Dasatinib and PD-L1 inhibitors provoke toxicity and inhibit angiogenesis in the embryo
(
Elsevier
, 2021 , Article)
Dasatinib is a targeted cancer therapy, while programmed death ligand 1 (PD-L1) inhibitors are a form of immune checkpoint therapy used to treat various types of cancers. Several studies showed the potential efficacy of ...
Plasmonic MXene-based nanocomposites exhibiting photothermal therapeutic effects with lower acute toxicity than pure MXene
(
DOVE Medical Press
, 2019 , Article)
Purpose: Here, we fabricated two plasmonic 2D Ti3C2Tx-based nanocomposites (Au/MXene and Au/Fe3O4/MXene) with similarly high anti-cancer photothermal therapy (PTT) capabilities, but with less in vivo toxicity than a pure ...
SARS-CoV-2 Infection and Lung Cancer: Potential Therapeutic Modalities.
(
MDPI
, 2020 , Article Review)
Human coronaviruses, especially SARS-CoV-2, are emerging pandemic infectious diseases with high morbidity and mortality in certain group of patients. In general, SARS-CoV-2 causes symptoms ranging from the common cold to ...
Circulating miRNAs in HER2-Positive and Triple Negative Breast Cancers: Potential Biomarkers and Therapeutic Targets.
(
MDPI
, 2020 , Article)
Breast cancer is one of the most prevalent diseases among women worldwide and is highly associated with cancer-related mortality. Of the four major molecular subtypes, HER2-positive and triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) ...
Towards understanding the mechanisms of actions of carcinoembryonic antigen-related cell adhesion molecule 6 in cancer progression
(
Wiley Open Access
, 2017 , Article Review)
Human carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) is the prototypic member of a family of
highly related cell surface glycoproteins that includes carcinoembryonic antigenrelated
cell adhesion molecule 6 (CEACAM6) and others. CEACAM6 ...
Novel CD44-downstream signaling pathways mediating breast tumor invasion
(
Ivyspring International Publisher
, 2018 , Article Review)
CD44, also known as homing cell adhesion molecule is a multi-structural cell molecule involved in cell-cell
and cell-extracellular matrix communications. CD44 regulates a number of central signaling pathways,
including ...
Novel role of BRCA1 interacting C-terminal helicase 1 (BRIP1) in breast tumour cell invasion
(
Wiley Open Access
, 2020 , Article)
Breast cancer (BC) is the most common malignancy and the leading cause of death in women worldwide. Only 5%-10% of mutations in BRCA genes are associated with familial breast tumours in Eastern countries, suggesting the ...
Mesoporous silica coated carbon nanofibers reduce embryotoxicity via ERK and JNK pathways
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2021 , Article)
Carbon nanofibers (CNFs) have been implicated in biomedical applications, yet, they are still considered as a potential hazard. Conversely, mesoporous silica is a biocompatible compound that has been used in various ...
Significant Toxic Effect of Carbon Nanofibers at the Early Stage of Embryogenesis
(
NLM (Medline)
, 2020 , Article)
Implementation of carbon nanofibers (CNFs) in biomedical applications have successful outcomes, however, they are still considered as a potential hazard. We herein used avian embryos at 3 days and its chorioallantoic ...
Novel nitrogen-based chalcone analogs provoke substantial apoptosis in HER2-positive human breast cancer cells via JNK and ERK1/ERK2 signaling pathways
(
MDPI
, 2021 , Article)
Natural chalcones possess antitumor properties and play a role as inducers of apoptosis, antioxidants and cytotoxic compounds. We recently reported that novel nitrogen chalcone-based compounds, which were generated in our ...
