During the follow-up of a woman treated by radiotherapy for an in situ carcinoma of her left breast, radio-induced skin lesions were diagnosed. They appeared not to be simple radiodermatitis but radio-induced Sweet syndrome. Discussions were led on the benefit of completing the last session of
OBJECTIVE
We report a patient with chronic Sweet syndrome (SS) treated by anti-Tumor Necrosis Factor (TNF) therapy, who presented with a severe bilateral chemosis.
METHODS
Case report.
RESULTS
Conjunctival biopsy revealed an ocular localization of SS.
CONCLUSIONS
SS is a rare disorder that usually
This study investigated in vivo the antitumor activity of dark sweet cherry (DSC) whole extracted phenolics (WE) and fractions enriched in anthocyanins (ACN) or proanthocyanidins (PCA) in athymic mice xenografted with MDA-MB-453 breast cancer cells. Mice were gavaged with WE, ACN or PCA extracts
A bioassay-guided fractionation of an alcoholic extract from the peels of Ipomoea batatas Lam has been carried out. Sulforhodamine B and 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) assays were used to evaluate the anticancer and antioxidant potential, respectively, while silica gel column chromatography
Cancer, one of the most devastating degenerative diseases nowadays, is one of the main targets in Medicinal Chemistry and Pharmaceutical industry. Due to the significant increase in the incidence of cancer within world population, together with the complexity of such disease, featured with a
Carbohydrate signatures on tumor cells have functional implications in tumor growth and metastasis and constitute valuable tools in cancer diagnosis and immunotherapy. Increasing data regarding the mechanisms by which they are recognized by the immune system are facilitating the design of more
Bladder cancer (BC) is the most common malignant disease. The developing of economically sustainable and available agents for the treatment of BC is required. Purple sweet potato anthocyanin (PSPA) has been shown to have antitumor abilities. The present study aimed to evaluate the potential role of
Accumulating data suggest an important role of tumor metabolism during cancer development, metastasis, and therapeutic resistance. In Cell Metabolism, Cascone et al. (2018) show that increased tumor glycolysis suppresses anti-tumor immunity by impairing T cell killing and trafficking to the tumor
The MAP30 ribosomal inactivating protein structure has been determined by NMR spectroscopy. This anti-HIV and anti-cancer protein is an RNA and DNA glycosylase as well as a DNA apurinic/apyrimidinic (AP) lyase.
Three polysaccharides, PSPP1-1, PSPP2-1 and PSPP3-1, were isolated from purple sweet potato. The three polysaccharides belonged to β-type polysaccharides and contained low proportions of proteins and uronic acids. PSPP1-1 and PSPP3-1 with molecular weights of 33.3 and 75.3 kDa, respectively, were
OBJECTIVE
To investigate the effects of proteins purified from sweet potato storage roots on human colorectal cancer cell lines.
METHODS
3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay, Hoechst 33258 nuclear staining and Boyden transwell chamber methods were used to
OBJECTIVE
To isolate and purify components from polysaccharides of purple sweet potato (PPSP) and to test their anti-tumor activity.
METHODS
DEAE-Cellulose and CM-Cellulose exchange chromatography were applied to separate components of PPSP. The anti-tumor activities of each component were measured
OBJECTIVE
To investigate the anticancer activities of Chinese motherwort herb (Leonurus heterophyllus Sweet; LHS).
METHODS
Dried LHS was extracted and reconstituted in phosphate-buffered saline. The in vitro antiproliferation activities of the extract were tested against seven human cancer cell
Sweet potatoes are becoming a research focus in recent years due to their unique nutritional and functional properties. Bioactive carbohydrates, proteins, lipids, carotenoids, anthocyanins, conjugated phenolic acids, and minerals represent versatile nutrients in different parts (tubers, leaves,
Sialic acids represent a family of sugar molecules derived from neuraminic acid that frequently terminate glycan chains and contribute to many biological processes. Already five decades ago, aberrantly high expression of sialic acids has been proposed to protect cancer cells from recognition and
