Cyclin-Dependent kinases (CDKs) function in mitosis by allowing the cycle to progress from one stage to another due to their properties as a family of protein kinases. Because of this function, abnormalities with CDKs can lead to uncontrolled cell division, leading to diseases such as cancer. Breast cancer is one form of cancer in which CDKs are a prevalent area of study. The role CDKs play in controlling and coordinating cell division makes it an important process to understand in breast cancer and, specifically, the metastasis of breast cancer. Lack of controlled CDK function could allow the cancer to spread to other parts of the body, leading to metastasis. Inhibiting CDK activity is an area of interest in searching for ways to treat breast cancer, especially once it has spread to the point where tumors cannot be surgically removed. Investigating these pathways and the effects of CDK inhibition on breast cancer cells has revealed much on the reestablishment of cell cycle control, which consequently leads to control of the cancer. This could be an effective form of non-localized treatment against metastatic cancer that is able to target specific cells throughout the body.

Recent Advances in the Therapeutic Approaches of Glioblastoma Multiforme_Crimson Publishers

  Recent Advances in the Therapeutic Approaches of Glioblastoma Multiforme by Siddharth Shah in  in Novel Approaches in Cancer Study Abstract Glioblastoma Multiforme (GBM, WHO grade IV) is one of the most aggressive, invasive, and lethal intracranial neoplasms, with a low post-diagnosis survival rate. Standard-of-care treatment regimens involving maximal surgical resection, radiotherapy, and genetic anti-tumor compounds like Temozolomide have only been marginally effective in improving overall survival and quality of life. Cell fusion, autophagy, and other complex biological processes affecting GBM pathophysiology are being studied to improve GBM treatment. This paper therefore focuses on oncolytic virus therapy combined with surgical resection, photodynamic therapy, and novel gene therapy, demonstrating how GBM treatment for patients could result in immediate and authentic tumor cytotoxicity and removal, rather than treatment of recurrent GBM. Standard therapy for GBM,...

Release of Inorganic Phosphate into the Tumor Environment: Possible Roles of Ecto- Nucleotidases and Ecto-Phosphatases

Abstract Inorganic phosphate (Pi) is essential for several biochemical reaction. Serum Pi is maintained at relatively narrow range concentrations, between 0.7 and 1.55mM. Tumor microenvironment presents a high Pi concentration (1.8±0.2mM Pi) and this could be associated wi the rapid growth in the “Growth Rate Hypothesis”. Several studies have identified high expression of Pi transporters in various tumor tissues. Similarly, ecto-enzymes (like ecto-nucleotidases or ecto- phosphates) act by dephosphorylating phosphosubstrates in the extracellular environment, and its high expression has been observed in various types of cancer. Little is known about the function of these ecto-enzymes on Pi releasing and accumulation in the tumor environment. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to correlate a possible contribution of the Pi release in the tumor microenvironment by ecto-nucleotidases and ecto-phosphatases, concomitant to the regulation of Pi extracellular pool by specific Pi...
