sunitinib is an oral tyrosine kinase inhibitor which prevents tumor growth and metastatic progression. it was approved for treatment of advanced renal cell cancer, gastrointestinal stromal tumor and advanced pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors. it has several adverse reactions on multi organ systems including hematologic system. although the neutropenia and thrombocytopenia commonly happens as gra...

introduction: imatinib mesylate is a selective inhibitor of tk and is considered now to be the frontline therapeutic agent during the chronic phase of cml. we have evaluated the efficacy of it on children with chronic-phase of cml. patients and methods: in a clinical trial study over the past 3 years, 14 patients (8 females and 6 males, 2.5-14 years old) were admitted with a diagnosis of cml. s...

Functional foods have emerged as a new approach to improve human health in term of nutraceutical to prevent people from illness rather than cure patients though medical treatment. In Asian society, particularly in Thailand, the utilizations of functional ingredients have been integrated in every parts of ordinary life. In this study, the tyrosine kinase activity of epidermal growth factor recep...

background & objectives: anaplastic lymphoma kinase (alk) is a receptor tyrosine kinase involved in the genesis of several human cancers. alk was initially identified because of its involvement in anaplastic large cell lymphoma (alcl). alk is believed to foster tumorigenesis following activation by autocrine and/or paracrine growth loops. studies reveal that the presence of anti-alk antibod...

Background: The secondary genetic changes other than the promyelocytic leukemia-retinoic acid receptor (PML-RARA) fusion gene may contribute to the acute promyelocytic leukemogenesis. Chromosomal alterations and mutation of FLT3 (FMS-like tyrosine kinase 3) tyrosine kinase receptor are the frequent genetic alterations in acute myeloid leukemia. However, the prognostic significance of FLT3 mutat...

genistein is a soya isoflavone, which is found naturally in legumes, such as soybeans and chickpeas. the intraperitoneal administration of the optimum dose (200 mg/kg) of genistein 24 h and 15 minbefore irradiation (8 gy at a dose rate of 1.02 gy/min) recovered the deficit in protein content (28.63±1.44%) and the dna content (21.61±8.19%) if an average of 5 intervals of autopsies 1st, 3rd, 7th,...

Introduction The receptor tyrosine kinase Axl is described as a driver for migration and metastasis well resistance against molecular targeting agents radio- chemotherapy (RCT) in various tumor entities including head neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC). For the latter, clinical data describing impact of its ligand Gas6 on patient outcome are sparse.
