The Molecular Biology of Prostate Cancer: Diagnosis, Resistance and Virulence

Thompson Reinand*; Samuel Essa; Martin Marcus

Prostate cancer is the most common form of non-skin cancer in men and the second leading cause of cancer death among them. The estimated incidence of prostate cancer worldwide was 1,414,259 in 2020, making it the fourth most commonly diagnosed malignancy, with the majority of cases seen in those over 65 years of age.

Pathological Response and Gene Expression in Rectal Cancer Neoadjuvant Therapy

Assis Jéssica V*; Figueiredo Juliano A; Silva Danielle J; Queiroz Rafaella F

Rectal Adenocarcinoma (RA) represents more than 90% of rectal tumors, with high global incidence and mortality rates. Treatment includes neoadjuvant therapy, curative surgery, and postoperative adjuvant therapy. Complete Pathologic Response (CPR) signifies the absence of residual tumors and affected lymph nodes.

Brain Metastasis: Clinical and Biological Approach

Vanesa Sánchez-Martín

Cancer includes a broad group of diseases that are characterized by the uncontrolled growth of abnormal cells, which can affect any part of the organism, and according to the World Health Organization (WHO), is one of the leading causes of death worldwide. One of the hallmarks of cancer is the development of metastasis, the main cause of death in more than 90% of cancer patients.
