Tumor Growth Dynamics: Dietary Fish Oil Induced Inhibition of Human Breast Carcinoma Growth, A Phenomenon of Reduced Cellular DNA Synthesis or Increased Cell Loss?

Jul 2017 DOI 10.14302/issn.2639-1716.jn-17-1495
Michael J GonzalezCorresponding author

Diets high in unsaturated fatty acids, especially those containing high levels of linoleic acid, e.g., corn oil, enhance mammary gland tumorigenesis in experimental animals. In contrast, diets high in long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids such as eicosapentaenoic (EPA) and docosahexaenoic (DHA), e.…

Combination of Radiation Therapy and Immunotherapy in the Treatment of Melanoma

Apr 2017 DOI 10.14302/issn.2372-6601.jhor-17-1463
Sylwia SzablewskaCorresponding author

Melanoma is considered to be a very aggressive cancer due to its rapid growth, early and multiple metastases and limited response to standard treatment. Many researchers have hypothesized that the combination of radiation therapy and immunotherapy in the treatment of melanoma primary tumors and meta…

Evidence that N-acetylaspartylglutamate is the Astrocyte-Targeted Neurovascular Coupling Agent that Regulates Slow Tonic Control of Brain Blood Flow

Jun 2016 DOI 10.14302/issn.2572-5424.jgm-16-1028
Morris H BaslowCorresponding author

N-acetylaspartylglutamate (NAAG) is the highest concentration dipeptide present in brain. It is found primarily in neurons but its function is unclear. NAAG is synthesized by neurons from N-acetylaspartate and glutamate (Glu), maintained at mM concentrations and is released non-synaptically to extra…

The Effect of Medical Theraphy on Plasma Homocysteine Levels and Carotid Intima-Media Thickness in Parkinson's Disease

May 2016 DOI 10.14302/issn.2470-5020.jnrt-15-908
Yasemin KayaCorresponding author

Objective: We aimed to investigate homocysteine levels and carotid intima-media thickness (CIMT) in Parkinson’s Disease (PD), to determine relationship of these parameters and as well as to determine whether CIMT in patients with PD was associated to age, disease duration, age of disease onset, stag…

Acute Bilateral Hydro Nephrosis after the Use of Dapagliflozin

Feb 2016 DOI 10.14302/issn.2574-4488.jna-15-712
Bassam BerniehCorresponding author

Background Dapagliflozin; the new oral hypoglycemic agent; is a sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 (SGLT2) inhibitor that acts by inhibiting glucose reabsorption in the proximal tubule of the nephron. Main reported side effects are osmotic diuresis, dehydration, urinary tract and genital infections. Her…

Erlotinib Associated Trichomegaly in a Patient with Chronic Latanoprost Use

Aug 2015 DOI 10.14302/issn.2372-6601.jhor-15-667
CL Cowan JrCorresponding author

Trichomegaly is a known adverse effect with the epidermal growth factor receptor inhibitor (EGFRI) and prostaglandin analogue drug classes. We present a chronic Latanoprost user who developed symptomatic trichomegaly subsequent to initiating an EGFRI medication and believe this case offers evidence…

Current Status of Nonsteroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drugs in Colorectal Cancer Prevention

Jan 2015 DOI 10.14302/issn.2471-7061.jcrc-14-394
Petros C. PapagiorgisCorresponding author

This review synthesizes evidence on NSAIDs and colorectal cancer prevention. It balances chemopreventive efficacy against gastrointestinal and cardiovascular risks, and considers selective COX‑2 inhibitors, dosing, and candidate populations for risk‑benefit.

Evaluating the Efficacy of Gene Silencing in Dopaminergic Neuronal Cells In-Vitro using Gold Nanorods (GNR) with Different Surface Properties Complexed to DARPP-32 siRNA.

Jan 2014 DOI 10.14302/issn.2328-0182.japst-12-183
Supriya D. MahajanCorresponding author

Gold nanorods (GNRs) are plasmonic nanostructures by virtue of their size-dependent optical properties, offer a bionanotechnology platform in areas of bioimaging, drug delivery etc for disease diagnosis, prognosis, and therapy. GNRs are more sensitive to changes in local environments, and offer stro…

Hospital Episodes Due to Antidepressant Overdose: An Under-Utilised Source of Pharmacovigilance Data

Nov 2013 DOI 10.14302/issn.2328-0182.japst-13-185
WS WaringCorresponding author Acute Medical Unit, York Hospital, York, UK

Background: Antidepressant agents are commonly implicated in drug overdose, and the toxicological profile varies between agents. Clinical data concerning overdoses are not systematically sought or evaluated in pharmacovigilance. The present study sought to examine the feasibility of collecting Emerg…

Determination of the Proteomic Response to Lapatinib Treatment using a Comprehensive and Reproducible Ion-Current-Based Proteomics Strategy

Sep 2013 DOI 10.14302/issn.2326-0793.jpgr-13-257
Kathleen O’ConnellCorresponding author

Lapatinib, a small molecule tyrosine kinase inhibitor is currently used in the treatment of HER2-positive breast cancer. The aim of this study was to further understanding of lapatinib response for the development of novel treatment lapatinib-focussed treatment strategies. HER2-overexpressing SKBR3…
