Drugs May Help To Diagnose Undetectable Prostate Cancer

Aug 12, 2012

Researchers have successfully developed and tested a new prostate cancer screening method that uses the combined power of a novel drug therapy and changes in PSA levels over time to identify men with a high PSA who are more likely to have aggressive prostate cancer despite negative biopsies... Read More

Enhanced Anti-HIV Activity Discovered In Potential Drug Molecule

Aug 12, 2012

Researchers from Munich and Naples have shown that minimal modification of a synthetic peptide with anti-HIV activity results in a new compound with more than two orders of magnitude higher binding affinity to the chemokine receptor CXCR4 and greatly improved anti-HIV activity... Read More

Using Targeted Inhibition Of Sphingosine Kinase To Treat Drug Resistant Breast Cancer

Aug 12, 2012

Scientists at Tulane University School of Medicine, led by Dr. James Antoon and Dr. Barbara Beckman, have characterized two drugs targeting sphingosine kinase (SK), an enzyme involved in cancer growth and metastasis. New treatments specifically attacking cancer cells, but not normal ones, are critical in the fight against cancer... Read More
