miR-142-3p attenuates breast cancer stem cell characteristics and decreases radioresistance in vitro
Tumor Biology, 2018 Effectively targeting cancer stem cells, a subpopulation of tumorigenic, aggressive, and radioresistant cells, holds therapeutic promise. However, the effects of the microRNA miR-142-3p, a small endogenous regulator of gene expression on breast cancer ...

Fractionation in radiation therapy
International Journal of Radiation Oncology*Biology*Physics, 1987 Variations in schedule from the usual 200 cGy daily, 5 days a week, for six or seven weeks, will be reviewed with both the radiobiological basis and clinical results so far. Hyperfractionated schedules (e.g., 1.15 Gy b.i.d. for 7 weeks) have given lo-15% better local control than the conventional 7-week schedule, with no extra late effects, both in ...

Antioxidants and Radiation Therapy [PDF]
The Journal of Nutrition, 2004 The American Cancer Society estimates 1,368,050 new cancer cases in 2004 and 536,700 deaths from the disease. Although cancer rates for different sites vary widely, the 5-year relative survival rate for all cancers combined is estimated at 63%. Among the many possible causes of cancer, reactive oxygen species (ROS) have been implicated in the onset and

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.Human cytomegalovirus infection is common in normal prostate epithelium, prostate tumor tissue, and prostate cancer cell lines. CMV promotes cell survival, proliferation, and androgen receptor signaling. Anti‐CMV pharmaceutical compounds in clinical use inhibited cell expansion in prostate cancer models in vitro and in vivo, motivating investigation ...

The scenario-based generalization of radiation therapy margins
, 2015 We give a scenario-based treatment plan optimization formulation that is equivalent to planning with geometric margins if the scenario doses are calculated using the static dose cloud approximation.

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.In thyroid cancer patients, high‐dose (≥7.4 GBq) radioactive iodine therapy (RAIT) was associated with a higher prevalence of clonal hematopoiesis (variant allele frequency >2%) in individuals aged ≥50 years (OR = 2.44). In silico analyses showed that truncating PPM1D mutations conferred a selective advantage under these conditions.
