Most-cited papers in Cancer Cell International

Acidic extracellular microenvironment and cancer

Yukio Kato, Shigeyuki Ozawa, Chihiro Miyamoto et al. · 1 Jan 2013

Acidic extracellular pH is a major feature of tumor tissue, extracellular acidification being primarily considered to be due to lactate secretion from anaerobic glycolysis. Clinicopathological evidence shows that transporters and pumps contribute to H+ secretion, such as the Na+/H+ exchanger, the H+-lactate co-transporter, monocarboxylate transporters, and the proton pump (H+-ATPase); these may also be associated…

The role of hypoxia in the tumor microenvironment and development of cancer stem cell: a novel approach to developing treatment

Asieh Emami Nejad, Simin Najafgholian, Alireza Rostami et al. · 20 Jan 2021

Hypoxia is a common feature of solid tumors, and develops because of the rapid growth of the tumor that outstrips the oxygen supply, and impaired blood flow due to the formation of abnormal blood vessels supplying the tumor. It has been reported that tumor hypoxia can: activate angiogenesis, thereby enhancing invasiveness and risk of metastasis;…

Resistance to cancer chemotherapy: failure in drug response from ADME to P-gp

Khalid O. Alfarouk, C C Stock, Sophie Taylor et al. · 14 Jul 2015

Cancer chemotherapy resistance (MDR) is the innate and/or acquired ability of cancer cells to evade the effects of chemotherapeutics and is one of the most pressing major dilemmas in cancer therapy. Chemotherapy resistance can arise due to several host or tumor-related factors. However, most current research is focused on tumor-specific factors and specifically genes that…

MicroRNA (miRNA) in cancer

Kaladhar B. Reddy · 2 Apr 2015

In recent years, there has been a tremendous and growing interest among researchers to investigate the role of mircoRNA (miRNA) in normal cellular as well as in disease processes. miRNAs are a family of small non-coding RNAs which were reported to regulate the expression of various oncogenes or tumor suppressor genes. The expression profiling of…

p53 signaling in cancer progression and therapy

Hany E. Marei, Asmaa Althani, Nahla Afifi et al. · 1 Dec 2021

The p53 protein is a transcription factor known as the "guardian of the genome" because of its critical function in preserving genomic integrity. The TP53 gene is mutated in approximately half of all human malignancies, including those of the breast, colon, lung, liver, prostate, bladder, and skin. When DNA damage occurs, the TP53 gene on…
