Tumor Marker and Cancer Detection
By:
Nidhi Uppangala
Tumor Markers are biological substances like protein that can be produced in high level than normal level in patients with cancer. Tumor markers can be produced in blood, urine or any tissue of the cancer patient. Tumor markers can be produced either by tumor cell or by body cells in response to the tumor.

Cancer Immunotherapy Using Monoclonal Antibodies
By:
Nidhi Uppangala
Monoclonal antibody immunotherapy uses antibodies prepared in the lab. Once the monoclonal antibodies are administered in to the body, they activate other cells involved in immune system to destroy or kill the cancer cells. Monoclonal antibodies are most widely used form of immunotherapy to treat cancer.

DNA Vaccine: Vaccine of Next Generation
By:
Nidhi Uppangala
Vaccines made up of DNA sequences that code for the antigenic protein of pathogens. When these DNA vaccines are injected into the body cells they are transcribed and translated to produce antigenic proteins. These elicit the immune response against the pathogen.

Biomarker in Cancer Prognosis, Detection and Treatment
By:
Nidhi Uppangala
Biomarker can be a protein, carbohydrate or lipid whose presence or absence or its concentration level can be used as an indicator for presence of some kind of disease state. Many biomarkers with potential clinical application are discovered due to the advances in fields like genomics, proteomics and molecular pathology. Biomarkers are also used in cancer staging, prognosis and also in treatment.

Ribonucleic Acid Interference
By:
Nidhi Uppangala
Ribonucleic acid interference (RNAi) is a process of a cell which helps in controlling the expression of genes. RNAi helps in degradation of mRNA (messenger Ribonucleic acid) with the help of sequence specific double-stranded RNA. RNAi molecules are present in all eukaryotes, for example from yeast cell to mammals.
