6. Cisplatin : a platinum-containing antineoplastic drug : perspectives on analytical chemistry and prevention of ototoxicity
Sammanfattning : The platinum-containing drug cisplatin plays a key role in the curative and palliative treatment of many solid malignancies. Unfortunately, the treatment can lead to sensorineural hearing loss, which limits the use of the drug. LÄS MER
7. Signaling pathways and novel genetic factors involved in modulation of cisplatin response in C. elegans
Sammanfattning : Cancer is a major cause of mortality throughout the world. Despite the effort of the scientific community, plenty remains to understand about the biology or genetics of cancer. In solid tumors often as many as 90-99% of all cells are non-dividing. LÄS MER
8. Influence of cisplatin on RNA structure in solution Escherichia coli tRNA(Ala) and human Wnt-5a 3' UTR model system studies
Sammanfattning : RNA molecules in the cellular environment have several important functions. In many cases, proper RNA function is intimately linked to proper three-dimensional structure of the molecule. Thus, it seems reasonable to assume that structural changes caused by external influence can strongly inhibit important cellular functions maintained by RNAs. LÄS MER
9. Targeting Gb3 and apoptosis-related proteins to overcome cisplatin resistance
Sammanfattning : Background Cisplatin is used for treatment of malignant pleural mesothelioma (MPM) and non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) but treatment with cisplatin often leads to acquired resistance to cisplatin, resulting in poor patient survival. Globotriaosylceramide (Gb3) and multidrug resistance protein 1 (MDR1) have been associated with cisplatin resistance. LÄS MER
10. Manipulation of potassium ion fluxes to induce apoptosis in lung cancer cells
Sammanfattning : Apoptosis is a special form of cell death that if non-functional may lead to diseases such as cancer. A reduction of the intracellular potassium ion (K+) content is necessary for activating enzymes important for the execution of apoptosis. LÄS MER
