Cancer-causing Protein Can Also Help Fight The Tumors It Causes
New research uses the Ras protein to fight its own malign effects.
Novel Light-sensitive Compounds Show Promise For Cancer Therapy
Chemists have developed novel compounds that show promise for photodynamic cancer therapy, which uses light-activated drugs to kill tumor cells. The new compounds, called dye-sensitized ruthenium nitrosyls, are absorbed by cancer cells and respond to specific wavelengths of light by releasing nitric oxide, which triggers cell death.
HIV-related Death: Predicting Fatal Fungal Infections
Researchers have identified cells in blood that predict which HIV-positive individuals are most likely to develop deadly fungal meningitis, a major cause of HIV-related death. This form of meningitis affects more than 900,000 HIV-infected people globally--most of them in sub-Saharan Africa and other areas of the world where antiretroviral therapy for HIV is not available.

Dietary Fat Linked To Pancreatic Cancer
High intake of dietary fats from red meat and dairy products was associated with an increased risk of pancreatic cancer, according to a new study published online June 26 in the Journal of the National Cancer Institute. This study was undertaken because research relating fat intake to pancreatic cancer was inconclusive. To examine the association, Rachael Z. Stolzenberg-Solomon, Ph.D., of the Division of Cancer Epidemiology and Genetics at the National Cancer Institute in Bethesda, Md., and colleagues analyzed a cohort of over 500,000 people from the National Institutes of Health - AARP Diet and Health Study. Participants completed a food frequency questionnaire in 1995 and 1996 and were followed prospectively for an average of 6 year...
Low-Fat Diet May Help Avoid Liver Cancer
PHILADELPHIA -- Low-fat diet helps genetically predisposed animals avoid liver cancer, U.S. researchers found. In a study comparing two strains of mice -- one susceptible to developing cancer and the other not -- researchers found that a high-fat diet predisposed the cancer-susceptible strain to liver cancer. Researchers at the University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine and Case Western Reserve University found that by switching to a low-fat diet early in the experiment, the same high-risk mice avoided the cancer malignancy. The switched mice were lean rather than obese and had healthy livers at the end of the study. The investigators studied hepatocellular carcinoma, a type of liver cancer that is one of the le...
Calcium & Colorectal Cancer
People who consume more calcium and dairy foods have a lower risk of colon cancer, according to a study by the National Institutes of Health and AARP (formerly known as the American Association of Retired Persons). Investigators collected diet and other information on more than 500,000 people aged 50 to 71 . After seven years, the risk of colorectal cancer was about 20 percent lower in men who consumed the most calcium from food and supplements (roughly 1,500 milligrams a day) than in men who consumed the least (roughly 500 mg a day). The risk was about 30 percent lower in women who consumed the most calcium (roughly 1,900 mg a day) than in women who consumed the least (roughly 500 mg a day). Colorectal cancer risk was also lower i...

Study identifies how tamoxifen stimulates uterine cell growth and cancer
(University of California - San Francisco) University of California - San Francisco researchers have identified a new "feed-forward" pathway linking estrogen receptors in the membrane of the uterus to a process that increases local estrogen levels and promotes cell growth.
Prostate cancer patients disease free after 5 years likely to be disease free after 10 years
(American Society for Radiation Oncology) Prostate cancer patients who receive brachytherapy and remain free of disease for five years or greater are unlikely to have a recurrence at 10 years, according to a study in the July 1 issue of the International Journal of Radiation Oncology, Biology, Physics, the official journal of the American Society for Radiation Oncology.
Ben-Gurion U. researchers reveal connection between cancer and human evolution
(American Associates, Ben-Gurion University of the Negev) Researchers at Ben-Gurion University of the Negev have discovered that gene mutations that once helped humans survive may increase the possibility for diseases, including cancer. The findings were recently the cover story in the journal Genome Research.
Gene's novel role may provide key to treating liver and neurodegenerative diseases
(Agency for Science, Technology and Research (A*STAR), Singapore) Singapore scientists have made a novel discovery about how gene, "Fas-apoptosis inhibitory molecule", protects both immune and liver cells from programmed cell death. Their research is published in Cell Death and Differentiation.
