Vaccination with transforming growth factor-beta insensitive dendritic cells suppresses pulmonary metastases of renal carcinoma in mice.

26 Nov 2008 Dendritic cells (DCs) have been widely used as cancer vaccines. However, their functional abilities have often been suppressed by tumor-secreted immunosuppressants such as transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-beta). We developed a new strategy ... Read more...

ApoG2, a novel inhibitor of antiapoptotic Bcl-2 family proteins, induces apoptosis and suppresses tumor growth in nasopharyngeal carcinoma xenografts.

13 Nov 2008 Nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) is a common malignant tumor in South China. It has been reported that overexpression of antiapoptotic Bcl-2 family proteins in NPC has caused the lack of long-term efficacy of conventional therapies. Apogossypolone ... Read more...

Targeting the methionine cycle for melanoma therapy with 3-O-(3,4,5-trimethoxybenzoyl)-(-)-epicatechin.

13 Nov 2008 The higher expression of methionine cycle genes in melanoma cells than in normal melanocytes may be related with increased protein synthesis and transmethylation reactions and the subsequent need for high levels of methionine. ... Read more...
