The researches find that the scientists named this newly discovered variability “functional mosaicism,” and it has significant implications for the development of therapy treatments, which are often designed to target a specific molecule, or a gene that produces a specific molecule. By showing that individual cells within the same tissue can use different molecules to carry out…
The study find that the five scientists have won prestigious medical awards for creating an innovative breast cancer treatment and discovering key players of the disease-fighting immune system. They will share two $250,000 awards from the Lasker Foundation’ to be present later this month in New York; the foundation announced Tuesday. One prize honors the…
The researches find that the allergic to peanuts may have a new way to protect themselves from severe allergic reactions to accidental peanut exposure. Therefore It’s call sublingual immunotherapy or SLIT and it involves putting a miniscule amount of liquefy peanut protein under the tongue; where it is absorb immediately into the blood stream to…
The researches find that the based on prognostic markers, including allelic status of chromosomes 1p and 11q, patients were initially assigned to receive two, four, or eight cycles of therapy with or without surgery; the ultimate duration of treatment was based on overall response. The researchers found that subsets of patients had a reduction in…
The researches find that the cancer treatment usually aims to eradicate the defective cells. When these cells are relatively small and isolate, they can be removed through surgery. Chemotherapy is sometimes then used to ensure the tiny cells that are left behind are destroyed completely. There are many types of cancer treatment. The types of…
The researches find that the cancer treatments can work in lots of different ways, aiming to kill tumor cells or keep them under control. Ideally they cause tumors to shrink, but drugs can also be considered successful if they stop tumors growing. But unfortunately, the effects don’t always last forever. Sometimes a drug can have…
The researchers find that the potential of causing irreversible tissue loss. The treatment of freezing cold injuries to the periphery has advanced substantially in the last 10 years. Optimal outcomes are only likely to be achieved if a multi-disciplinary team uses the full range of diagnostic and treatment approaches that are now available, said Chris…
The researches find that the Despite their toxicity, heavy metals have been used in medicine for hundreds of years and their importance as treatment options are undisputed. They have therapeutic applications across a range of indications, including microbial infections, ulcers; arthritis and they have proved especially valuable in the battle against cancer. Arsenic, antimony, gold,…
The researches find that a new combination therapy for breast cancer treatment leads to a lowered risk of the disease coming back. A commentary on this landmark clinical trial has been publish in the latest issue of the Journal of Clinical Oncology by the researchers Masey Ross and Charles Geyer Jr. from the VCU Massey Cancer Center.…
The role of exRNA is to carry information about cellular makeup. Therefore, the release of exRNA from tumor cells may offer important details such as tumor type and size. The new diagnostic platform will aim to separate nanoparticle carriers from their exRNAs and to identify the different carriers of exRNA, in order to decipher the…
The Oncologists at VCU Massey Cancer Center were invited to co-author an editorial published in the Journal of Clinical Oncologyproviding expert commentary on findings from a large study conducted by German investigators that a modified drug combination may lead to a decreased chance of disease recurrence for women with high risk, HER-2 negative breast cancer.…
The researches find that the Although this is early research in the lab, the findings suggest this approach could help to boost the effects of innovative cancer treatments, such as CAR-T therapy, which so far haven’t been used successfully to tackle solid tumors. Drs Francis Mussai and Carmela De Santo who are based at the…
