Breaking Ground in Cancer Research: Iron-Targeting Compounds Show Promise in Halting Cancer Cell Growth. Researchers at the University of Arizona Cancer Center unveil a potential game-changer.
Scientists unlock the potency of a potential natural cancer treatment through rigorous research and testing. By identifying and isolating bioactive compounds from natural sources, such as plants or marine organisms, researchers analyze their effects on cancer cells in the laboratory. Through preclinical studies and trials, they assess the compounds’ efficacy, safety, and mechanisms of action. […]
The new therapeutic approach in pleural mesothelioma involves targeting the tumor’s DNA repair mechanisms. By inhibiting specific DNA repair pathways, scientists aim to enhance the sensitivity of cancer cells to chemotherapy and radiotherapy. This approach disrupts the tumor’s ability to repair DNA damage caused by these treatments, potentially making them more effective against pleural mesothelioma. […]
Researchers have identified that cancer immunotherapy can lead to colitis due to the activation of the immune system. Certain immunotherapies, such as immune checkpoint inhibitors, boost the immune response against cancer cells but may also inadvertently target healthy cells, including those in the colon. This immune system activation can cause inflammation in the colon, resulting […]
