polyethylene glycol / Bcl-2 Cancer Research Results

PEG, polyethylene glycol: Click to Expand ⟱
Features:
PEG polyethylene glycol often used for nano particle stabilization. -Prevents aggregation, reduces opsonization -Increases half-life and stability -improves tumor targeting (EPR effect) repeated PEG exposure can trigger anti-PEG antibodies (found in ~20–40% of humans), which may Reduce therapeutic effectiveness

Bcl-2, B-cell CLL/lymphoma 2: Click to Expand ⟱
Source: HalifaxProj (inhibit) CGL-Driver Genes
Type: Antiapoptotic Oncogene
The proteins of BCL-2 family are classified into three subgroups, i.e., the anti-apoptotic/pro-survival proteins represented by BCL-2 and BCL-XL, the pro-apoptotic proteins represented by BAX and Bak, and the pro-apoptotic BH3-only proteins represented by BAD and BID.
Since the expression of Bcl-2 protein in tumor cells is much higher than that in normal cells, inhibitors targeting it have little effect on normal cells.
