The bio-energetic theory of carcinogenesis.
10/1/2012 Med Hypotheses. 2012 Oct;79(4):433-9. Gonzalez MJ, Miranda Massari JR, Duconge J, Riordan NH, Ichim T, Quintero-Del-Rio AI, Ortiz N. The altered energy metabolism of tumor cells provides a viable target for a non toxic chemotherapeutic approach. An increased glucose consumption rate has been observed in malignant cells. Warburg (Nobel Laureate in medicine) postulated that…

The lysosomotropic agent, hydroxychloroquine, delivered in a biodegradable nanoparticle system, overcomes drug resistance of B-chronic lymphocytic leukemia cells in vitro.
2/1/2010 Cancer Biother Radiopharm. 2010 Feb;25(1):97-103 Mansilla E, Marin GH, Nuñez L, Drago H, Sturla F, Mertz C, Rivera L, Ichim T, Riordan N, Raimondi C. Nonviral delivery systems are relatively easy to produce in the large scale, are safe, and elicit a negligible immune response. Nanoparticles (NPs) offer promise as nonviral vectors as biocompatible…
Granulocyte activity in patients with cancer and healthy subjects.
9/1/2008 Cancer Biol Ther. 2008 Sep;7(9):1362-7. Mikirova NA, Klykov AA, Jackson JA, Riordan NH. In our study, we investigated the intracellular killing ability of granulocytes for healthy and ill subjects by measuring NADH oxidase activity and release of hydrogen peroxide. The protocol methodology measured the hydrogen peroxide released after granulocytes activation by PMA (phorbol 12-myristate…
A pilot clinical study of continuous intravenous ascorbate in terminal cancer patients.
12/1/2005 P R Health Sci J. 2005 Dec;24(4):269-76 Riordan HD, Casciari JJ, González MJ, Riordan NH, Miranda-Massari JR, Taylor P, Jackson JA. Case studies suggest that vitamin C, given intravenously at doses of 10-100 grams/day can improve patient well being and in some cases, reduce tumor size. While ascorbate is generally considered safe, clinical data…
Orthomolecular oncology review: ascorbic acid and cancer 25 years later.
