Targeted Cancer Therapies

7.0K
The targeted cancer therapies, also known as “molecular targeted therapies,” take advantage of the molecular and genetic differences between the cancer cells and the normal cells. It needs a thorough understanding of the cancer cells to develop drugs that can target specific molecular aspects that drive the growth, progression, and spread of cancer cells without affecting the growth and survival of other normal cells in the body.
There are several types of targeted therapies against...

Cancer Therapies

8.1K
Cancer therapies are various modes of treatment, such as surgery, radiation therapy, and chemotherapy that are administered to cancer patients.
However, cancer treatments can pose several challenges, as therapies used to kill cancer cells are generally also toxic to normal cells. Moreover, cancer cells mutate rapidly and can develop resistance to chemical agents or radiation therapy. Besides, all types of cancer cells may not respond to the same therapy. Some cancer cells respond to one...

Treatment Resistant Cancers02:56

Treatment Resistant Cancers

2.6K
Cancer is the second leading cause of death in the United States. A cancer cell is genetically unstable and hence can mutate faster. They can also modify their microenvironment and escape immune surveillance. The difficulties in treating cancer are further compounded by the emergence of rapid resistance to anticancer drugs. The most common ways to attain resistance in cancer cells include alteration in drug transport and metabolism, modification of drug target, elevated DNA damage response, or...

Area of Science:

  • Oncology
  • Molecular Biology
  • Genetics

Background:

  • Osteosarcoma is an aggressive skeletal cancer with poorly understood etiology and pathogenesis.
  • Current therapeutic strategies face challenges in effectively treating osteosarcoma due to its complexity.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review recent molecular and mechanistic changes in osteosarcoma.
  • To identify potential new molecular targets for osteosarcoma treatment.

Main Methods:

  • Literature review of recent scientific publications.
  • Analysis of molecular and mechanistic alterations in osteosarcoma.

Main Results:

  • Identified key molecules involved in osteosarcoma progression, including altered oncogenes, tumor suppressor genes, and those affecting cell migration, invasion, angiogenesis, apoptosis, and proliferation.
  • Highlighted the role of microRNAs (miRNAs) and molecules influencing osteoclast function and multidrug resistance.

Conclusions:

  • Understanding these molecular alterations is crucial for developing targeted therapies.
  • Further research into these identified molecules will provide new insights for osteosarcoma treatment strategies.
