Functional and conformational impact of cancer-associated SF3B1 mutations depends on the position and the charge of amino acid substitution

Computational and Structural Biotechnology Journal, 2021
The hotspot mutations of SF3B1, the most frequently mutated splicing gene in cancers, contribute to oncogenesis by corrupting the mRNA splicing. Further SF3B1 mutations have been reported in cancers but their consequences remain unclear.

A Novel Method to Generate and Expand Clinical-Grade, Genetically Modified, Tumor-Infiltrating Lymphocytes

Frontiers in Immunology, 2017
Following the clinical success achieved with the first generation of adoptive cell therapy (ACT) utilizing in vitro expanded tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs), the second and third generations of TIL ACT are evolving toward the use of genetically ...

Automatic Skin Lesion Analysis using Large-scale Dermoscopy Images and Deep Residual Networks [PDF]

arXiv, 2017
Malignant melanoma has one of the most rapidly increasing incidences in the world and has a considerable mortality rate. Early diagnosis is particularly important since melanoma can be cured with prompt excision. Dermoscopy images play an important role in the non-invasive early detection of melanoma [1].

Stereotactic radiotherapy for metastatic brain tumors: A comparative analysis of dose distributions among VMAT, Helical TomoTherapy, CyberKnife, Gamma Knife, and ZAP‐X

Journal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, EarlyView.
Abstract This study evaluates various radiotherapy techniques for treating metastatic brain tumor (BT), focusing on non‐coplanar volumetric modulated arc radiotherapy (NC‐VMAT), coplanar VMAT (C‐VMAT), Helical TomoTherapy (HT), CyberKnife (CK), Gamma Knife (GK), and ZAP‐X.

Multiple Convolutional Neural Network for Skin Dermoscopic Image Classification [PDF]

arXiv, 2018
Melanoma classification is a serious stage to identify the skin disease. It is considered a challenging process due to the intra-class discrepancy of melanomas, skin lesions low contrast, and the artifacts in the dermoscopy images, including noise, existence of hair, air bubbles, and the similarity between melanoma and non-melanoma cases.

Redox signals at the ER-mitochondria interface control melanoma progression.

, 2019
Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are emerging as important regulators of cancer growth and metastatic spread. However, how cells integrate redox signals to affect cancer progression is not fully understood.

Melanoma of the Foot

Clinics in Podiatric Medicine and Surgery, 2016
Melanoma is a rare form of skin cancer that is responsible for most skin cancer deaths globally. Tumors arising on the foot continue to be a particular challenge. Patients present later and lesions are frequently misdiagnosed, leading to more advanced disease with an overall poorer prognosis then melanoma elsewhere.

Monte Carlo modeling of radiation dose from radiation therapy with superficial x‐rays

Journal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Superficial x‐rays (50–100 kVp) are used for treating non‐melanoma skin cancer and intraoperative radiation therapy (IORT). At these energies, the photoelectric effect significantly increases absorbed dose to bone compared to soft tissue.

Growth and apoptosis pathways in human cutaneous melanoma: in vitro and in vivo studies by using biological and proteomics approaches [PDF]

, 2013
Purpose. Melanoma is the most aggressive cutaneous cancer without effective treatment. Diagnosis is achieved very often too late and prognosis is poor.

Machine stability and dosimetry for ultra‐high dose rate FLASH radiotherapy human clinical protocol

Journal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background The FLASH effect, induced by ultra‐high dose rate (UHDR) irradiations, offers the potential to spare normal tissue while effectively treating tumors. It is important to achieve precise and accurate dose delivery and to establish reliable detector systems, particularly for clinical trials needed to help the clinical transfer of FLASH‐
