EANM practical guidance on uncertainty analysis for molecular radiotherapy absorbed dose calculations.
(SPRINGER, 2018-12-01)
A framework is proposed for modelling the uncertainty in the measurement processes constituting the dosimetry chain that are involved in internal absorbed dose calculations. The starting point is the basic model for absorbed ...
Adaptive Radiotherapy Enabled by MRI Guidance.
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE LONDON, 2018-11-01)
Adaptive radiotherapy (ART) strategies systematically monitor variations in target and neighbouring structures to inform treatment-plan modification during radiotherapy. This is necessary because a single plan designed ...
MIR21 Drives Resistance to Heat Shock Protein 90 Inhibition in Cholangiocarcinoma.
(W B SAUNDERS CO-ELSEVIER INC, 2018-03-01)
BACKGROUND & AIMS: Cholangiocarcinomas (CCA) are resistant to chemotherapy, so new therapeutic agents are needed. We performed a screen to identify small-molecule compounds that are active against CCAs. Levels of microRNA ...
Oncogenic RAC1 and NRAS drive resistance to endoplasmic reticulum stress through MEK/ERK signalling.
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE INC, 2018-04-01)
Cancer cells are able to survive under conditions that cause endoplasmic reticulum stress (ER-stress), and can adapt to this stress by upregulating cell-survival signalling pathways and down-regulating apoptotic pathways. ...
Patient-derived organoids model treatment response of metastatic gastrointestinal cancers.
(AMER ASSOC ADVANCEMENT SCIENCE, 2018-02-23)
Patient-derived organoids (PDOs) have recently emerged as robust preclinical models; however, their potential to predict clinical outcomes in patients has remained unclear. We report on a living biobank of PDOs from ...
Molecular profiling and combinatorial activity of CCT068127: a potent CDK2 and CDK9 inhibitor.
(WILEY, 2018-03-01)
Deregulation of the cyclin-dependent kinases (CDKs) has been implicated in the pathogenesis of multiple cancer types. Consequently, CDKs have garnered intense interest as therapeutic targets for the treatment of cancer. ...
Multiparametric Magnetic Resonance Imaging of Prostate Cancer Bone Disease: Correlation With Bone Biopsy Histological and Molecular Features.
(LIPPINCOTT WILLIAMS & WILKINS, 2018-02-01)
OBJECTIVES: The aim of this study was to correlate magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) bone metastases with histological and molecular features of bone metastases. MATERIALS AND ...
Growth Trajectories, Breast Size, and Breast-Tissue Composition in a British Prebirth Cohort of Young Women.
(OXFORD UNIV PRESS INC, 2018-06-01)
Mammographic percent density, the proportion of fibroglandular tissue in the breast, is a strong risk factor for breast cancer, but its determinants in young women are unknown. We examined associations of magnetic resonance ...
Characterisation of fibrosis in chemically-induced rat mammary carcinomas using multi-modal endogenous contrast MRI on a 1.5T clinical platform.
(SPRINGER, 2018-04-01)
OBJECTIVES: To determine the ability of multi-parametric, endogenous contrast MRI to detect and quantify fibrosis in a chemically-induced rat model of mammary carcinoma. METHODS: Female Sprague-Dawley rats (n=18) were ...
