ELECTRIC PULSES USED IN ELECTROCHEMOTHERAPY AND ELECTROGENE THERAPY DO NOT SIGNIFICANTLY CHANGE THE EXPRESSION PROFILE OF GENES INVOLVED IN THE DEVELOPMENT OF CANCER IN MALIGNANT MELANOMA CELLS

Electric pulses used in electrochemotherapy and electrogene therapy do not significantly change the expression profile of genes involved in the development of cancer in malignant melanoma cells

Abstract Background Electroporation is a versatile method for in vitro or in vivo delivery of different molecules into cells.However, no study so far has analysed the effects of electric pulses used in electrochemotherapy (ECT pulses) or electric pulses used in electrogene therapy (EGT pulses) on malignant cells.We studied the effect of ECT and EGT

pH-responsive targeted nanoparticles release ERK-inhibitor in the hypoxic zone and sensitize free gemcitabine in mutant K-Ras-addicted pancreatic cancer cells and mouse model.

Therapeutic options for managing Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC), one of the deadliest types of aggressive malignancies, are limited and disappointing.Therefore, despite suboptimal nitrile gloves in a bucket clinical effects, gemcitabine (GEM) remains the first-line chemotherapeutic drug in the clinic for PDAC treatment.The therapeutic limi
