Epigenetic and breast cancer therapy: Promising diagnostic and therapeutic applications.
( Elsevier , 2020 , Article Review)The global burden of breast cancer (BC) is increasing significantly. This trend is caused by several factors such as late diagnosis, limited treatment options for certain BC subtypes, drug resistance which all lead to poor ... -
Correction to: Role of non-coding RNA networks in leukemia progression, metastasis and drug resistance (Molecular Cancer, (2020), 19, 1, (57), 10.1186/s12943-020-01175-9)
( BMC , 2020 , Other)Following the publication of the original article [1], authors have noticed that one of the authors, Syed Shadab Raza, was missing in the Authors’ Contributions section. Please see below updated section. -
Cardiac Myosin Binding Protein-C in Sprague Dawley (SD) Rats exposed to Sub-Chronic oral dose of Cadmium Chloride
( Qatar University Press , 2021 , Poster)Cadmium is one of the major environmental pollutants associated with an increment in industrial and urbanization activities. It has health consequences when it reaches the human diet through the soil, water, and plant. ... -
Cadmium: An Emerging Role in Adipose Tissue Dysfunction
( Springer , 2021 , Article Review)Cadmium (Cd) is a toxic heavy metal that is widespread in the environment due to the substantial anthropogenic inputs from the agriculture and industrial sectors. The toxic impact of Cd adversely affects human health and ... -
Thiostrepton inhibits growth and induces apoptosis by targeting FoxM1/SKP2/MTH1 axis in B-precursor acute lymphoblastic leukemia cells
( Taylor and Francis Group , 2021 , Article)Forkhead box M1 (FoxM1) is a transcription factor that plays an important role in the etiology of many cancers, however, its role has not been elucidated in B-precursor acute lymphoblastic leukemia (B-pre-ALL). In the ... -
Tumor microenvironment: an evil nexus promoting aggressive head and neck squamous cell carcinoma and avenue for targeted therapy.
( Springer Nature , 2021 , Article Review)Head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) is a very aggressive disease with a poor prognosis for advanced-stage tumors. Recent clinical, genomic, and cellular studies have revealed the highly heterogeneous and ... -
Insights Into the Role of CircRNAs: Biogenesis, Characterization, Functional, and Clinical Impact in Human Malignancies
( Frontiers Media , 2021 , Article Review)Circular RNAs (circRNAs) are an evolutionarily conserved novel class of non-coding endogenous RNAs (ncRNAs) found in the eukaryotic transcriptome, originally believed to be aberrant RNA splicing by-products with decreased ... -
miRNAs as novel immunoregulators in cancer
( Elsevier , 2021 , Article Review)The immune system is a well-known vital regulator of tumor growth, and one of the main hallmarks of cancer is evading the immune system. Immune system deregulation can lead to immune surveillance evasion, sustained cancer ... -
Chemokine-cytokine networks in the head and neck tumor microenvironment
( MDPI , 2021 , Article Review)Head and neck squamous cell carcinomas (HNSCCs) are aggressive diseases with a dismal patient prognosis. Despite significant advances in treatment modalities, the five-year survival rate in patients with HNSCC has improved ... -
Genetic variations influence brain changes in patients with attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder
