Biomarkers for Radiation Pneumonitis Using Noninvasive Molecular Imaging [PDF]
Our goal is to develop minimally invasive biomarkers for predicting radiation-induced lung injury before symptoms develop. Currently, there are no biomarkers that can predict radiation pneumonitis.

Radiation: a poly-traumatic hit leading to multi-organ injury
The range of radiation threats we face today includes everything from individual radiation exposures to mass casualties resulting from a terrorist incident, and many of these exposure scenarios include the likelihood of additional traumatic injury as ...

Commonalities Between COVID-19 and Radiation Injury
As the multi-systemic components of COVID-19 emerge, parallel etiologies can be drawn between SARS-CoV-2 infection and radiation injuries. While some SARS-CoV-2-infected individuals present as asymptomatic, others exhibit mild symptoms that may include ...

Sulfasalazine antagonizes boosted metastasis of breast cancer induced by ionizing radiation
Objective To evaluate the inhibitory effects of sulfasalazine (SSZ) on ionizing radiation (IR) induced epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT), migration, invasion, and other metastasis-related phenotypes in breast cancer cells in vitro, and to ...

Cutaneous and local radiation injuries
Abstract The threat of a large-scale radiological or nuclear (R/N) incident looms in the present-day climate, as noted most recently in an editorial in Scientific American (March 2021). These large-scale incidents are infrequent but affect large numbers of people. Smaller-scale R/N incidents occur more often, affecting smaller numbers of
