Nucleolin and nucleophosmin expression patterns in pulmonary adenocarcinoma invading the pleura and in pleural malignant mesothelioma

open access: yesThoracic Cancer, 2020
Background Visceral pleural invasion (VPI) in adenocarcinoma of the lung is considered a poor prognostic factor. The purpose of this study was to analyze nucleolin and nucleophosmin expression in pulmonary adenocarcinoma (PA) with VPI and in pleural ...

Anti-Tumor Effects of TRAIL-Expressing Mesenchymal Stromal Cells in a Mouse Xenograft Model of Human Mesothelioma [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Malignant mesothelioma (MM) remains a highly deadly malignancy with poor treatment option. The MM cells further promote a highly inflammatory microenvironment which contributes to tumor initiation, development, severity, and propagation. We reasoned that

Hypervision Proton Surgery: The Future Direction of Proton Therapy

open access: yesiNew Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Proton beams provide unique physical advantages characterized by a low entrance dose, negligible exit dose, and a sharp Bragg peak, which enable superior sparing of normal tissues and support safe dose escalation for improved tumor control. However, conventional photon‐based fractionation remains widely used in proton therapy, where prolonged ...

Surgery for malignant pleural mesothelioma [PDF]

open access: yesExpert Review of Respiratory Medicine, 2010
The role of surgery for malignant pleural mesothelioma encompasses the need for rapid diagnosis, preoperative staging and surgical resection, and also the need for a greater biological understanding of this rare and aggressive malignancy. In the multimodality treatment paradigm, the goal of surgery is to provide a macroscopic complete resection (i.e ...

The influence of the diagnostic technique on the histopathological diagnosis in malignant mesothelioma [PDF]

open access: yes, 1991
In the histopathology of malignant mesotheliomas three different types (epithelial, connective tissue and mixed type) are distinguished. Some authors believe all tumours to be of mixed type, but consider that due to inadequate sampling or small biopsies ...

Combining radiotherapy with CAR‐T cell therapy for solid tumors: Challenges, mechanisms, and future directions

open access: yesPrecision Radiation Oncology, EarlyView.
Radiotherapy enhances CAR‐Tcell therapy by increasing antigenicity, improving trafficking, and reshaping the tumor microenvironment. Despite its dual effects, including potential immune suppression, understanding these mechanisms enables the development of strategies to maximize synergy in solid tumors.
