Do microenvironmental effects limit efficacy of thymoquinone treatment in a mouse model of ovarian cancer?
Our findings show that pro-tumorigenic microenvironmental effects limited the efficacy of TQ in a syngeneic mouse model of ovarian cancer, and provide caution regarding its potential use in clinical trials in ovarian cancer patients.
Inhibition of thrombin during preservation of DCD graft preserved renal integrity and function, protecting against chronic inflammation and tissue damage. Thus, coagulation seems to be a critical target for the development of therapeutic strategies to improve kidney quality for transplantation.
