Protein-Based Cancer Signature
April 16, 2018The University of Basel’s Biozentrum research team has investigated the expression of ribosomal proteins in a range of human tissues, including tumors. They have discovered a cancer type specific signature and have reported this in Genome Biology. This cancer signature could potentially be used to predict the progression of the disease. As we learned in […]
New Suppressor Effects In Liver Cancer
April 11, 2018And the War On Cancer continues. Here are some results researchers discovered concerning tumor suppression. I’m sorry if this article may seem a little tough to read.

These findings were recently presented at UEG Week 2016, and mean that pancreatic cancer will become the third leading cause of death from cancer in the EU behind lung […]
Hyaluronic Acid May Not Be Good For Cancer
February 2, 2018It has be found that usually cancer drugs fail because they cannot penetrate the high-pressure environment of solid tumors. Biophysical Journal published a study that reveals large, naturally occurring molecule called hyaluronic acid is primarily responsible for generating elevated gel-fluid pressures in tumors. Treatment with an enzyme that breaks down hyaluronic acid normalized fluid pressure […]
Chemo and Alternative Medicine
February 1, 2018At last! A study that proves complementary and alternative medicine can work. Those women with early-stage breast cancer that had used dietary supplements and multiple types of complementary and alternative medicine (CAM), were less likely to start chemotherapy than nonusers of CAM, according to a new study that was published online by Jama Oncology. Despite […]
New Cancer Drugs-Little Effect On Survival
January 18, 2018Three cheers for Peter Wise! Finally someone is calling for better consent/education processes and better ethical treatment. Considerable amount of money is spent on cancer. There has been considerable investment and innovation in creating new cancer drugs that have been approved in the past 10 years. It has been found that these drugs have had […]
