Graphene as Photothermal Therapeutic Agents
Light-assisted hyperthermic therapy is a promising strategy to treat cancer. Graphene and their derivatives with unique physiochemical properties,... -
Inhibiting NR5A2 targets stemness in pancreatic cancer by disrupting SOX2/MYC signaling and restoring chemosensitivity
BackgroundPancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is a profoundly aggressive and fatal cancer. One of the key factors defining its aggressiveness and...

Animal Models for Prostate Cancer Research: A Mechanistic Outlook on the Challenges and Recent Progress
Molecular pathogenesis of prostate cancer (PCa) still remains poorly understood in human. Difficulties in understanding of prostate oncogenesis and... -
Durvalumab with platinum-pemetrexed for unresectable pleural mesothelioma: survival, genomic and immunologic analyses from the phase 2 PrE0505 trial
Mesothelioma is a rare and fatal cancer with limited therapeutic options until the recent approval of combination immune checkpoint blockade. Here we...

Available Preclinical Tools for Neuroblastoma
Neuroblastoma is the most predominant and deadly cancer in infants and in young children and contributes significantly to childhood cancer deaths.... -
The role of m6A methylation in therapy resistance in cancer
Cancer therapy resistance is the main cause of cancer treatment failure. The mechanism of therapy resistance is a hot topic in epigenetics. As one of...

Hypoxia-Induced Stress Responses in Cancer and Cancer Stem Cells
Oxygen is highly critical for the survival of complex organisms and lack of oxygen (hypoxia) promotes stress and death of the organism. However,... -
Small extracellular vesicle TGF-β in cancer progression and immune evasion
Transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) is a well-known cytokine that controls various processes in normal physiology and disease context. Strong...
