Amphiphilic block copolymers poly(ethylene glycol)-block-poly(methacrylic acid-co-2-nitroimidazole methacrylate) (PEG-b-P(MAA-co-NIMA)) were synthesized by the combination of atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP), hydrolysis and EDC reactions. ...
Oxidative stress plays a key role in pathophysiology of brain ischemia. This study aimed to test whether B. serrata hydroalcoholic extract (BSE) and its active constituent 3-acetyl-1 1-keto-β-boswellic acid (AKBA) could protect neurons against ischem...
Although transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) is the most widely used treatment for intermediate-stage, unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), it is only effective in a subset of patients. In this study, we combine clinical, radiological, and...
Glucose transporter-1 (GLUT-1) expression level is a biomarker of tumour hypoxia condition in immunohistochemistry (IHC)-stained images. Thus, the GLUT-1 scoring is a routine procedure currently employed for predicting tumour hypoxia markers in clini...
Gene expression regulation in hypoxic tumor microenvironments is mediated by O responsive transcription factors (OR-TFs), fine-tuning cancer cell metabolic demand for O according to its availability. Here, we discuss key OR-TFs and emerging artificia...
