In this sense, the involvement of adjacent lymph nodes, liver, lungs and, especially, bones is common, with 9 out of 10 patients with metastatic prostate cancer manifesting bone tissue involvement.

Antitumor phospholipids are synthetic analogues of endogenous phosphatidylcholines with a remarkable ability: inducing the selective apoptosis of exponentially growing tumor cells. Concerning their mechanism of action, one hypothesis points to the inhibition of the enzyme cytidine triphosphate (CTP):phosphocholine cytidylyltransferase (CCT) as a key event related to the antitumor actions …
Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is a hematologic cancer with poor prognosis, commonly presenting resistance to available treatments. Phospholipid metabolism is severely altered in AML cells and appears to be closely related to malignancy and resistance, suggesting the existence of therapeutic opportunities in the inhibition of participating enzymes. One of these enzymes is acid ceramidase (a…
