We aimed to determine if the manner of introducing psychology services impacted patients' acceptance of services and to identify factors associated with acceptance and barriers to psychology utilization.
Methods
In this double‐blind randomized cross‐over...
Neuropilin (NRP)‐1 is a co‐receptor for vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF). Preclinical data suggest that blockade of NRP1 suppresses tumour growth by inhibiting angiogenesis, in addition to directly inhibiting tumour cell proliferation in certain models. A humanized monoclonal antibody to NRP1 is currently being evaluated as a potential anti‐cancer therapy in clinical trials. However, the...
Peptide YY (PYY) is a naturally occurring gut hormone with mostly inhibitory actions on multiple tissue targets. PYY has been identified in several carcinoid tumors and a decreased expression of PYY may be relevant to the development and progression of colon adenocarcinoma. Treatment with PYY decreases growth in pancreatic and breast tumors, most likely through a reduction in intracellular cAMP. In...
The Bcl-2 family includes a growing number of proteins that play an essential role in regulating apoptosis or programmed cell death. Members of this family display diverse biological functions and can either inhibit or promote cell death signals. Abnormal gene expression of some Bcl-2 family members such as Bcl-2 that inhibits apoptosis is found in a wide variety of human cancers and contributes to...
