Eribulin sensitivity was examined in a panel of twenty-five human cancer cell lines representing a variety of tumor types, with a preponderance of breast and lung cancer cell lines. As expected, the cell lines vary in sensitivity to eribulin at clinically relevant concentrations. To identify combination drugs capable of increasing anticancer effects in patients alread ...

Published On: March 10, 2015 | Pages: 005 - 006

Author(s): Massimo Bortolotti and Letizia Polito*

Non-Hodgkin's lymphomas (NHLs) are the second fastest growing cancer in terms of incidence and deaths in the United States and Europe. NHLs are a heterogeneous cancer group including several haematological neoplasias with different degree of aggressiveness. In spite of the progresses, conventional therapies do not ensure long-term survival [1]. The NHL patients, who h ...

Cisplatin is one of the most widely applied antineoplastic agents used to treat different types of solid tumours. However, its use is limited by serious side- effects including nephrotoxicity. Cisplatin accumulates in proximal tubule and forms nephrotoxins that causes proximal cell injury and thereby leads to nephrotoxicity. Cisplatin enters these proximal cells by or ...
