From DNA Damage to Nucleic Acid Sensing: A Strategy to Enhance Radiation Therapy.
Local irradiation (IR) is widely used in the treatment of primary and metastatic tumors. However, the impact of IR on the immune response is currently being defined. Local and distant relapse after radiotherapy often occurs. The current rationale for the use of IR is based on direct cytotoxicity to cancer cells; however, recent studies have shown that reduction of tumor burden following ablativ...
متن کاملStrategies to Improve Homing of Stem Cells to achieve better Efficacy in Stem Cell Therapy
Stem/progenitor cell based therapeutic approach in our daily routine clinical practice, has been elusive dream in medical sciences and improvement of stem cell homing as one of major challenges in cell therapy programs, has been considered a promising milestone. It has been proved that stem/progenitor cells exhibit a homing response to injured tissues/organs, mediated by interactions of chemoki...
متن کاملModulation of molecular targets to enhance radiation.
The potential for modern molecular radiobiology to provide meaningful contributions to cancer therapeutics has never been brighter. The classic radiobiology framework assembled over the last three to four decades has not only provided critical insights regarding cell cycle kinetics, DNA damage/repair systems, and the biological basis for fractionation but now affords the opportunity to exploit ...
متن کاملParallel Beamformation Method to Enhance Ultrasound Images
Contrast resolution and detail resolution are two important parameters in ultrasound imaging. This paper presents a new method to enhance these parameters, simultaneously. A parallel auxiliary beamformer has been employed whose weightings are such that an estimation of the leaked signal through the main beamformer is obtained. Then the output of main beamformer is modified according to the ...
متن کاملResearch needed for improving heavy-ion therapy
The large interest in heavy-ion therapy is stimulated from its excellent clinical results. The bases of this success are the radiobiological and physical advantages of heavy-ion beams and the active beam delivery used for an intensity-modulated particle radiotherapy (IMPT). Although heavy-ion therapy has reached a high degree of perfection for clinical use there is still large progress possible...
