THE MOLECULAR MECHANISMS INVOLVED IN DOXORUBICIN-INDUCED SKELETAL MUSCLE WASTING
Moreira-Pais, Alexandra; Ferreira, Rita; Costa, Vera Marisa; A. Oliveira, Paula; A. Duarte, JoséChemotherapeutic agents like doxorubicin (DOX) are the foundation for the treatment of a variety of malignancies; however, these therapies have several side-effects. DOX may trigger or potentiate the muscle wasting observed in cancer patients, which is particularly worrying in frail old patients. Therefore, it is important to comprehend the mechanisms responsible for DOX-induced toxicity in skeletal muscle, to ...
Tracking prostate carcinogenesis over time through urine proteome profiling in ...
Moreira-Pais, Alexandra; Nogueira-Ferreira, Rita; Reis, Stephanie; Aveiro, Susana; Barros, António; Melo, Tânia; Matos, Bárbara; Duarte, José AlbertoProstate cancer (PCa) is one of the most lethal diseases in men, which justifies the search for new diagnostic tools. The aim of the present study was to gain new insights into the progression of prostate carcinogenesis by analyzing the urine proteome. To this end, urine from healthy animals and animals with prostate adenocarcinoma was analyzed at two time points: 27 and 54 weeks. After 54 weeks, the incidence ...
