چکیده
The headlines stemming from colon cancer treatment and prevention are abundant these days. From one source (medicalnewstoday.com) in the past month alone, there are news stories with headlines like, “... Scientists patent an effective drug for treating breast, colon, and skin cancers,” and “Newly identified biomarker may help predict colon cancer progression, personalize therapy.” So how do you break through the hype to what is truly breaking news in the prevention and treatment for colon cancer today?

متن کاملAnti-cancer properties of Escherichia coli Nissle 1917 against HT-29 colon cancer cells through regulation of Bax/Bcl-xL and AKT/PTEN signaling pathways
Objective(s): Chemotherapies used to treat colon cancer might often fail due to the emergence of chemoresistance and side effects. Escherichia coli Nissle 1917 (EcN) is a beneficial probiotic, whose molecular mechanisms in the prevention of colon cancer are yet to be fully understood. The present study assessed the anti-cancer effects of EcN treatments in human colorec...
متن کاملAn answer to colon cancer treatment by mesenchymal stem cell originated from adipose tissue
Objective(s): Colon cancer is risen up with its complex mechanism that directly impacts on its treatment as well as its common prevalence. Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have been considered as a therapeutic candidate for conventional disease including cancer. In this research, we have focused on apoptotic effects of adipose tissue-derived MSCs in colon cancer.Materials and Methods: MSCs were ob...

متن کاملOut-Of-Field Dose Measurement and Second Cancer-Risk Estimation Following External Beam Radiotherapy and Brachytherapy for Cervical Cancer Treatment: A Phantom Study
Introduction: The present study aimed to measure the scatter and leakage dose received by out-of-field organs while delivering Radiotherapy (RT) treatment of cervical cancer. Moreover, this study estimated the risk of second cancer (SC). The doses to out-of-field organs were measured using a lithium fluoride (TLD 100) dosimeter while delivering External Beam Radiothera...
