"This book describes both the technologies used in the discovery of melanoma biomarkers and the clinical application of these biomarkers for diagnosis and staging of disease, determination of prognosis, treatment planning, monitoring of response to therapy, identification of novel therapeutic targets and drug development. A broad range of biomarkers (DNA/chromosomal, mRNA, microRNA, mitochondrial DNA, epigenetic and protein) is outlined. As therapies for melanoma become increasingly more target specific, the identification, validation and use of biomarkers will invariably play a greater role in the management of patients with this disease."

"Diagnostic, prognostic and therapeutic value of gene signatures provides readers a useful and comprehensive resource about the range of applications of microarray technology in oncological diseases. Topics covered include gene signatures and soft tissue sarcomas, prognostic relevance of breast cancer signatures, gene expression profiling of colorectal cancer and liver metastasis, gene signatures in GISTs, CNVs and gene expression profiles in pancreatic cancer, and gene signatures in head/neck, lung and gastric tumors."

"Most therapeutics available today are highly toxic, very expensive and exhibit minimum efficacy. The issue of toxicity is even more critical for prevention than for therapy because the former involves normal subjects. Thus, therapeutics that are safe and affordable are needed for both prevention and therapy. Spices of Southeast Asian origin, once employed for taste, appearance and preservation of food, now appear to have therapeutic value for humans. What the active principles in these spices are and how they mediate their effect against various diseases are beginning to emerge from extensive research carried out within the last half-century. The current monograph is an attempt to address the active constituents, their molecular targets and the therapeutic uses of these spices"

"In this ground–breaking practical reference, the family of aspartic acid proteases is described from a drug developer′s perspective. The first part provides a general introduction to the family of aspartic acid proteases, their physiological functions, molecular structure and inhibition. Parts two to five present various case studies of successful protease inhibitor drug design and development, as well as current and potential uses of such inhibitors in pharmaceutical medicine, covering the major therapeutic targets HIV–1 protease, renin, beta–secretase, gamma–secretase,plasmepsins and fungal proteases.

"This book provides a comprehensive overview of several promising novel drug targets and approaches against arrhythmias, with particular emphasis placed on malignant ventricular arrhythmias. The individual chapters address a single treatment strategy written by a leading expert on the chapter, including arrhythmia mechanisms, kinase inhibitors, calcium and potassium channel targets, and atrial selective drugs."

"This book provides a comprehensive look at renal cell carcinoma, exploring its biology as well as current and future molecular targets for renal cancer carcinoma."

"Tujuan: untuk menganalisis penanda biologi CXCR4, IL11-RA, TFF1 dan MLF1P, klinikopatologi dan profil ekspresi genetik mRNA sebagai penanda peningkatan kejadian metastasis tulang pada pasien kanker payudara stadium lanjut.Metode: studi ini merupakan penelitian potong lintang. Analisis dilakukan pada total 92 pasien kanker payudara, terdiri atas 46 pasien metastasis tulang dan 46 pasien dengan metastasis nontulang. Analisis imunohistokimia dan microarray, dilakukan pada 81 sampel formalin fixed paraffin embedded (FFPE) dari 81 pasien yang didapat. Data dikumpulkan melalui rekam medis, pemeriksaan imunohistokimia (IHK), dan microarray dengan nanoString nCounterTM.Hasil: artikel ini merupakan bagian satu dari dua tahap pelaporan hasil penelitian. Pada tahap satu diperoleh hasil analisis IHK, IL11-RA dengan cut-off ≥103,5 menunjukkan peningkatan kejadian metastasis tulang, dengan OR 3,803 (95 % interval kepercayaan [IK], 1,375-10,581), p=0,010, dan MLF1P dengan cut-off ≥83,0 menunjukkan peningkatan kejadian metastasis tulang, dengan OR 2,784 (95% IK, 1,009-7,681), p=0,048. Status ER+ menunjukkan peningkatan kejadian metastasis tulang, dengan OR 7,640 (95 % IK, 2,599-22,459), p<0,000. AUC gabungan IL-11RA, MLF1P dan ER+, mempunyai ketepatan hampir 80% (meningkat dibandingkan AUC masing-masing secara terpisah), untuk membedakan dan menjelaskan kejadian metastasis tulang, pada kanker payudara stadium lanjut.Kesimpulan: IL11-RA, MLF1P dan ER+, merupakan determinan peningkatan kejadian metastasis tulang pasien kanker payudara stadium lanjut.

Aim: to analyze expression of biomarkers CXCR4, IL11-RA, TFF1 and MLF1P, and clinico pathology in advanced breast cancer patients with bone metastatic.Methods: this is a cross-sectional study. Analysis was done against a total of 92 breast cancer patients, including 46 bone metastatic patients and 46 non-bone metastatic patients. Immunohistochemistry and microarray analysis was performed in 81 formalin fixed paraffin embedded (FFPE) samples from 81 patients were used. Data were collected through medical records, immunohistochemistry (IHC), and microarray with nanoString nCounterTM. Results: this article is part one of a two stage reporting research results. In part one we got the results of the IHC analysis, IL11-RA with cut-off ≥103.5 showed OR 3.803 (95 % confidence interval [CI], 1.375-10.581), p=0.010, MLF1P with cut-off ≥83.0 OR 2.784 (95% CI, 1.009-7.681), p=0.048, and ER+ OR 7.640 (95 % CI, 2.599-22.459), p<0.000, were associated with bone metastastic incidences in advanced breast cancer, and were statistically significantly different. A combination of IL-11RA, MLF1P and ER+, showed an accuracy of approaching 80% to discriminate between bone metastatic and non bone metastatic in advanced breast cancer patients.Conclusion: IL11-RA, MLF1P, and ER+ were the determinants that were associated with increasing bone metastasis incidence."

"ABSTRAKTuberculosis was still a global health problem. Beside lung, tuberculosis also manifest in other organs, one among them  is in abdominal organs. Abdominal tuberculosis was a complex disease with unspecific sign and symptoms so that its diagnostic procedure was not rarely inconclusive. We reported a 24 years old woman with chief complain of worsening abdominal pain in all region, accompanied by nausea, vomiting, bloating, and  absent bowel movement. She also had a fresh bloody stool. She had an active pulmonary tuberculosis on initiation phase treatment. Physical examination suggest a bowel obstruction sign with distended abdomen and increase bowel sound. Colonoscopy procedure findings was a mass that obstruct bowel lumen in ileocaecal region, suggest for malignancy similar to computerized tomography (CT) scan result, but pathlogic result showed an active colitis without any sign of malignancy. Because of its contradiction, the second colonoscopy was performed and concluded as intestinal tuberculosis, matched with second pathologic examination. Although polymerase chain reaction (PCR) tuberculosis (TB) showed a negative result, a further clinical judgement concluded this as an intestinal tuberculosis case. Patient was finally treated as intestinal tuberculosis with first-line antituberculosis drugs and planned to have colonoscopy evaluation. After general condition was good and obstructive ileus sign was relieved, patient planned for outpatient care."
