Journal ArticleDOI

MicroRNA regulation of core apoptosis pathways in cancer

Raquel T. Lima, +6 more
- 01 Jan 2011 - 
TL;DR: The current knowledge in this area is reviewed, including evidence of miRNA involvement in cancer drug resistance, and many pro-apoptotic miRNAs target anti-APoptotic mRNAs or their positive regulators.
Journal ArticleDOI

Biomarkers for gastric cancer: prognostic, predictive or targets of therapy?

Cecília Durães, +7 more
- 01 Feb 2014 - 
TL;DR: Clinical approaches based on the combination of correct staging with targeted and conventional systemic therapies may improve gastric cancer patients’ outcome, but are only in their infancy.
Journal ArticleDOI

Radiation-induced transgenerational alterations in genome stability and DNA damage

Ruth C. Barber, +10 more
- 30 Nov 2006 - 
TL;DR: Transgenerational changes in mutation rates and DNA damage in the germline and somatic tissues of non-exposed first-generation offspring of irradiated inbred male CBA/Ca and BALB/c mice are analysed to provide important clues on the still unknown mechanisms of radiation-induced genomic instability.
Journal ArticleDOI

Extended treatment with physiologic concentrations of dietary phytochemicals results in altered gene expression, reduced growth, and apoptosis of cancer cells

Elena P. Moiseeva, +3 more
- 01 Nov 2007 - 
TL;DR: Curcumin, 3,3′-diindolylmethane (DIM), epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG), genistein, or indole-3-carbinol (I3C) was found to increase cell doubling time as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI
