Resveratrol in Experimental Models and Humans
2018
Abstract The search for natural compounds with beneficial activity for health has been one of the great challenges since men are aware of their survival. Many elixirs and ointments have been tested as the possible treatment or remedy for diseases or even death. In traditional medicine, compounds with biological activities have been used in humans. Among them, resveratrol (RSV) is, currently, one of the most studied natural compounds by modern science. To study this polyphenol we have a series of very useful tools that allow us to investigate from molecular targets, to signaling pathways in which it is involved, as well as effects on pathologies and even health and longevity. In this chapter…
Humoral immunotherapy of multiple myeloma: perspectives and perplexities
2010
IMPORTANCE OF THE FIELDS Multiple myeloma (MM) is a hematological malignancy still remaining incurable despite the various therapies available, mainly because of the high fraction of refractory/relapsing cases. Therefore, the development of novel therapeutic approaches is urgently needed to overcome conventional treatment resistance. AREAS COVERED IN THIS REVIEW: In the era of targeted therapies, treatments combining a high specificity for neoplastic cells and the capability to interfere with environmental signals should be regarded as the weapons of choice. Monoclonal antibody (mAb)-based humoral immunotherapy could satisfy both these requirements when applied to MM. Indeed, many of the mo…
New prognostic markers in neuroblastoma
2013
Introduction: The hallmark of neuroblastoma is its clinical and biological heterogeneity, with the likelihood of cure varying widely according to age at diagnosis, extent of disease and tumor biology. We hope this review will be useful for understanding part of the unfamiliar neuroblastoma codex. Areas covered: In the first part of this review, the authors summarize the currently used prognostic factors for risk-adapted therapy, with the focus on clinical management of neuroblastoma patients. In the second part, the authors discuss the evolving prognostic factors for future treatment schemes. A search of online medical research databases was undertaken focusing especially on literature publ…
