Background: All To enhance the curative effect of radiotherapy, we established a radio-resistant cell line, CNE-2R from CNE-2, a radio-sensitive type of CNE, through repeated irradiation. The developed cell line provides a basis for further studies on the radio-resistance of CNE and the molecular mechanism of radiotherapy sensitization drugs. Materials and Methods: The CNE-2 cell line was selec...

Introduction: Despite the extensive use of ionizing radiation in diagnosis and therapeutic procedures, development of radio-protector agents is important in modulating normal tissue damages. Hesperidin(HES) is a Flavanone glycoside, belonging to the Flavonoid family in human diet abundantly and noted for its many beneficial effects. The aim of present study was investigated to ...

This paper will examine the influence of radio political campaign messages on the electorates’ voting behavior in Kano – Nigeria, with a focus on the 2015 general elections. It seeks to ascertain the extent that the electorates in Kano – Nigeria were exposed to radio political campaign messages, as well as the extent to which such messages influenced their voting decisions. Equally, the study c...

conclusions due to the significant reduction in the mean inactivation dose of colon cancer cells in the presence of gold nanoparticles, it seems that gnps are suitable options to achieve a new approach in order to improve radiotherapy efficiency without increasing the prescribed radiation dose. results cell survival in the presence of gnps was more than 90% and the maximum uptake of gnps was ob...

introduction: differentiated thyroid carcinoma (dtc) is associated with excellent prognosis and high survival rates. this study was conducted to evaluate the influence of baseline and treatment-related factors on the health related quality of life (qol) in cured dtc. methods:this study was an analytic cross-sectional study on radio-iodine (rai) treated dtc patients during 2011-2012. the data on...

introduction: radio-guided parathyroid surgery along with other minimally invasive surgeries constitutes the main surgical treatment procedures for different kinds of hyperparathyroidism.  in this article we have reported our experience of radio-guided parathyroid surgery using tc-99m sestamibi. methods: ten patients with hyperparathyroidism included in our study. twenty mci of tc-99m sestamibi...

the changes in density and biomass of macrobenthos were seasonally investigated from winter 2005 till fall 2006 in southern caspian sea. samples were taken with a 225cm2 van veen grab from depths of 7 and 20 meters along two transects: line 8 area (western part) and radio darya area (eastern part). totally, 5 classes of macrobenthos were identified of which the most abundant populations were po...
