Download or read book Novel Anticancer Agents written by Alex A. Adjei and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2011-04-28 with total page 478 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Novel Anticancer Agents offers pertinent basic science information on strategies used for the rational design and discovery of novel anticancer agents, and, in addition, translational studies involving clinical trial design and execution with these novel, mostly cytostatic agents. This book covers basic science strategies that are being used in drug discovery and preclinical evaluation focused on novel molecular targets, as well as clinical trial methodology including clinical pharmacokinetics and imaging to address issues of efficacy evaluation of the new, relatively non-cytotoxic anticancer agents. At present, there is no book that provides such an integration of basic and clinical studies of novel anticancer agents, covering both drug discovery and translational research extensively. Addresses the critical issues involved in the development of novel agents for cancer therapy by experts in the field Presents drug discovery strategies Discusses regulatory issues surrounding drug development

Book excerpt: This book is a printed edition of the Special Issue entitled “Anticancer Agents: Design, Synthesis and Evaluation” that was published in Molecules. Two review articles and thirty research papers are included in the Special Issue. Three second-generation androgen receptor antagonists that have been approved by the U.S. FDA for the treatment of prostate cancer have been reviewed. Identification of mimics of protein partners as protein-protein interaction inhibitors via virtual screening has been summarized and discussed. Anticancer agents targeting various protein targets, including IGF-1R, Src, protein kinase, aromatase, HDAC, PARP, Toll-Like receptor, c-Met, PI3Kdelta, topoisomerase II, p53, and indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase, have been explored. The analogs of three well-known tubulin-interacting natural products, paclitaxel, zampanolide, and colchicine, have been designed, synthesized, and evaluated. Several anticancer agents representing diverse chemical scaffolds were assessed in different kinds of cancer cell models. The capability of some anticancer agents to overcome the resistance to currently available drugs was also studied. In addition to looking into the in vitro ability of the anticancer agents to inhibit cancer cell proliferation, apoptosis, and cell cycle, in vivo antitumor efficacy in animal models and DFT were also investigated in some papers.

Download or read book Novel Anticancer Drug Protocols written by John K. Buolamwini and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2008-02-01 with total page 349 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We are in an exciting era in the war against cancer, with real prospects for novel anticancer drugs that are cancer cell-specific without the toxicities that have been the hallmark of conventional cytotoxic cancer chemotherapy. Advances in cancer cell biology fueled by the molecular biology revolution have resulted in the uncovering of many novel potential molecular targets for cancer therapy. New anticancer drug discovery and development is now largely focused on exploiting these new molecular targets, which encompass oncogenes, tumor s- pressor genes, and their gene products, as well as targets involved in tumor angiogenesis, metastasis, survival, and longevity mechanisms. Exploitation of some of these targets has already yielded fruits and introduced new paradigms of molecularly targeted cancer therapy into the clinic, namely, protein kinase in- bition by antibodies or small molecules, exemplified by Herceptin® (trastuzumab), a humanized antibody targeted against the HER-2 growth factor receptor tyrosine kinase for the treatment of metastatic breast cancer; and Gleevec, a small molecule bcr-abl kinase inhibitor for the treatment of chronic myel- enous leukemia.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This timely desk reference focuses on marine-derived bioactive substances which have biological, medical and industrial applications. The medicinal value of these marine natural products are assessed and discussed. Their function as a new and important resource in novel, anticancer drug discovery research is also presented in international contributions from several research groups. For example, the potential role of Spongistatin, Apratoxin A, Eribulin mesylate, phlorotannins, fucoidan, as anticancer agents is explained. The mechanism of action of bioactive compounds present in marine algae, bacteria, fungus, sponges, seaweeds and other marine animals and plants are illustrated via several mechanisms. In addition, this handbook lists various compounds that are active candidates in chemoprevention and their target actions. The handbook also places into context the demand for anticancer nutraceuticals and their use as potential anti-cancer pharmaceuticals and medicines. This study of advanced and future types of natural compounds from marine sources is written to facilitate the understanding of Biotechnology and its application to marine natural product drug discovery research.

Download or read book Studies on the Novel Anticancer Agents Metabolically Formed from 17 Beta Estradiol written by and published by . This book was released on 2003 with total page 6 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: By using NMR and mass spectrometric analyses, we determined the structures of Xl and X2, two representative nonpolar estrogen metabolites, which were metabolically formed following multiple large-scale incubations of 17 beta-estradiol with human CYP3A4 and NADPH. Both Xl and X2 were unequivocally identified to be the dimers of l7 beta-estradiol, connected together through a diaryl ether bond between a phenolic oxygen atom of one l7 beta-estradiol molecule and the 2- or 4-position aromatic carbon of another estrogen. This is the first report for a novel class of the nonpolar l7 beta-estradiol dimers that are formed from l7 beta- estradiol by human Cyp isoforms in the presence of NADPH as a cofactor.
Download or read book Novel Heterocyclic Scaffolds Having Anticancer Potential written by Kharb Rajeev and published by LAP Lambert Academic Publishing. This book was released on 2015-03-11 with total page 76 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cancer is a serious global health concern as it is a deadly disease being responsible for about 13% of total death tolls globally and at present, cancer is the second leading cause of death in the world after cardiovascular diseases as reported by WHO. Despite advances in cancer research, the overall survival of cancer patients remains low. Inherent and acquired resistance to treatment and the dose-limiting toxicity caused by the narrow therapeutic window of many anticancer drugs are recognized as obstacles for effective treatment of cancer. As per recent literature, it has been found that novel heterocyclic derivatives such as imidazole, triazole, thiazole, benzothiophene, coumarin, furan and isoxazole derivatives as anticancer drugs are lesser toxic, experience lesser resistance from cancerous cells and capable of targeting tumor DNA more specifically as compared to currently used anticancer drugs. Therefore, this communication is an endeavor to update the recent advances and development in the field of cancer research to develop novel anticancer agents for future having better safety and site specific receptors binding for effective treatment of cancer as a deadly disease.
