Dichloroacetate induces autophagy in colorectal cancer cells and tumours.
(NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP, 2014-07-15)
BACKGROUND: Dichloroacetate (DCA) has been found to have antitumour properties. METHODS: We investigated the cellular and metabolic responses to DCA treatment and recovery in human colorectal (HT29, HCT116 WT and HCT116 ...
A new method for the high-precision assessment of tumor changes in response to treatment.
(OXFORD UNIV PRESS, 2018-08-01)
MOTIVATION: Imaging demonstrates that preclinical and human tumors are heterogeneous, i.e. a single tumor can exhibit multiple regions that behave differently during both development and also in response to treatment. The ...
A cellular automaton model for spheroid response to radiation and hyperthermia treatments.
(NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP, 2019-11-27)
Thermo-radiosensitisation is a promising approach for treatment of radio-resistant tumours such as those containing hypoxic subregions. Response prediction and treatment planning should account for tumour response ...
Combining radiation with hyperthermia: a multiscale model informed by in vitro experiments.
(ROYAL SOC, 2018-01-01)
Combined radiotherapy and hyperthermia offer great potential for the successful treatment of radio-resistant tumours through thermo-radiosensitization. Tumour response heterogeneity, due to intrinsic, or micro-environmentally ...
Cationic lipid-based nanoparticles mediate functional delivery of acetate to tumor cells in vivo leading to significant anticancer effects.
(DOVE MEDICAL PRESS LTD, 2017-01-01)
Metabolic reengineering using nanoparticle delivery represents an innovative therapeutic approach to normalizing the deregulation of cellular metabolism underlying many diseases, including cancer. Here, we demonstrated a ...
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 ...
