherosclerotic disease is now widely appreciated. Abnormal deposition and oxidative modification of serum lipoproteins in arterial walls stimulates the recruitment of monocytes and their conversion into foam cells. Concurrently, both innate and adaptive immune responses are induced. Cytokines and growth factors produced as part of these responses lead to the ...

متن کاملTargeting the Endocannabinoid System to Treat Sepsis
The endocannabinoid system represents a potential therapeutic target in sepsis due to the presence of cannabinoid receptors (CB2) on immune cells. In this review we discuss how various targets within the endocannabinoid system can be manipulated to treat the immune consequences of sepsis. One of the targets outlined are the endocannabinoid receptors and modulation of their activity through phar...
