When a cell’s DNA is damaged, the injured cells react by changing from normal to malignant cells, rather than dying or repairing the damage. Metastatic cancer is the deadliest kind of cancer since it refers to cancer that has spread to other parts of the patient’s body. The need for cancer detection techniques that are rapid, non-invasive, and accurate is growing. Cancer diagnosis, monitoring, ...

recently, specific attention has been paid to aptamers, short dna or rna, as a tool for cancer diagnosis and therapy. in the present study mcs nanogels were prepared by myristate: chitosan at 1:9 ratio and were characterized by several techniques. a selected ssdna aptamer(apt) capable of detecting lncap cells was linked to myristilated chitosan nanogels (apt-mcs) by glutaraldehyde and loaded wi...

One of the emerging therapeutic strategies for targeted therapy of cancer is the use of chimeric proteins. The p28 peptide has the ability of selective entrance and activating apoptosis in breast cancer cells. The NRC antimicrobial peptide showed cytotoxic activity on various breast cancer including drug-resistant variants but also normal cell lines. Here we designed a chimeric protein consiste...
