The biological mechanism involved in anticancer properties of amniotic membrane.
The main role of amniotic membrane (AM), or amnion, is to protect the fetus from drying out and create an appropriate environment for its growth. AM is also a suitable candidate for the treatment of various diseases due to its unique characteristics. In recent years, a new line of research has focused on the anticancer properties of amnion and its potential use in cancer treatment. The in vitro and in vivo studies indicate the anti-proliferative and proapoptotic activities, as well as the angioregulatory and immunomodulatory properties of the amniotic membrane. However, the exact mechanism and molecular basis of these anticancer effects of AM are not fully elucidated. This paper presents an overview of the latest findings and knowledge about the anticancer effects of AM and its underlying molecular mechanisms, which is crucial for the application of amnion in cancer therapy.
期刊介绍:
Oncology Reviews is a quarterly peer-reviewed, international journal that publishes authoritative state-of-the-art reviews on preclinical and clinical aspects of oncology. The journal will provide up-to-date information on the latest achievements in different fields of oncology for both practising clinicians and basic researchers. Oncology Reviews aims at being international in scope and readership, as reflected also by its Editorial Board, gathering the world leading experts in both pre-clinical research and everyday clinical practice. The journal is open for publication of supplements, monothematic issues and for publishing abstracts of scientific meetings; conditions can be obtained from the Editor-in-Chief or the publisher.
