Inclusion of a Charge Sharing Correction Algorithm Into an X-Ray Photon Counting Spectral Detector Simulation Framework
(IEEE-INST ELECTRICAL ELECTRONICS ENGINEERS INC, 2021-07-01)
Feasibility of MR-guided ultrahypofractionated radiotherapy in 5, 2 or 1 fractions for prostate cancer.
(ELSEVIER IRELAND LTD, 2021-01-01)
The drive towards hypofractionated prostate radiotherapy is motivated by a low alpha/beta ratio for prostate cancer (1 to 3 Gy) compared to surrounding organs at risk, implying an improved therapeutic ratio with increasing ...
Uncovering an allosteric mode of action for a selective inhibitor of human Bloom syndrome protein.
(eLife Sciences Publications, Ltd, 2021-03-01)
BLM (Bloom syndrome protein) is a RECQ-family helicase involved in the dissolution of complex DNA structures and repair intermediates. Synthetic lethality analysis implicates BLM as a promising target in a range of cancers ...
HOX genes promote cell proliferation and are potential therapeutic targets in adrenocortical tumours.
(Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2021-02-16)
BACKGROUND: Understanding the pathways that drive adrenocortical carcinoma (ACC) is essential to the development of more effective therapies. This study investigates the role of the transcription factor HOXB9 and other HOX ...
FRMD6 has tumor suppressor functions in prostate cancer.
(SPRINGERNATURE, 2021-01-28)
Available tools for prostate cancer (PC) prognosis are suboptimal but may be improved by better knowledge about genes driving tumor aggressiveness. Here, we identified FRMD6 (FERM domain-containing protein 6) as an aberrantly ...
Combining evidence for and against pathogenicity for variants in cancer susceptibility genes: CanVIG-UK consensus recommendations.
(BMJ PUBLISHING GROUP, 2021-05-01)
Accurate classification of variants in cancer susceptibility genes (CSGs) is key for correct estimation of cancer risk and management of patients. Consistency in the weighting assigned to individual elements of evidence ...
An optimized b-value distribution for triexponential intravoxel incoherent motion (IVIM) in the liver.
(WILEY, 2021-04-01)
PURPOSE: To find an optimized b-value distribution for reproducible triexponential intravoxel incoherent motion (IVIM) exams in the liver. METHODS: A numeric optimization of b-value distributions was performed using the ...
SuperHistopath: A Deep Learning Pipeline for Mapping Tumor Heterogeneity on Low-Resolution Whole-Slide Digital Histopathology Images.
(FRONTIERS MEDIA SA, 2021-01-20)
High computational cost associated with digital pathology image analysis approaches is a challenge towards their translation in routine pathology clinic. Here, we propose a computationally efficient framework (SuperHistopath), ...
SOLLID - a single centre study to develop methods to investigate the effects of low radiation doses within nuclear medicine, to enable multicentre epidemiological investigations.
(BRITISH INST RADIOLOGY, 2021-03-01)
There is continuing debate concerning the risks of secondary malignancies from low levels of radiation exposure. The current model used for radiation protection is predicated on the assumption that even very low levels of ...
Mesothelin-targeted CAR-T cell therapy for solid tumors.
(TAYLOR & FRANCIS LTD, 2021-04-03)
Introduction: Mesothelin (MSLN) is a tumor differentiation antigen normally restricted to the body's mesothelial surfaces, but significantly overexpressed in a broad range of solid tumors. For this reason, MSLN has emerged ...
