Removing her coat, I could see that her clothes were in similar shape. After going through

Cancer cells stimulate neutrophils to release neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) which promote cancer cell metastasis. Researchers look into using DNase 1, an enzyme known to digest NETs, as a possible treatment for abating metastasis. Neutrophils are the most abundant type of white blood cells in the human body. They are phagocytic leukocytes (ingesting any pathogens they come in contact with) that also produce inflammatory mediators and cytokines. NETs were discovered by scientists in 2004

Cancer lies dormant in all of us; all living organisms such as our bodies are making defective cells all the time (1). This is how tumors are developed. Our bodies are also equipped with a number of mechanisms that detect and keep such cells in check (1). Breast Cancer (BC), is the most common malignancy in women worldwide, and it is associated with high morbidity and mortality (2). These breast tumors are comprised of phenotypically diverse populations of breast cancer cells (3). However, chemoresistance

I can explain so much about breast cancer because I have had family members die from this disease. Being around a person with cancer will heart your heart so bad. My cousin and uncle had it.

This type of cancer progresses rapidly and is seen to affect the population of young

Regardless, she challenged all of these adversities not with anger and bitterness, but with dignity and pride. She used these qualities to not only conquer her own personal issues, but to challenge the very essence of the social, political
