Blocking Receptor In Key Hormone Fires Up Enzyme To Kill Pancreatic Cancer Cells - Health News - redOrbit

redorbit.com — “Pancreatic cancer researchers at Thomas Jefferson University have shown, for the first time, that blocking a receptor of a key hormone in the renin-angiotensin system (RAS) reduces cancer cell growth by activating the enzyme AMPK to inhibit fatty acid synthase, the ingredients to support cell division.View full resource at redorbit.com

Potential new eye tumor treatment discovered

sciencedaily.com — “New research demonstrates that a specific small segment of RNA could play a key role in the growth of a type of malignant childhood eye tumor called retinoblastoma. The tumor is associated with mutations of a protein called Rb, which is also involved with other types of cancers, including lung, brain, breast and bone. Their work could result in a new therapeutic target.View full resource at sciencedaily.com

Key metabolic pathway implicated in intractable form of breast cancer

sciencedaily.com — “Using a new in vivo screening system, researchers have identified a protein in a key metabolic pathway that is essential in estrogen receptor (ER)-negative breast cancer. When the expression of the gene that codes for this protein -- phosphoglycerate dehydrogenase or PHGDH -- is suppressed in tumors and cell lines with an overabundance of the protein, the rate of cellular growth declines markedly. PHGDH is overexpressed in approximately 70 percent of ER-negative breast cancer patients.View full resource at sciencedaily.com
