Read more...   Instead of Fighting Breast Cancer, Immune Cell Promotes its Spread Wednesday, 22 April 2009 10:33 Researchers at the UC San Diego School of Medicine and the Moores UCSD Cancer Center have new evidence that a type of immune system cell thought to be part of the first line of defense against breast cancer may also help promote its spread. They have found that when these cells, known as lymphocytes, make an inflammatory protein called RANKL (RANK ligand), breast cancer is more likely to spread to the lungs. Read more...   Natural Protein May Halt Colorectal Cancer's Spread Wednesday, 22 April 2009 10:20 Medical College of Wisconsin Cancer Center researchers in Milwaukee have learned that a protein, CXCL12, that normally controls intestinal cell movement, has the potential to halt colorectal cancer spreading. These studies represent a potential mechanism by which CXL12 may slow cancer spreading. Controlling this process could lead to new biological therapies for colorectal cancers. Read more...   First Technique for Producing Promising Anti-leukemia Agent Developed Monday, 20 April 2009 10:09 Kapakahines, marine-derived natural products isolated from a South Pacific sponge in trace quantities, have shown anti-leukemia potential, but studies have been all but stalled by kapakahines' lack of availability. Read more...   Urine Test May Determine if a Smoker Is at Risk for Lung Cancer Monday, 20 April 2009 09:52 Researchers may have uncovered why lung cancer afflicts some smokers and not others, according to data presented at the American Association for Cancer Research 100th Annual Meeting 2009. Read more...   Possible Way to Block The Spread of Deadly Brain Tumors Discovered Monday, 20 April 2009 09:30 Researchers at the Translational Genomics Research Institute (TGen) may have found a way to stop the often-rapid spread of deadly brain tumors. Read more...   Upside-down World: DNA Protecting Protein Helps Cancer Drug to Kill Cells User Rating :  / 1 Wednesday, 29 April 2009 09:00 Some DNA repair enzymes can become double-edged swords – If they work too slowly, they can block necessary cell maintenance and contribute to cell death. This could explain the somewhat mysterious success of the widely used cancer drug 5-Fluorouracil (5FU) and help clinicians to predict patient's response to chemotherapy, according to new findings from the University of Basel, Switzerland. Read more...   Statins Alter Prostate Cancer Patients' PSA Levels Wednesday, 29 April 2009 08:53 Beyond lowering cholesterol, statin medications have been found to have numerous other health benefits, including lowering a healthy man's risk of developing advanced prostate cancer, as well as lowering his prostate-specific antigen (PSA) levels. Read more...   Early-stage Lung Cancer Identified Using Computer-aided System Monday, 27 April 2009 17:28 A computer-aided detection (CAD) method may help radiologists identify cancerous lung nodules at an early stage, according to a study performed at the University of Maryland Medical Center in Baltimore, MD. Read more...   Drinking Wine May Increase Survival among Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma Patients Friday, 24 April 2009 07:44 Pre-diagnostic wine consumption may reduce the risk of death and relapse among non-Hodgkin's lymphoma patients, according to an epidemiology study presented at the American Association for Cancer Research 100th Annual Meeting 2009. Read more...   Radiation Device in the Breast Reduces Complications for Early Stage Breast Cancer Patients Friday, 24 April 2009 07:38 A new study shows that the SAVI™ applicator, a small, expandable device inserted inside the breast to deliver partial breast irradiation, carries a low infection risk, a potential complication of such devices. The research, led by radiation oncologists and surgeons at the Moores UCSD Cancer Center and Fort Myers, Florida-based 21st Century Oncology, also indicates that other complications – such as seromas, pockets of fluid that build with the use of internal radiation devices – are unlikely to occur. Read more...   How P53 Mutations Link to High-grade Breast Cancer, Poor Outcomes Wednesday, 22 April 2009 10:24 In what is believed to be the largest study of its kind in the US, researchers have found that almost 26 percent of women studied who have breast cancer have mutations in a gene important in controlling cell growth and death, and that patients with mutations in this gene – known as p53 - had poorer outcomes including a significantly increased risk of death from the cancer. Read more...   Charred Meat May Increase Risk of Pancreatic Cancer Wednesday, 22 April 2009 07:56 Meat cooked at high temperatures to the point of burning and charring may increase the risk of pancreatic cancer, according to data presented at the American Association for Cancer Research 100th Annual Meeting 2009. Read more...   New Drug Achieves Pancreatic Cancer Tumor Remission and Prevents Recurrence Monday, 20 April 2009 10:05 Pancreatic cancer remains one of the deadliest cancers, but researchers may have found a combination therapy to reduce cancer stem cells and stop pancreatic cancer growth. Results will be presented at the American Association for Cancer Research 100th Annual Meeting 2009. Read more...   Herbal Extract Inhibits Development of Pancreatic Cancer Monday, 20 April 2009 09:35 An herb recently found to kill pancreatic cancer cells also appears to inhibit development of pancreatic cancer as a result of its anti-inflammatory properties, according to researchers from the Kimmel Cancer Center at Jefferson. The data were presented at the AACR 100th Annual Meeting 2009 in Denver. Read more...   Can EUS Elastography Help Distinguish Benign from Malignant Tissue? Friday, 17 April 2009 09:06 A major limitation of endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) examination is its limited capacity to determine the exact nature of a lesion. The differential diagnosis between benign and malignant lymph nodes and focal pancreatic masses based on the EUS appearance is difficult and frequently requires EUS-guided fine needle aspiration (EUS-FNA) for confirmation of malignancy.
