Andrea Janet D’Souza, JAIN (Deemed – to – be) University Cancer is a disease that occurs due to uncontrolled cell division and an imbalance between cell proliferation and cell death. Programmed cell death or apoptosis can be induced in cancer cells through intrinsic and extrinsic pathways by the use of Caspases. Loss of apoptotic property […]
Parnad Basu, Amity University Kolkata Lymphoma is a type of cancer that occurs in the human lymphatic system- the network that fights the body’s diseases. It includes the lymph nodes, bone marrow, spleen, and the thymus gland. There are mainly two major subtypes of lymphoma, Hodgkin’s lymphoma and non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma (NHL). Hodgkin’s lymphoma has Reed-Sternberg […]
Srabani Roy Chowdhury (MAKAUT, WB) HGSC or High-Grade Serous Ovarian Carcinoma is considered to be an aggressive type of ovarian cancer. Deleterious mutations present in the DNA repair gene RAD51C are drivers of defective homologous recombination in High-Grade Serous Ovarian Carcinoma (HGSC). These are emerging biomarkers of PARP inhibitor sensitivity. A PARP inhibitor is targeted […]
Thota Kanishka Rao, Amity University Kolkata Cancer is one of the most dangerous diseases causing the death of millions globally. 1 out of every 6 deaths, around 6,000 people each day. There is no single test that can precisely analyze malignancy. The total evaluation of a patient for the most part requires a thorough history […]
Thota Kanishka Rao, Amity University Kolkata Researchers have commenced on re-established investigations concerning androgen treatment – a precursory breast cancer treatment, as recent findings in mice have shown that it might help to restrict tumor development. In 2020, approximately 2 million people in the United States were diagnosed with this cancer. Around 15% of those […]
Richismita Hazra, Amity University Kolkata Cells often manifest reversible changes in their properties and phenotypes which is known as cellular plasticity. This is also termed lineage plasticity or lineage switching. Cancer cells use this phenomenon to adapt to stressful conditions and this leads to cancer progression. Neuroendocrine prostate cancer (NEPC) is an aggressive variant of […]
AISHILA KAR, AMITY UNIVERSITY KOLKATA Catalysts are extensively used in the production of chemicals and pharmaceutical products. They have the great significance of nanocatalysts in different areas of nanotechnology such as nanochemistry, nanopharmaceuticals, and nanomedicine. Also, developed for cancer treatment based on nanoparticles (NPs) which promote Fenton reaction have been widely used by scientists. Magnetic […]
Thota Kanishka Rao, Amity University Kolkata Cancer, one of the deadliest diseases, is characterized by abnormal cell growth with it’s potential to invade or spread to other parts of the body. Despite the therapeutic advances in treating cancer, it is still the major cause of death in developing countries. Chemotherapeutic resistance remains the main characteristic […]
Richismita Hazra, Amity University Kolkata Human Papillomavirus (HPV) related head and neck cancer is identified as a distinct tumor entity with an elevated incidence reported for several countries. These tumors arise from squamous cells, ordinarily in the oropharynx. In contrast to other risk factors that are associated with cancer, HPV related cancer is driven by […]
Rohit Bhattacharjee, Amity University Kolkata Although inhibition of T cell co-inhibitory receptors has brought about cancer therapy, mechanisms governing their expression on human T cells have not been explained. Type 1 interferon (IFN-I) regulates T cell immunity in viral infection, autoimmunity, cancer, and may enhance induction of T cell exhaustion in chronic viral infection. To […]
