Epidemiology of Prostate Cancer

TL;DR: There is no evidence yet on how to prevent prostate cancer; however, it is possible to lower the risk by limiting high-fat foods, increasing the intake of vegetables and fruits and performing more exercise.
Journal ArticleDOI

VEGF targets the tumour cell

TL;DR: The function of vascular endothelial growth factor in cancer is not limited to angiogenesis and vascular permeability, and the neuropilins are crucial for mediating the effects of VEGF on tumour cells, primarily because of their ability to regulate the function and the trafficking of growth factor receptors and integrins.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Multifaceted Functions of Neutrophils

TL;DR: Primordial neutrophil functions are discussed, and more recent evidence that interactions between neutrophils and adaptive immune cells establish a feed-forward mechanism that amplifies pathologic inflammation is presented.
Journal ArticleDOI

Neutrophils support lung colonization of metastasis-initiating breast cancer cells

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that neutrophil-derived leukotrienes aid the colonization of distant tissues by selectively expanding the sub-pool of cancer cells that retain high tumorigenic potential and the efficacy of using targeted therapy against a specific tumour microenvironment component is revealed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Phenotypic diversity and plasticity in circulating neutrophil subpopulations in cancer.

TL;DR: This work has identified a heterogeneous subset of low-density neutrophils (LDNs) that appear transiently in self-resolving inflammation but accumulate continuously with cancer progression, providing a mechanistic explanation to mitigate the controversy surrounding neutrophil function in cancer.

Hallmarks of cancer: the next generation.

TL;DR: Recognition of the widespread applicability of these concepts will increasingly affect the development of new means to treat human cancer.
Journal ArticleDOI

Inflammation and cancer

TL;DR: It is now becoming clear that the tumour microenvironment, which is largely orchestrated by inflammatory cells, is an indispensable participant in the neoplastic process, fostering proliferation, survival and migration.

Cancer-related inflammation.

TL;DR: The molecular pathways of this cancer-related inflammation are now being unravelled, resulting in the identification of new target molecules that could lead to improved diagnosis and treatment.
Journal ArticleDOI

Monocyte and macrophage heterogeneity

TL;DR: Recent studies have shown that monocyte heterogeneity is conserved in humans and mice, allowing dissection of its functional relevance: the different monocyte subsets seem to reflect developmental stages with distinct physiological roles, such as recruitment to inflammatory lesions or entry to normal tissues.
