Other research highlights include:

An extract from licorice root may help decrease or eliminate a specific cell protein, called bcl-2, which is responsible for blocking cell death (known as apoptosis) and therefore allowing the proliferation of cancer cells

A new way of delivering the tumor suppressor gene p53 holds promise for more effective treatment of prostate cancer First results confirming that the gene heparanase is responsible for tumor progression and how its cloning may lead to early detection and treatment of cancer and auto-immune disorders

Discovery of structural similarity between two naturally occurring compounds - taxanes (the source for Taxol and Taxotere) and epothilones -- may lead to new methods of interfering with unregulated cell division
