Peptide‐Based Biomaterials as a Promising Tool for Cancer Radiotherapy

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This review provides a systematic overview of peptide‐based biomaterials in tumor radiotherapy, covering their roles as both radiosensitizers and radiopharmaceuticals. Peptide‐based radiosensitizers are generally divided into three categories: peptides as direct radiosensitizers, peptides as carriers of radiosensitizers, and targeted‐peptide‐modified ...

Nanomedicine‐Driven Modulation of Reductive Stress for Cancer Therapy

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This article introduces a novel therapeutic paradigm that deliberately induces reductive stress within tumor cells to exploit their unique biochemical vulnerabilities. It systematically reviews the underlying biological mechanisms, current detection and monitoring techniques, and emerging advanced nanotechnology platforms specifically designed to ...

An Interesting Case Of Bronchial Asthma

Journal of Clinical and Biomedical Sciences, 2019
Acute pulmonary embolism is a component of venous thromboembolism (VTE), which may prove fatal if not suspected and subsequently treated. Here we present a 82 year female patient with Bronchial asthma who de-teriorated and developed pulmonary ...

Xylem surfactants introduce a new element to the cohesion-tension theory [PDF]

, 2016
Vascular plants transport water under negative pressure without constantly creating gas bubbles that would disable their hydraulic systems. Attempts to replicate this feat in artificial systems almost invariably result in bubble formation, except under ...

Pulmonary Embolism in Children [PDF]

Frontiers in Pediatrics, 2017
Pulmonary embolism (PE) in the pediatric population is relatively rare when compared to adults; however, the incidence is increasing and accurate and timely diagnosis is critical. A high clinical index of suspicion is warranted as PE often goes unrecognized among children leading to misdiagnosis and potentially increased morbidity and mortality ...

Wearable Bioelectronics for Home‐Based Monitoring and Treatment of Muscle Atrophy

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
As an inevitable disease, muscle atrophy has received more attention. Because the factors that induce this disease are diverse, achieving a complete cure is still impossible. Wearable bioelectronics provides a more comfortable, low‐cost, and efficient way of home care for the monitoring and treatment of muscle atrophy. Therefore, this review summarizes

Cancer-Associated Thrombosis in Cirrhotic Patients with Hepatocellular Carcinoma. [PDF]

, 2018
It is common knowledge that cancer patients are more prone to develop venous thromboembolic complications (VTE). It is therefore not surprising that patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) present with a significant risk of VTE, with the portal vein
