3D tumour spheroids for the prediction of the effects of radiation and hyperthermia treatments.
(NATURE PORTFOLIO, 2020-02-03)
For multimodality therapies such as the combination of hyperthermia and radiation, quantification of biological effects is key for dose prescription and response prediction. Tumour spheroids have a microenvironment that ...
Selective protection of human cardiomyocytes from anthracycline cardiotoxicity by small molecule inhibitors of MAP4K4.
(NATURE PORTFOLIO, 2020-07-21)
Given the poor track record to date of animal models for creating cardioprotective drugs, human pluripotent stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes (hPSC-CMs) have been proposed as a therapeutically relevant human platform to ...
Alternative catalytic residues in the active site of Esco acetyltransferases.
(NATURE PORTFOLIO, 2020-06-17)
Cohesin is a protein complex whose core subunits, Smc1, Smc3, Scc1, and SA1/SA2 form a ring-like structure encircling the DNA. Cohesins play a key role in the expression, repair, and segregation of eukaryotic genomes. ...
Quantitative diffusion-weighted MRI response assessment in rhabdomyosarcoma: an international retrospective study on behalf of the European paediatric Soft tissue sarcoma Study Group Imaging Committee.
(SPRINGER, 2023-11-01)
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the feasibility of diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (DW-MRI) as a predictive imaging marker after neoadjuvant chemotherapy in patients with rhabdomyosarcoma. MATERIAL AND METHODS: We ...
Alveolar rhabdomyosarcoma with regional nodal involvement: Results of a combined analysis from two cooperative groups.
(WILEY, 2021-03-01)
BACKGROUND: Treatment of children and adolescents with alveolar rhabdomyosarcoma (ARMS) and regional nodal involvement (N1) have been approached differently by North American and European cooperative groups. In order to ...
A rapid review of evidence and recommendations from the SIOPE radiation oncology working group to help mitigate for reduced paediatric radiotherapy capacity during the COVID-19 pandemic or other crises.
(ELSEVIER IRELAND LTD, 2020-07-01)
OBJECTIVE: To derive evidence-based recommendations for the optimal utilisation of resources during unexpected shortage of radiotherapy capacity. METHODS AND MATERIALS: We have undertaken a rapid review of published ...
The need for consensus on delineation and dose constraints of dentofacial structures in paediatric radiotherapy: Outcomes of a SIOP Europe survey.
(ELSEVIER IRELAND LTD, 2023-11-01)
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Children receiving radiotherapy for head-and-neck tumours often experience severe dentofacial side effects. Despite this, recommendations for contouring and dose constraints to dentofacial structures ...
Chronic airflow obstruction attributable to poverty in the multinational Burden of Obstructive Lung Disease (BOLD) study.
(BMJ PUBLISHING GROUP, 2023-09-01)
Poverty is strongly associated with all-cause and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) mortality. Less is known about the contribution of poverty to spirometrically defined chronic airflow obstruction (CAO)-a key ...
Brachytherapy for rhabdomyosarcoma: Survey of international clinical practice and development of guidelines.
(Elsevier BV, 2024-04-07)
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to address the lack of published data on the use of brachytherapy in pediatric rhabdomyosarcoma by describing current practice as starting point to develop consensus ...
Novel therapeutic approaches for pediatric diencephalic tumors: improving functional outcomes.
(FRONTIERS MEDIA SA, 2023-10-10)
Pediatric diencephalic tumors represent a histopathologically and molecularly diverse group of neoplasms arising in the central part of the brain and involving eloquent structures, including the hypothalamic-pituitary axis ...
