Efficacy of red light for enhanced cell disruption and fluorescence intensity of phycocyanin

Sivaprakasam Sivasankari et al.

Summary: This study investigates the use of red LED and urea to enhance the production of phycocyanin in Spirulina, resulting in higher fluorescence properties and purity. Phycocyanin extracted from red-light grown cells exhibited strong antibacterial and antiproliferative activities, along with increased hydrogen peroxide scavenging activity compared to white light cultures.

Summary: Every year, the American Cancer Society projects the numbers of new cancer cases and deaths in the United States, with the latest data showing a significant decline in lung cancer mortality, while prostate cancer mortality has plateaued and breast and colorectal cancer mortality have slowed. Improvements in treatment have accelerated progress against lung cancer, leading to a record drop in overall cancer mortality.

C-Phycocyanin-a novel protein from Spirulina platensis- In vivo toxicity, antioxidant and immunomodulatory studies

Priyanka Grover et al.

Summary: C-Phycocyanin, a pigment-protein highly dominant in Spirulina, has been found to possess antioxidant and immunomodulatory activities in Balb/c mice without causing toxicity. The study suggests that C-Phycocyanin is safe for consumption and has significant antioxidant potential.

Aspects of the Epigenetic Regulation of EMT Related to Cancer Metastasis

Ewa Nowak et al.

Summary: Epithelial to mesenchymal transition (EMT) is a critical process in tumor progression that influences metastasis, characterized by loss of cell adhesion and polarity, and enhanced cell motility. Epigenetic regulatory mechanisms play a significant role in the gene expression involved in EMT, impacting the development and progression of cancer.

Understanding the Complex Milieu of Epithelial-Mesenchymal Transition in Cancer Metastasis: New Insight Into the Roles of Transcription Factors

Sikiru O. Imodoye et al.

Summary: EMT is a crucial physiological process in human development and wound healing, but it can be hijacked in pathological conditions like tumor metastasis, posing a major challenge in cancer treatment. Master regulators called EMT transcription factors play a significant role in driving molecular rewiring that leads to tumor initiation, progression, EMT, metastasis, and colonization. Understanding the molecular interplay involving EMT signaling pathways is essential for developing effective therapeutic targets to overcome drug resistance in cancer treatment.
