Newly identified tumor suppressor provides therapeutic target for prostate cancer

Researchers have found that the enzyme PKCzeta controls the activation of a pro-tumor gene called c-Myc. Normally, PKCzeta’s alteration keeps c-Myc in check. But PKCzeta levels are low in prostate and other cancers, leaving c-Myc free to enhance cell growth and metastasis.

Sodium Bicarbonate and Cancer Treatment – Mark Sircus, Ac., OMD

I recommend people contemplating using sodium bicarbonate orally read Sodium Bicarbonate Rich Mans Poor Mans Cancer Treatment. People around the world are waking up to the fact that sodium bicarbonate belongs in every protocol for cancer. Robert J. Gillies and his colleagues have demonstrated that pre-treatment of mice with sodium bicarbonate results in the alkalinization of the area around tumors. (Raghunand 2003) This type of treatment has been found to enhance the anti-tumor activity of other anticancer drugs. sodiumbicarbonate.imva.info

Marrying Genome-wide And Proteome-wide Screening Helps Determine Susceptibility In A Wide Variety Of Diseases

For the first time, scientists have combined genomic and proteomic analysis of blood plasma to enhance identification of genetically regulated protein traits. This could be applied to any large association study of civilization diseases where blood plasma has been collected, vastly improving a clinician’s ability to identify disease susceptibility in individuals and populations…

Opiates already in body may encourage cancer growth, certain medications could slow it

A new study has shown that, even without the addition of further opioids such as morphine, opioids already in the body can enhance the malignant tendencies of human cancer cells.

NASA investigates proton radiation effects on cells

A team of researchers has found radiation from protons could further enhance a process that occurs during tumor progression. This information may help lead to better methods to protect astronauts from the harmful effects of radiation in space, as well as help cancer researchers on Earth better understand the effects of radiation treatment on the human body.

New combo of chemo and well-known malaria drug delivers double punch to tumors

Blocking autophagy — the process of “self-eating” within cells — is turning out to be a viable way to enhance the effectiveness of a wide variety of cancer treatments. Specifically, blocking the action of an acidic inner cell part, which acts like a stomach and chews up proteins for recycling, is the main attack strategy.

Researchers Test Nanoscale Carbon Clusters For Chemotherapy

A mixture of current drugs and carbon nanoparticles shows potential to enhance treatment for head-and-neck cancers, especially when combined with radiation therapy, according to new research by Rice University and the University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center. The work blazes a path for further research into therapy customized to the needs of individual patients…
