Primary tamoxifen therapy has been widely used to treat elderly women with ER-positive breast cancer in the past. Aromatase inhibitors may be more beneficial than tamoxifen when used as primary endocrine therapy in elderly patients. We aimed to retro...

Proteomic (antibody microarray) exploration of the molecular mechanism of action of the specific COX-2 inhibitor DuP 697. International Journal of Oncology, 42(3), 1088-1092. https://doi.org/10.3892/ijo.2013.1784

We have previously shown that specific COX-2 inhibitors, including DuP 697, have anti-proliferative effects on mesothelioma cells and potentiate the cytotoxicity of pemetrexed. Here, we used a novel proteomic approach to explore the mechanism of acti...

Malignant pleural mesothelioma is associated with poor prognosis and despite recent advances in chemotherapy, the median survival is still approximately 12 months. Loss of phosphatase and tensin homolog (PTEN) protein expression may lead to constitut... Read More about PTEN protein expression in malignant pleural mesothelioma.
