It was concluded that omega-3 fatty acid could inhibit the proliferation of pancreatic cancer cell line SW1990 cells and promote their apoptosis. The down-regulation of the cyclin E expression by omega-3 fatty acid might be one of the mechanisms for its anti-tumor effect on pancreatic cancer. Modulatory effects of EPA and DHA on proliferation and apoptosis of pancreatic cancer cells. Zhang W, Long Y, Zhang J, Wang C. J Huazhong Univ Sci Technolog Med Sci. 2007 Oct;27(5):547-50. PMID: 18060632

Along with information technology, biotechnology is the greatest motivator for global economic development in the 21 century. It is maturing into the leading technology that may reshape the pattern of future industry as well as economy. Following up biotechnology's continuously building itself, antibody engineering, the main force of biotechnology industrialization, has earned itself an important place in this field, bio-pharmacy in particular.

Berberine and Coptidis rhizoma as novel antineoplastic agents: a review of traditional use and biomedical investigations. Tang J, Feng Y, Tsao S, Wang N, Curtain R, Wang Y. J Ethnopharmacol. 2009 Oct 29;126(1):5-17. Epub 2009 Aug 15. PMID: 19686830 doi:10.1016/j.jep.2009.08.009 Conclusions The modern evidences of treating cancer with Huanglian and berberine have a strong linkage with traditional concept and rules of using Huanglian in CM practice. As anticancer candidates with low toxicity, berberine and its altered structure, as well as Huanglian and its formulae, will attract scientists to pursue the potential anticancer effects and the mechanisms by using technologies of genomics, proteomics and other advanced approaches. On the other hand, relatively few in vivo studies have been conducted on anticancer effects of Huanglian and berberine. The clinical application of berberine or Huanglian as novel cancer therapeutic agents requires in vivo validations and further investigations of their anticancer mechanisms.

Newer and innovative medical technologies like laser ablations have proven safe and effective in treating patients with prostate cancer in India.

In situ hybridization (ISH) may not be a new phrase for today's Biological world. It has not been in this industry for long, but its promising future, without any doubt, is recognized by more biologists and institutions. In situ hybridization (ISH) is a technology being made up of combinations of molecular biology, histochemistry and cytology.

Based on the traditional methods and developed "database assisted shotgun sequencing" (DASS) technology, Creative Biolabs announces de novo antibody sequencing service for research, diagnostic and therapeutic industries.

Can sniffer dog detection take the place of traditional prostate cancer screening like immunized human antibody library ? It is still too early to draw a conclusion at present. Nobody knows how this sniffer dog detection technology can be applied to clinical use, or whether it can be widely promoted.

A new approach to cancer treatment called immunotherapy could spare patients at least some of the grueling battery of chemotherapy treatments by retraining the body's own defenders--the cells of the immune system--to recognize and destroy tumors. Now researchers at Harvard University have developed a simple way to do this inside the body: a polymer implant attracts and trains immune-system cells to go after cancer. The experimental approach has shown great success in animal studies, increasing the survival rate of mice with a deadly melanoma from 0 to 90 percent. The implant could also be used to treat diseases of the immune system such as arthritis and diabetes, and, potentially, to train other kinds of cells, including stem cells used to repair damage to the body.
