TL;DR: It is predicted that understanding the pathways that lead to the development of androgen-independent prostate cancer will pave the way to effective therapies for these, at present, untreatable cancers.

TL;DR: The findings raise the possibility that unsuspected estrogenic activity in the form of BPA may have an impact on experiments employing media autoclaved in polycarbonate flasks, and it remains to be determined whether BPA derived from consumer products manufactured from poly carbonate could significantly contribute to the pool of estrogenic substances in the environment.

TL;DR: Accumulating results from preclinical and some clinical studies strongly suggest that vitamin D deficiency increases the risk of developing cancer and that avoiding deficiency and adding vitamin D supplements might be an economical and safe way to reduce cancer incidence and improve cancer prognosis and outcome.

TL;DR: The tissue and channel-type specificity and the directness and slow reversibility of the block are features that favor use of omega-conotoxin as a tool for purifying particular neuronal Ca2+ channels and defining their physiological function.

TL;DR: The presence of specific, high-affinity receptors for 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 in malignant melanoma is demonstrated and the first demonstration of a 1, 25-(OH)2D3 mediated action on tumor cells is demonstrated.
