Boron agents for neutron capture therapy

open access: yes, 2019
Boron neutron capture therapy (BNCT) is a potential cancer radiotherapeutic modality, which takes advantage of the neutron capture response that occurs when boron (10B) is struck by low-energy thermal neutrons, triggering a nuclear fission reaction that ...

Translational research of boron neutron capture therapy for spinal cord gliomas using rat model

open access: yesScientific Reports
Boron neutron capture therapy (BNCT) is a type of targeted particle radiation therapy with potential applications at the cellular level. Spinal cord gliomas (SCGs) present a substantial challenge owing to their poor prognosis and the lack of effective ...

Boron-Containing MOF Nanoparticles with Stable Metabolism in U87-MG Cells Combining Microdosimetry To Evaluate Relative Biological Effectiveness of Boron Neutron Capture Therapy

open access: yes
Accurate prediction of the relative biological effectiveness (RBE) of boron neutron capture therapy (BNCT) is challenging. The therapy is different from other radiotherapy; the dynamic distribution of boron-containing compounds in tumor cells affects the

Non-reactor neutron sources for BNCT (Boron Neutron Capture Therapy)

open access: yes, 1989
The focus of this study is the indentification of key feasibility issues for the use of non-reactor neutron sources for Boron Neutron Capture Therapy (BNCT). Of the non-reactor neutron sources surveyed, the /sup 7/Li(p,n) reaction appears to be the most favorable for producing epithermal neutrons for BNCT, and RFQ accelerators are best for producing ...

Evaluation of the Safety of Folate Receptor-Targeted Boron Carrier in Boron Neutron Capture Therapy (BNCT) for Malignant Gliomas Using CED Administration

open access: yesProceedings
Knowing how to accumulate boron into the tumor cells is a crucial aspect of boron neutron capture therapy (BNCT), which can be targeted at the cellular level, and the development of novel boron agents other than BPA, which is used in clinical practice ...
