Targeting compensatory proliferation signals in oral cancer by Loganathan Kavitha, Vijayashree Priyadharsini J, Anitha P, Paramasivam A

“…Carcinogenesis involves a state of disequilibrium between cell proliferation and cell death. The resistance to conventional therapeutic modalities of cancer, including surgery, radiotherapy, and chemotherapy, can be explained by the compensatory repair and regeneration that occurs in the tumor microenvironment following apoptosis through the apoptotic compensatory proliferation signaling microvesicles (ACPSVs) or apoptotic extracellular microvesicles (ApoEVs). …”

Determination of embryotoxic dose limit of detomidine with in-ovo model by Rahmi Canbar, Muhittin Uslu, Öznur Tufan, Enver Yazar

“…<p> <b>Conclusion:</b> Considering that the used smallest dose is 7.8 times higher than the highest recommended dose for the target species, recommended dose can be accepted safe in pregnant mammals for embryonic death. However, considering that the dose should be 100 times lower as a safety factor for mammals, it should be taken into account that negativities may also be observed.…”

The Role of Interferon Regulatory Factor-1 (IRF1) in Overcoming Antiestrogen Resistance in the Treatment of Breast Cancer by J. L. Schwartz, A. N. Shajahan, R. Clarke

“…Expression of IRF1 is downregulated in endocrine-resistant breast cancer cells, protecting these cells from IRF1-induced inhibition of proliferation and/or induction of cell death. Nonetheless, when IRF1 expression is induced following IFNγ treatment, antiestrogen sensitivity is restored by a process that includes the inhibition of prosurvival BCL2 family members and caspase activation. …”
