Survivin as a biological biomarker for diagnosis and therapy
Survivin (SVN) is a member of the inhibitor of apoptosis (IAP) protein family that promotes cellular proliferation and inhibits apoptosis. Overexpression of SVN is associated with autoimmune disease, hyperplasia, and tumors and can be used as a biomarker in these diseases. SVN is widely recognized as a tumor-associated antigen (TAA) and has become an important target for cancer diagnosis and ...

Clonality Analysis Service: A Paradigm Shift in Disease Diagnosis and Treatment
Understanding Clonality Analysis Clonality refers to the origin of a cell population from a single 'parent' or progenitor cell through asexual reproduction or division. This concept is vital in cancer studies as it helps track the development of tumor cells from a single mutated cell. Clonality analysis is thus essential in understanding the evolution and the spread of cancerous cells in a ...

Fatty Acids in Cancer
Fatty acids, along with glucose and amino acids, are the main source of energy for cell growth and proliferation. Abnormalities in fatty acid metabolism are commonly seen in cancer. A growing number of studies have shown that increased ab initio synthesis of fatty acids in tumor cells is a prominent feature in the development of cancer. And the activation of ab initio synthesis is negatively ...
