Oxaliplatin-induced peripheral neuropathy risk factors and management in Tunisian population

The Pan African Medical Journal, 2020
The most important limits of oxaliplatin treatment is its peripheral neurotoxicity. The aim of our study was to evaluate the oxaliplatin-induced peripheral neuropathy, its impact on treatment and its management.

Residual tail twisting in ascidian larvae is stabilized by asymmetric myofibrils that resist bilateral symmetry restoration

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Ascidian Ciona larvae initially show strong clockwise tail twisting, which is largely corrected during development. However, a small residual twist remains. This study shows that organized helical myofibrils in tail muscles mechanically stabilize this residual asymmetry, preventing complete restoration of bilateral symmetry and revealing how embryos ...

Limitations of the minimum peripheral dose as a parameter for dose specification in permanent 125I prostate implants

International Journal of Radiation Oncology*Biology*Physics, 1996
The objective of this work is to investigate whether the minimum peripheral dose is a practical parameter for dose specification in permanent 125I implants of the prostate.The investigation was carried out by use of a computer model of ellipsoidal 125I implants in which the average dimension and elongation factor were varied to provide a wide range of ...

Plecstatin inhibits hepatocellular carcinoma tumorigenesis and invasion through cytolinker plectin

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
The ruthenium‐based metallodrug plecstatin exerts its anticancer effect in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) primarily through selective targeting of plectin. By disrupting plectin‐mediated cytoskeletal organization, plecstatin inhibits anchorage‐dependent growth, cell polarization, and tumor cell dissemination.
