Promising role for Gc-MAF in cancer immunotherapy: from bench to bedside
Immunotherapy has been used for years in many types of cancer therapy. Recently, cancer immunotherapy has focused on mechanisms which can enhance the development of cell-mediated immunity. Anticancer medications are administered to inhibit immunosuppressive factors such as nagalase enzyme, which is produced by neoplastic cells and destroys macrophage activating factor (Gc-MAF). Anti-neoplastics...
متن کاملTranslational Antidote Research: A Bedside to Bench Tale
Although antidote development should proceed in an orderly fashion from observation, to experimental and safety studies, to clinical trials, this sequence is not always precisely followed. The development of fomepizole as an antidote for toxic alcohol and glycol poisoning is an example of how this may not be the case. Interest in the development of fomepizole was spurred in the 1960s. Shortly t...
متن کاملTowards high-throughput functional target discovery in angiogenesis research.
Angiogenesis is a hallmark of malignancies and other proliferative diseases, and inhibition of this process is considered to be a promising treatment strategy. Classical gene-expression analyses performed during the past decade have generated vast lists of genes associated with disease but have so far yielded only limited novel therapeutic targets for clinical applications. Recently, the focus ...
متن کاملTumor Angiogenesis: Insights and Innovations
Angiogenesis is a vital process resulting in the formation of new blood vessels. It is normally a highly regulated process that occurs during human development, reproduction, and wound repair. However, angiogenesis can also become a fundamental pathogenic process found in cancer and several other diseases. To date, the inhibition of angiogenesis has been researched at both the bench and the bed...
متن کاملPlants as useful agents for angiogenesis and tumor growth prevention
Introduction: Angiogenesis, the process of new blood vessel formation from pre-existing vessels, has important physiological roles in embryonic development, female reproduction cycle, and wound healing. It is also crucial for pathological processes in several diseases especially tumor growth and metastasis. Thereby, inhibition of angiogenesis as an addition to the conventional therapies such...
