Glycoalkaloids are a class of naturally occurring compounds found in many plants, particularly those from the Solanaceae family, which includes the potato, tomato, eggplant and…
Cancer is a disease in which abnormal cells divide and grow in an uncontrolled way. These abnormal cells can form tumors and can spread to…
Melanoma is a type of skin cancer that develops in the cells (melanocytes) that produce pigment in the skin. It is a more aggressive form…
Clear cell renal carcinoma (CCRC) is a type of kidney cancer that is characterized by the presence of clear cells in the tumors. It is…
The study has two innovative aspects: the discovery of a new therapeutic target and the development of an effective nanocarrier for the selective delivery of…
The high conversion rate of curcumin prodrug TBP1901 to curcumin in bone marrow warrants its clinical application for diseases growing in the marrow like multiple…
The most successful targets for precision medicine can be found by using algorithms created by University of Michigan researchers. These algorithms successfully identify the weakest…
