ABSTRACT Objective Cognitive impairment, fatigue, and depression are common in multiple sclerosis (MS), potentially due to disruption of regional functional connectivity caused by white matter (WM) lesions. We explored whether WM lesions functionally connected to specific brain regions contribute to these MS‐related manifestations.

Development of radiation countermeasure agents for acute radiation syndromes
The risk of internal and external exposure to ionizing radiation (IR) has increased alongside the development and implementation of nuclear technology. Therefore, serious security issues have emerged globally, and there has been an increase in the number

Increased Blood Levels of NfL, GFAP, and Placental Growth Factor After Radiotherapy to the Brain
ABSTRACT In this study, we analyzed biomarkers of neuronal, glial, and vascular injury in longitudinal paired samples of blood and cerebrospinal fluid after prophylactic cranial irradiation in patients with small cell lung cancer. Neurofilament light chain protein (NfL) and glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) increased in serum and cerebrospinal ...

Radiation-induced injury and the gut microbiota: insights from a microbial perspective
Although radiotherapy is the second most effective cancer treatment, radiation injuries limit its use. About 80% of abdominal-pelvic radiotherapy patients develop acute radiation enteritis, with 20% discontinuing radiotherapy.
