Cancer Survival Analysis01:21

Cancer Survival Analysis

334
Cancer survival analysis focuses on quantifying and interpreting the time from a key starting point, such as diagnosis or the initiation of treatment, to a specific endpoint, such as remission or death. This analysis provides critical insights into treatment effectiveness and factors that influence patient outcomes, helping to shape clinical decisions and guide prognostic evaluations. A cornerstone of oncology research, survival analysis tackles the challenges of skewed, non-normally...

Mouse Models of Cancer Study02:43

Mouse Models of Cancer Study

5.5K
Mice have long served as models for studying human biology and pathology because of their phylogenetic and physiological similarity with humans. They are also easy to maintain and breed in the laboratory, and hence, many inbred strains are now available for research. Studies on mice have contributed immeasurably to our understanding of cancer biology.
The development of transgenic, knockout, and knock-in mice has led to an exponential increase in their use as model organisms in research,...

Cancer Vaccines01:30

Cancer Vaccines

347
Cancer treatment vaccines are a rapidly evolving field that offers a promising approach to immunotherapy. Unlike traditional vaccines that prevent diseases, cancer treatment vaccines are designed to treat existing cancers by stimulating the immune system to recognize and attack cancer cells.
Cancer vaccines come in two categories: preventive (prophylactic) and treatment (active). Preventive vaccines, such as the Human Papillomavirus (HPV) vaccine, protect against viruses that cause certain...

What is Cancer?

10.6K
Cells and tissues must meticulously coordinate their activities for the normal functioning of the human body. Therefore, they exhibit socially responsible behavior - resting, growing, dividing, differentiating, or dying - for the organism’s benefit. Cancer arises when cells divide uncontrollably and invade other tissues or organs.
Although people have known about cancer for centuries, it was only in 1761 that Giovanni Morgagni of Padua performed a detailed autopsy of...

Background:

  • Growing interest in wildlife neoplasia and cancer aligns with the One Health Approach.
  • Current research faces limitations in non-invasive cancer detection and species-specific susceptibility.
  • Studying cancer in non-model organisms is crucial for understanding disease dynamics.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To highlight the importance of studying cancer in non-model wildlife species.
  • To review existing methods for detecting and quantifying wildlife cancer.
  • To propose novel diagnostic approaches inspired by human medicine.

Main Methods:

  • Review of current non-invasive sampling techniques for wildlife cancer detection.
  • Analysis of methodological limitations in field-based cancer research.
  • Proposal for novel diagnostic strategies adapted from human medicine.

Main Results:

  • Identified significant methodological constraints in current wildlife cancer detection.
  • Highlighted the challenges posed by differential species susceptibility to cancer.
  • Outlined a framework for developing advanced, non-invasive diagnostic tools.

Conclusions:

  • Advancing non-invasive methods is essential for wildlife cancer research.
  • Understanding cancer variation and tumor suppression across species is key.
  • Research on wildlife cancer is critical due to anthropogenic environmental changes.
