Using Alternating Electric Fields to Increase Cell Membrane Permeability

Certain substances (e.g., large molecules) that ordinarily cannot traverse the cell membrane of cells can be introduced into cells by applying an alternating electric field to the cell for a period of time, wherein the frequency of the alternating electric field is selected so that application of the alternating electric field increases permeability of the cell membrane. Once the permeability of the cell membrane has been increased, the substance is able to cross the cell membrane. This approach is particularly useful in the context of cancer cells (e.g., glioblastoma).

Anti-cancer activity of carvedilol and its isomers

InactiveUS6632832B1Inhibits COX activityPrevent and inhibit tumor growthBiocideArtificial cell constructsMelanomaProstate cancer
The present invention provides for pharmaceutical compositions comprising carvedilol for treatment of cancer. More particularly the invention relates to the use of carvedilol for treatment of cancers of the colon, ovary, breast, prostate, pancreas, lung, melanoma, glioblastoma, oral cancer and leukemias. Although not bound to any theory, the anticancer activity of carvedilol appears to be attributed to the inhibition of Epidermal Growth Factor and Platelet derived growth factor dependent proliferation of cancer cells. Further, carvedilol exerts anticancer effect by inhibition of the Protein kinase C (PKC) activity and that of the cyclooxygenase 2 enzyme. The invention also relates to the anticancer activity of the optically pure isomers S(-) and R(+) of carvedilol and the use of carvedilol and its isomers in pharmaceutical compositions for the treatment of cancer.< / PTEXT>

Identification method of primary central nervous system lymphoma and glioblastoma based on sparse representation system

The invention belongs to the technical field of computer auxiliary diagnosis, and specifically relates to an identification method of primary central nervous system lymphoma and glioblastoma based on a sparse representation system. The method includes: segmenting T1 enhanced and T2 weighted MRI image tumor regions by employing an image segmentation method based on a convolutional neural network; then designing a dictionary learning and sparse representation method, and extracting texture characteristics of the tumor regions; selecting some characteristics with high stability and high resolution for tumor identification by employing an iterative sparse representation characteristic selection method in order to reduce the characteristic redundancy and improve the tumor identification efficiency; and finally establishing a combined sparse representation classification model containing two modals of T1 enhanced or T2 weighted based on the thought of eigenstate fusion in order to improve the tumor identification precision. According to the method, high tumor identification precision can be obtained, manual operation for extraction of identification parameters is avoided, the robustness is high, and the method can be applied to clinic identification of primary central nervous system lymphoma and glioblastoma.

Recombinant poliovirus for the treatment of cancer

The present invention is directed to non-pathogenic, oncolytic, recombinant polioviruses for the treatment of various forms of malignant tumors. The recombinant polioviruses of the invention are those in which the internal ribosomal entry site (IRES) of the wild type poliovirus was exchanged with the IRES of other picornaviruses, and optionally P1, P3 or the 3'NTR thereof was exchanged with that of poliovirus Sabin type. More particularly, the present invention is directed to the administration of the non-pathogenic, oncolytic, recombinant poliovirus to the tumor directly, intrathecally or intravenously to cause tumor necrosis. The method of the present invention is particularly useful for the treatment of malignant tumors in various organs, such as: breast, colon, bronchial passage, epithelial lining of the gastrointestinal, upper respiratory and genito-urinary tracts, liver, prostate and the brain. Astounding remissions in experimental animals have been demonstrated for the treatment of malignant glioblastoma multiforme, an almost universally fatal neoplasm of the central nervous system.

Genetic alterations in isocitrate dehydrogenase and other genes in malignant glioma

We found mutations of the R132 residue of isocitrate dehydrogenase 1 (IDH1) in the majority of grade II and III astrocytomas and oligodendrogliomas as well as in glioblastomas that develop from these lower grade lesions. Those tumors without mutations in IDH1 often had mutations at the analogous R172 residue of the closely related IDH2 gene. These findings have important implications for the pathogenesis and diagnosis of malignant gliomas.

Viral vectors for gene therapy

Adenovirus types 11p and 4p show a higher binding affinity and infectivity than type 5 for endothelial and carcinoma cell lines. Adenovirus type 11p shows a stronger binding to cells for neural origin, such as glioblastoma, neuroblastoma and medulloblastoma. The fact that adenovirus type 11 has a comparatively low prevalence in society, together with its high affinity and infectivity, makes it very suitable for use in gene therapy.
