To further complicate the issue, breast cancer is a highly heterogeneous disease with different molecular subtypes as well. About 5-10% of breast cancers can […]
Transcription factor of p53 initiates apoptosis after receiving information about metabolic disorder or genetic damage, thus playing a critical role as tumor suppressor. p73 is a cousin of p53, shares lots of similarities with p53 including gene structure and amino acid level. Therefore, p73 is able to activate some p53 target genes by binding to […]

Specifically, these tumors are diffuse astrocytomas meaning that the tumor develops from astroglial cells of the brain stem. This tumor accounts for about 10%-20% of all brain tumors in […]
The author noted that constrain the 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl CoA reductase expression and stimulate apoptosis by diosgenin in human colon tumor cells and also diosgenin is a potent inhibitor of HCT-116 with growth inhibition and induction of apoptosis [39]. Diosgenin tempt apoptosis via Cyclooxygenase-2 and 5-lipoxygenase trail in HT-29 and HCT-116 [40]. The author described the initial […]
“For centuries, our benefactor, the Honey bee, has served a significant role in the life of humans. Honey bees have both fascinated and healed humans in a multitude of ways.

“In 1997, a Nature Biotechnology article reported how the advances made in genomics have been building a foundation for a future of personalized medicines where produced drugs are focused for the individual rather than the “average person.” Over the years in health related industries, personalized medicine has become a powerful term that brings forth a […]
Summary Despite the fact that Caucasian women in the United States have a higher incidence rate of breast cancer than any other racial group, African-Americans succumb notably worse to the disease and record the highest mortality rate. To comprehend the barriers and challenges that predispose African-American women to these disparities, this research was conducted to […]

“In ordinary tissues there is a harmony between the age of new cells by means of cell division and the loss of cells by means of cell demise. Old cells progress toward becoming harmed after some time and are wiped out. This is a basic type of recharging. Models incorporate shedding of skin cells and […]
The article under review examines the acceleration of inflammation and growth of prostate tumor metastasis in bone due to apoptosis-induced CXCL5. Tumor cell death, which can be increased by target therapies, causes immense efferocytosis to clear the apoptotic cells. It is thought that this can lead to accelerated tumor growth. The scope of this research […]

There are multiple phenotypes that are precursors to a child being diagnosed with ALL. B-cell precursor […]
Cancer is defined as “when the body’s cells begin to divide without stopping and spread into surrounding tissues.” (“What is cancer?”, 2017), caused by mutations that lead to the cell cycle to proceed, regardless if the cell is qualified to. The mutations block the use of the G1, G2, and M checkpoints in the cell […]
Breast cancer is a disease in which most commonly occurs in all women no matter their size, shape, race, or ethnicity. About one in eight women will be diagnosed with breast cancer every year, a fatal disease if not discovered early. Early detection of breast cancer is key so that cancerous cells found in the […]
