Using relatively primitive tools in the 1920s, Otto Warburg demonstrated that tumor cells show an increased dependence on glycolysis to meet their energy needs, regardless of whether they were well-oxygenated or not. High rates of glucose uptake, fueling glycolysis, are now used clinically to

Many Siglecs function as inhibitory receptors on innate and adaptive immune cells and may contribute to the attenuation of immune responses to tumors. Siglec 9 on neutrophils and Siglec 7 on NK cells are prominent examples of inhibitory Siglecs that can potentially dampen anti-tumor immunity. CD169

Incubation of whole bovine lens with 10(-7) M 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA) led to the lens opacity within 24 h. The hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) concentration in the whole lens was elevated 4 fold after treatment with either 10(-7) M TPA or 2.5 mM glucose/20 microM glucose oxidase. The

A Prolate-Spheroidal Impulse Radiating Antenna (PSIRA) is used as a non-invasive technique for generating an electromagnetic implosion to kill melanoma cells. It can launch and focus fast (100 ps) high voltage (>50 KV) pulses into the biological targets. It can be used to obtain electromagnetic

The anticancer drug Adriamycin has photosensitizing properties which potentially may be detrimental to lens tissue. Since reduced glutathione (GSH) serves to protect lens from photo-oxidative stress and dietary riboflavin is required by glutathione reductase to regenerate GSH, we investigated

OBJECTIVE To evaluate the evolution of chronic uveitis in children undergoing cataract surgery with primary intraocular lens (IOL) implantation. METHODS Twelve children with chronic uveitis underwent cataract surgery with primary posterior chamber intraocular lens (IOL)

Acoustic lenses are employed in a variety of applications, from biomedical imaging and surgery to defense systems and damage detection in materials. Focused acoustic signals, for example, enable ultrasonic transducers to image the interior of the human body. Currently however the performance of

The Prolate Spheroidal Impulse Radiating Antenna (PSIRA) is used to radiate very fast pulses in a narrow beam with low dispersion and high field amplitude. The PSIRA is suitable to apply fast, intense pulses without direct contact, for skin cancer treatment. In this proposed work, SWB (Slanted Wire

Hypericin has been reported as a potent photosensitizing agent exhibiting antiviral, antibacterial, antineoplastic activities. Although its photophysics and mode of action are strongly modulated by the binding protein, detailed information about its mechanism of interaction with possible cellular

Cisplatin-based concurrent chemoradiotherapy (CCRT) has become a standard treatment for cancer of the uterine cervix. However, there have been no investigations into the optimum timing for administration of anticancer drugs using animal models. The aim of the present study was to determine the

Selective covalent CDK7 inhibitor THZ1 is a promising potential anti-tumor drug in many kinds of cancers. Epithelial-mesenchymal Transition (EMT) is highly related to cancer initiation, development, invasion and metastasis and other pathogenesis processes. We treated cancer cell line Hela229 and

We have studied the effect of 3-nitrobenzothiazolo(3,2-a)quinolinium (NBQ) on the regeneration of the lens in adult newt Notophthalmus viridescens. NBQ has marked cytotoxic effects in tumor cells, intercalates DNA, and was found to enhance lens regeneration. Newt liver DNA was isolated, and the

Epidemiological and experimental studies have revealed that lens epithelial cells exposed to ultraviolet B (UVB) light could be induced apoptosis, and lens epithelial cell apoptosis can initiate cataractogenesis. Posterior capsular opacification (PCO), the most frequent complication after cataract

A thorough understanding of the ecological and evolutionary mechanisms that drive the phenotypic evolution of neoplastic cells is a timely and key challenge for the cancer research community. In this respect, mathematical modelling can complement experimental cancer research by offering alternative
