Biological response of cancer cells to radiation treatment
Cancer is a class of diseases characterized by uncontrolled cell growth and has the ability to spread or metastasize throughout the body. In recent years, remarkable progress has been made toward the understanding of proposed hallmarks of cancer development, care, and treatment modalities. Radiation therapy or radiotherapy is an important and integral component of cancer management, mostly conf...
متن کاملAtorvastatin Sensitizes Breast and Lung Cancer Cells to Ionizing Radiation
Tumour cells may be resistant to radiotherapy that results in unsuccessful cancer treatment in patients. The aim of this study was to evaluate the sensitizing effect of atorvastatin (ATV) on breast cancer (MDA-MB-231) and non-small cell lung cancer (A-549) cells following exposure to ionizing radiation (IR). These cells were treated with ATV and exposed to X-ray at dose 4 Gy. The radiosensitizi...

متن کاملThe Role of chk2 in Response to DNA Damage in Cancer Cells
Accumulation of gene changes and chromosomal instability in response to cellular DNA damage lead to cancer. DNA damage induces cell cycle checkpoints pathways. Checkpoints regulate DNA replication and cell cycle progression, chromatin restructuring, and apoptosis. Checkpoint kinase 2 (chk2) is activated in response to DNA lesions. ATM phosphorylate chk2. The activated Chk2 kinase can phosphoryl...
متن کاملInvestigating of relationship between the parameters related to the treatment planning and the biological parameters in radiation induced pneumonitis in breast cancer patients
Introduction: The purpose in this study is to analyze of DVH parameters as predictors of radiation pneumonitis and investigation on the relationship between dosimetric and clinical parameters based on PFTs as response in NTCP model and therefore achieve to lung dose- response relation in breast cancer patients. Prescribed dose to treatment volumes was 50 Gy in 2.0 Gy/fractions ...
