Journal ArticleDOI

Targeting cancer cells by ROS-mediated mechanisms: a radical therapeutic approach?

TL;DR: It is argued that modulating the unique redox regulatory mechanisms of cancer cells might be an effective strategy to eliminate these cells.
Journal ArticleDOI

Safety and Pharmacokinetics of Escalated Doses of Weekly Intravenous Infusion of CCI-779, a Novel mTOR Inhibitor, in Patients With Cancer

TL;DR: CCI-779 displayed no immunosuppressive effects with manageable and reversible adverse events at doses up to 220 mg/m(2), the highest dose tested and not based on classical definitions of maximum-tolerated dose is being tested in phase II trials in patients with breast and renal cancer.
Journal Article

Controlling Tumor Growth by Modulating Endogenous Production of Reactive Oxygen Species

TL;DR: In conclusion, antioxidant molecules may have opposite effects on tumor growth as SOD mimics can act in synergy with cytotoxic drugs to treat colon and liver cancers and reactive oxygen species can promote normal cellular proliferation and carcinogenesis.
Journal ArticleDOI

Novel Action of Paclitaxel against Cancer Cells: Bystander Effect Mediated by Reactive Oxygen Species

TL;DR: This study revealed a novel mechanism by which paclitaxel induces toxic bystander effect through generation of extracellular H(2)O( 2) from the membrane-associated NOX, which may contribute to the potent anticancer activity of pac litaxel and provide a novel basis to improve the clinical use of this important drug.
Journal ArticleDOI

Accumulation of hydrogen peroxide is an early and crucial step for paclitaxel-induced cancer cell death both in vitro and in vivo.

TL;DR: The accumulation of H2O2 is an early and crucial step for paclitaxel‐induced cancer cell death before the commitment of the cells into apoptosis, suggesting that ROS participate in vitro and in vivo to pac litaxel cytotoxicity.
