Monika R, PSG College of Technology, Coimbatore Melanoma is a deadly skin cancer that is said to occur mainly because of the accumulation of mutations in growth-regulating genes, the loss of adhesion receptors, and the increase in autocrine and paracrine growth factors- all of which contribute to uncontrolled proliferation promoting the survival of those abnormal […]
Sayak Banerjee, Amity University Kolkata Intra-tumor Heterogeneity ( ITH) Aggregation of a distinct set of somatic mutations leads to the generation of tumors. The set of mutations assembled by the prime tumor is known as clonal and the mutations which take place in pre-existing tumors comprise cancer cell sub-populations is known as subclonal. Consequently, the […]
Sapataparna Dasgupta, Bennett University Little study has been done on nanoparticles as biocompatible drug delivery carriers. Cancer, being the most lethal disease and the greatest cause of death worldwide, emerges as the most researched disease in the current scenario. Amongst cancer, breast cancer stands to be the leading cause of death for women all over […]
Prama Ghosh, Amity University Kolkata Recent studies have shown that tumor invasion and progression are enhanced by the interaction of tumor cells with the surrounding tissues. To study the same, molecular microarray analyses of human Gastric cancer cell lines NUGC-3 co-cultured with platelets for 48 h were performed. Functional analyses of the interaction between NUGC-3 […]
