• Targeting tumors may help stop spread of breast, other cancers

  Cancer that has spread from the site of an original tumor to other places in the body is often viewed as a death sentence. But if there are just a few of those secondary tumors, called metastases, some patients have a good chance of survival if treated with a type of radiation that precisely targets more

  Pantarhei Bioscience announces the publication in the Journal of the Federation of American Societies for Experimental Biology of the results of an innovative treatment strategy for ovarian cancer - which has now been selected to appear in the Faculty of 1000 (F1000) emphasizing its significance.In more

• New weapon in the fight against cancer

  Medicine could very soon have a new ally in the fight against cancer: Terbium-161. Its most important weapon: Conversion and Auger electrons. Researchers at the Technische Universität München (TUM) have developed a new treatment method based on the Terbium-161 radionuclide which could possibly soon more

• Opposite roles of FOXA1 and NKX2‐1 in lung cancer progression

  Abstract Gene copy number profiles of primary lung tumors were screened for high‐level amplifications. We detected 22 high‐level amplifications in various loci, including 14q13. This locus is known to harbor the adenocarcinoma (AC) lineage‐specific target gene NKX2‐1, which is not expressed in sq more

• Liver‐specific overexpression of matrix metalloproteinase 9 (MMP‐9) in transgenic mice accelerates development of hepatocellular carcinoma

  Abstract Matrix metalloproteinase‐9 (MMP‐9) plays a central role in tumor invasion and development of metastases. Expression of MMP‐9 had been shown in human hepatocellular carcinomas (HCCs). However, it remained unclear whether MMP‐9 could influence development of HCC. In order to address this i more
