Tumor Suppressing Pathways
The search for the tumor suppressor gene on 18q Identification of the cell regulatory genes that drive carexemplifies this challenge. The initial candidate gene cinogenesis is one of the major goals in cancer research, identified in the 18q region, DCC, seemed at first to resulting in new anticancer drug targets and new therameet the appropriate criteria for a tumor suppressor peutic and diagno...
متن کاملTumor-suppressing 15-Lipoxygenase-2
Lipoxygenases (LOX) comprise a family of non-heme-iron-containing proteins that cata-lyze the dioxygenation of polyunsaturated fatty acids to form bioactive lipids. Metabolism of arachidonic acid by LOXs leads to the formation of regioisomeric cis/trans-conjugated hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acids (HeTes), leukot-rienes, lipoxins, and hepoxilins. Dependent on the predominant position of the incorpo...
متن کاملHormonal therapy for suppressing lactation.
In recent years, hormonal suppression of undesired lactation has been widely employed. A review of the literature confirms the efficacy of this method, at first with estrogen alone and later with progestogen-estrogen combinations. The authors also discuss retrospective studies of the incidence of thromboembolism in such patients, and report on a new double-blind study of the successful use of n...
متن کاملTumor-targeted gene therapy for nasopharyngeal carcinoma.
The unique feature of human nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) is its almost universal association with the EBV, which is expressed in a latent form exclusively in cancer cells, and not in the surrounding tissues. We have exploited this differential by constructing a novel replication-deficient adenovirus vector (ad5.oriP) in which transgene expression is under the transcriptional regulation of the...
متن کاملp53 Tumor Suppressor Gene Therapy for Cancer
Gene therapy has the potential to provide cancer treatments based on novel mechanisms of action with potentially low toxicities. This therapy may provide more effective control of locoregional recurrence in diseases like non–small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) as well as systemic control of micrometastases. Despite current limitations, retroviral and adenoviral vectors can, in certain circumstances,...
