Effects of tumor derived exosomes on T cells markers expression

Braz. j. biol; 84 (), 2024
Exosomes are 30-120nm bio particles transferred from donor to recipient cells leading to modification in their regulatory mechanisms depending upon the coded message in the form of loaded biomolecule. Cancer cells derived exosomes the true representatives of the parent cells have been found to modify the...

Stoichioproteomics study of differentially expressed proteins and pathways in head and neck cancer

Braz. j. biol; 83 (), 2023
Abstract Hypoxia is a prominent feature of head and neck cancer. However, the oxygen element characteristics of proteins and how they adapt to hypoxia microenvironments of head and neck cancer are still unknown. Human genome sequences and proteins expressed data of head and neck cancer were retrieved fro...

MicroRNAs and exosomes: promising new biomarkers in acute myeloid leukemias?

ABSTRACT Despite advances in understanding of carcinogenesis and of treatment of acute myeloid leukemia, this neoplasm still has a lethality of at least 30%. The search for biomarkers that can predict the response to treatment in the early stages of the disease is still necessary. In recent years, a new ...

Carcinogénesis Oral y Epigenética

A pesar de que los procesos epigenéticos son estudiados ampliamente de forma general, no se habían relacionado, hasta ahora, a las alteraciones genéticas más tradicionales asociadas en la etiopatogenia del cáncer oral. La visión de carcinogénesis tradicional y la de la epigenética convergen en la...

Brain Tumor Heterogeneity

Arq. bras. neurocir; 40 (3), 2021
Tumor heterogeneity is the concept that different tumor cells provide distinct biomorphological lesions, gene expressions, proliferation, microenvironment and graduated capacity of metastatic lesions. Brain tumor heterogeneity has been recently discussed about the interesting interaction of chronic infla...

Clinical utility of TGFB1 and its receptors (TGFBR1 and TGFBR2) in thyroid nodules: evaluation based on single nucleotide polymorphisms and mRNA analysis

ABSTRACT Objective: Abnormalities involving the TGFB1 gene and its receptors are common in several types of cancer and often related to tumor progression. We investigated the role of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) in the susceptibility to cancer, their impact on its features, as well as the role ...

Increased Expression of Type-I Collagen in Malignant Colorectal Lesion and Positive Correlations with Clinical Factors

Abstract Objective Type-I collagen (Col-I) is one of the main macromolecules of the extracellular matrix, and it is involved in the desmoplastic stromal reaction, an indicator of worse prognosis in cases of colorectal cancer (CRC). The purpose of the present study was to investigate Col-I expression in...

Avaliação do microambiente tumoral em adenocarcinomas gástricos a partir de dados de expressão gênica

O câncer gástrico (CG) tem grande importância clínica devido a suas altas taxas de incidência e mortalidade estando entre os cinco tipos de câncer mais frequentes no mundo. O CG encontra-se associado ao diagnóstico tardio, que, somado a agressividade da doença, resulta em sobrevida mediana curta....

Perfil de citocinas Th1, Th2, Th17 y otras citocinas pro inflamatorias (IL-1β, IL-6 y TNFα) en el plasma de pacientes con cáncer gástrico

El cáncer gástrico (CG) es la neoplasia del tubo digestivo más prevalente en el mundo, asociada a factores genéticos del hospedero y externos, como infección por Helicobacter pylori. La patogénesis incluye inflamación crónica mediada por citocinas del microambiente tumoral, detectables sistémica...

Human esophageal fibroblast-derived exosomal miR-21 reduced the cisplatin sensitivity to esophageal carcinoma EC9706 cells

Braz. j. med. biol. res; 54 (10), 2021
The objective of this study was to investigate the effect of human esophageal fibroblast-derived exosomal miR-21 on cisplatin sensitivity against esophageal squamous EC9706 cells. EC9706 cells were co-cultured indirectly with human esophageal fibroblasts (HEF) or miR-21 mimics transfected-HEF in the tran...
