The β integrin modulates serotonin sensitivity via NPxY motifs to regulate egg laying and mechanosensation behaviors in Caenorhabditis elegans

Developmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Integrin is an αβ heterodimeric receptor to the extracellular matrix; its binding to the matrix recruits focal adhesions to two NPxY motifs, the tyrosine phosphorylation sites in the cytoplasmic domain. Studies found that replacing tyrosines (Y) with phenylalanines (F) in the motif of β1 integrin displayed little developmental or ...

Disparities in Proton Radiation Utilization for HPV‐Associated Oropharyngeal Cancer Following TORS

Head &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Racial, socioeconomic, and geographic disparities in receipt of proton radiation have been reported. Whether disparities exist for oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma (OPSCC) is not well studied. Methods Patients with HPV‐associated OPSCC treated with transoral robotic surgery (TORS) and adjuvant radiation from 2016 to 2023 were

Whole breast and regional nodal irradiation in prone versus supine position in left sided breast cancer [PDF]

, 2017
Background: Prone whole breast irradiation (WBI) leads to reduced heart and lung doses in breast cancer patients receiving adjuvant radiotherapy. In this feasibility trial, we investigated the prone position for whole breast + lymph node irradiation (WB +
