Combined treatment with and docetaxel inhibits breast cancer progression via targeting HIF-1α/VEGF mediated tumor angiogenesis in vivo.

Breast cancer is a challenging disease and leading cause of cancer death in women. There is no effective agent for metastatic breast cancer after surgery and chemotherapy. (A.

In silico design of a multi-epitope vaccine against HPV16/18.

Background: Cervical cancer is the fourth most common cancer affecting women and is caused by human Papillomavirus (HPV) infections that are sexually transmitted. There are currently commercially available prophylactic vaccines that have been shown to protect vaccinated individuals against HPV infections, however, these vaccines have no therapeutic effects for those who are previously infected with the virus. The current study's aim was to use immunoinformatics to develop a multi-epitope vaccine with therapeutic potential against cervical cancer.

A Comparative Study on Anticancer Effects of the and Extracts Alone and in Combination with Docetaxel on 4T1 Breast Cancer Cells.

Medicinal plants have long been studied due to their anticancer effects and use of them is commonly increased as a complementary and alternative medicine (CAM therapies) among patients with cancer. In this study, (A.m) and (A.

Medicinal plant compounds as promising inhibitors of coronavirus (COVID-19) main protease: an study.

The novel Coronavirus (COVID-19) has spread rapidly across the globe and has involved more than 215 countries and territories. Due to a lack of effective therapy or vaccine, urgent and concerted efforts are needed to identify therapeutic targets and medications. COVID-19 main protease represents a major target for drug treatment to inhibit viral function.

Design of a multi-epitope vaccine against SARS-CoV-2 using immunoinformatics approach.

Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) caused COVID-19 disease in China. So far, no vaccine has licensed to protect against infection with COVID-19, therefore an effective COVID-19 vaccine needed. The aim of this study was to predict antigenic peptides of SARS-CoV-2 for designing the COVID-19 vaccine using immunoinformatic analysis.

Synthetic biology in various cellular and molecular fields: applications, limitations, and perspective.

Synthetic biology breakthroughs have facilitated genetic circuit engineering to program cells through novel biological functions, dynamic gene expressions, as well as logic controls. SynBio can also participate in the rapid development of new treatments required for the human lifestyle. Moreover, these technologies are applied in the development of innovative therapeutic, diagnostic, as well as discovery-related methods within a wide range of cellular and molecular applications.

Diagnostic value of the candidate microRNAs in thyroid fine-needle aspiration biopsy (FNAB) samples.

Background Thyroid cancer (TC) is known to be the most common endocrine malignancy with an incidence rate which has increased by 2.3-fold over the past 30 years. Approximately, 30% of the thyroid fine-needle aspiration biopsy (FNAB) outcomes are indecisive.

Possible involvement of PI3K/AKT/mTOR signaling pathway in the protective effect of selegiline (deprenyl) against memory impairment following ischemia reperfusion in rat.

Short-term cerebral ischemia led to memory dysfunction. There is a pressing need to introduce effective agents to reduce complications of the ischemia. Involvement of PI3K/AKT/mTOR signaling pathway has been determined in the neuroprotective effect of various agents.

Long Non-Coding RNAs in Thyroid Cancer: Implications for Pathogenesis, Diagnosis, and Therapy.

Thyroid cancer is a rare malignancy and accounts for less than 1% of malignant neoplasms in humans; however, it is the most common cancer of the endocrine system and responsible for most deaths from endocrine cancer. Long non-coding (Lnc)RNAs are defined as non-coding transcripts that are more than 200 nucleotides in length. Their expression deregulation plays an important role in the progress of cancer.

Serum miRNAs as Biomarkers for the Diagnosis and Prognosis of Thyroid Cancer: A Comprehensive Review of the Literature.

Background/objectives: Thyroid cancer is the most common endocrine malignancy and accounts for 1% of cancers. In recent years, there has been much interest in the feasibility of using miRNAs or miRNA panels as biomarkers for the diagnosis of thyroid cancer. miRNAs are noncoding RNAs with 21-23 nucleotides that are highly conserved during evolution.
