    Imiquimod (Aldara) has been used with success for squamous-cell carcinoma in situ of the skin and the penis, but the morbidity and discomfort of the treatment is severe. An advantage is the cosmetic result: after treatment, the skin resembles normal skin without the usual scarring and morbidity associated with standard excision.

    In particular, butyrate inhibits colonic tumor cells and stimulates proliferation of healthy colonic epithelial cells. [ 70 ] [ 71 ] The explanation why butyrate is an energy source for normal colonocytes and induces apoptosis in colon cancer cells, is the Warburg effect in cancer cells, which leads to butyrate not being properly metabolized.

    The recurrence rate for EDC is considered by many (National Comprehensive Cancer Network) to be too high for use on many facial regions, and on recurrent skin cancer. [6] [7] As a surgical ulcer is created and is larger than the original tumor, healing time may be delayed and subsequent scarring obvious. [citation needed]

  9. Chemotherapy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemotherapy

    There are a few possible causes of resistance in cancer, one of which is the presence of small pumps on the surface of cancer cells that actively move chemotherapy from inside the cell to the outside. Cancer cells produce high amounts of these pumps, known as p-glycoprotein, in order to protect themselves from chemotherapeutics. Research on p ...
