Chimeric RNAs in Cancer and Normal Physiology
Chimeric RNAs can be generated by not only chromosomal rearrangements at the DNA level, but also intergenic splicing at the RNA level. Chimeric RNAs are demonstrated to be not the elusive features of cancer cells, but also present in normal physiology and with diverse functions.

Transmissible Cancers – Quo Vaditis?
Cancers that kill are the paradigm that most people know, but there’s more to cancer than just that…
Combating KRAS Mutant Metastatic Colorectal Cancer
A new targeted chemotherapeutic nano-medicine NANOPt-pan, composed of Panitumumab and DACHPt (the active form of Oxaliplatin), could passively and actively target EGFR over-expressing tumors and effectively target both KRAS wild type- and mutant-tumors.
Improving Cancer Photothermal Therapy: A How-To
Cancer is a disease that is responsible for an overwhelming number of deaths worldwide. The conventional therapeutic approaches used for treatment can be ineffective. inducing prominent side effects.
Targeted Nanoparticles for Head and Neck Cancer
Nanoparticles can assist in treatment of Head and Neck Cancer patients by optimizing distribution of chemotherapy drugs for better outcomes and less side effects.
Nanomedicine Approaches to Improve Cancer Immunotherapy
A diverse range of nanomaterials with different physicochemical characteristics have been developed to stimulate the immune system and battle cancer.
