    Further research is promising cancer treatment

    cancer treatment2 Further research is promising cancer treatment A protein that functions as a cancer drug for leadership in animal experiments has been developed by an international team that includes several researchers from the University of Western Australia.

    The natural protein is known to play an important role in promoting cell death (for example in mammary cells after the young are weaned), prevention of cell proliferation, promoting cell differentiation, and in this new discovery, by blocking the formation of blood vessels.

    The trial results, published in the American Journal of Pathology showed that the protein – related protein secreted curly 4 (sFRP4) – inhibits tumors in the same degree as a very successful antibody, Avastin ®.

    Winthrop Professor Arun Dharmaraj UWA School of Anatomy and Human Biology and UWA, said Anna University (AU), Chennai, India, holders of patents on the use of sFRP4 as angiogenesis inhibitor and are eager to find a trading partner for project.

    Research Assistant Professor Angela Ives at UWA Cancer and Palliative Care Research and Evaluation has shown that very little is known about gestational breast cancer (cancer diagnosed during pregnancy or even a year later.)

    “We decided to learn more to enable women to make informed decisions about your cancer treatment and pregnancy,” he said. With his colleagues, Associate Professor / Professor Yves analyzed statistics from Western Australia’s data link system – one of the few such systems in the world.
