Analysis of radiation-induced cell death in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma and rat liver maintained in microfluidic devices [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Objective The aim of this study was to investigate how head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) tissue biopsies maintained in a pseudo in vivo environment within a bespoke microfluidic device respond to radiation treatment.

Organoids in pediatric cancer research

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Organoid technology has revolutionized cancer research, yet its application in pediatric oncology remains limited. Recent advances have enabled the development of pediatric tumor organoids, offering new insights into disease biology, treatment response, and interactions with the tumor microenvironment.

Low dose radiation, inflammation, cancer and chemoprevention [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Radiation Biology, 2018
Recently, new studies have brought to light the potential risks of low dose radiation (LDR) in cancer. In this review, we discuss in detail the detrimental effects of LDR in some model organisms and animal models, as well as potential risks to human beings from some routine medical screening procedures.

Structural biology of ferritin nanocages

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Ferritin is a conserved iron‐storage protein that sequesters iron as a ferric mineral core within a nanocage, protecting cells from oxidative damage and maintaining iron homeostasis. This review discusses ferritin biology, structure, and function, and highlights recent cryo‐EM studies revealing mechanisms of ferritinophagy, cellular iron uptake, and ...

Low Dose Radiation Adaptive Protection to Control Neurodegenerative Diseases

open access: yesDose-Response, 2014
Concerns have been expressed recently regarding the observed increased DNA damage from activities such as thinking and exercise. Such concerns have arisen from an incomplete accounting of the full effects of the increased oxidative damage.

Low-dose radiation cancer susceptibility models

open access: yesAging, 2015
While the biological effects of low-dose radiation exposure are increasingly better understood, continued research is needed to develop better individual risk-based models. Human population exposures to low doses of ionizing radiation (defined by the US Department of Energy as less than 10 rem or 0.1 Sv) are increasing due to occupational exposures of ...

In Vivo Mutagenic Effect of Very Low Dose Radiation

open access: yesDose-Response, 2006
Almost all of our knowledge about the mutational effect of radiation has come from high dose studies which are generally not relevant to public exposure.
