Newest firstBreast cancer is the most common cancer among women in the United States, and the leading cause of cancer incidence and mortality among Hispanic/Latina (H/L) women. For women with a genetic predisposition to hereditary breast and ovarian cancer (HBOC), genetic counseling has been shown to aid in the decision-making process and engagement in risk-reducing strategies for cancer prevention and early detection. Howeve…
Open article record in new tab ↗Ovarian clear cell carcinomas (OCCC), particularly cases that retain wild-type AT-rich interactive domain 1 A (ARID1A) expression (approximately 50% of the OCCC cases), are chemoresistant and lack specific therapies. We identified BMAL2 as a critical OCCC oncogene that promotes tumorigenesis by preventing endogenous DNA damage. BMAL2 depletion altered the expression of genes encoding DNA damage repair proteins, in…
Cannabinoids have been shown to induce anti-tumor activity in a variety of carcinoma cells such as breast, prostate, and brain. The aim of the present study is to investigate the anti-tumor activity of cannabinoids, CBD (cannbidiol), and CBG (cannabigerol) in ovarian carcinoma cells sensitive and resistant to chemotherapeutic drugs. Sensitive A2780 cells and resistant A2780/CP70 carcinoma cells and non-carcinoma c…
Open article record in new tab ↗Ovarian cancer (OC) is the single most lethal gynecologic malignancy. Cannabis sativa is used to treat various medical conditions, and is cytotoxic to a variety of cancer types. We sought to examine the effectiveness of different combinations of cannabis compounds against OC. Cytotoxic activity was determined by XTT assay on HTB75 and HTB161 cell lines. Apoptosis was determined by flow cytometry. Gene expression w…
The success of cannabinoids with chronic neuropathic pain and anxiety has been demonstrated in a multitude of studies. With the high availability of a non-intoxicating compound, cannabidiol (CBD), an over-the-counter medication, has generated heightened interest in its use in the field of oncology. This review focuses on the widespread therapeutic potential of CBD with regard to enhanced wound healing, lowered tox…
