Correlation between radon levels and lung cancer mortality rates: experimental and theoretical problems
Radon is a radioactive gas and is present in most earth materials such as soil, stone, air, water and others. Comprehensive and scientifically rigorous studies found a low lung cancer mortality rate in high radon areas. It is opposite to the linear no-threshold hypothesis (LNTH), which is a popular theory in the field of radiation safety. The fact is explained by the theory of energy transfer ...

Czech studies of lung cancer risk from radon
Epidemiological evidence of lung cancer risk from radon is based mainly on studies of men employed underground in mines. One such study among uranium miners was established in 1970 by Josef Sevc. During the 1980s, another occupational study followed. In 1989, Sevc designed a new large cohort study among inhabitants exposed to high radon concentrations in homes. The paper reports recent results ...

Poly(propyleneimine) dendrimers as potential siRNA delivery nanocarrier: from structure to function
The goal of the present investigation is to reveal the role of the Poly(propyleneimine) (PPI) dendrimer structure on the siRNA nanoparticles formation, facilitation of cell internalisation, and sequence specific knockdown of targeted genes. It was found that the higher generations of PPI dendrimers (G4 and G5) most effectively initiated the complexation of siRNA into discrete nanoparticles when ...

Design and analysis of nanowire sensor array for prostate cancer detection
Prostate cancer is one of the major cancer affecting men in India. After lung cancer, prostate cancer has caused large number of deaths in India. Nanowire is the biosensor used for detection of cancer. In this paper, we present a design of nanowire array sensor for prostate cancer detection. A sensor array of 8 × 8 elements is designed to capture the PSA present in the blood that helps in ...

A Novel Potential Target for CAR-T Cell Therapy in Human Solid Tumors Discovered
At present, chimeric antigen receptor T cell therapy (CAR-T) has made significant achievements in the treatment of specific hematological cancers, allowing patients with relapsed/refractory disease to survive longer and become healthier, but in clinical studies, cell therapy has actually not been successful in the treatment of patients with solid tumors, in part due to the lack of tumor targets ...

An Emerging Aim: ADC Target Protein - Nectin-4
The biologics license application (BLA) has been accepted for Enfortumab Vedotin for the treatment of locally advanced or metastatic urothelial carcinoma in patients who have previously received PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors and platinum-containing chemotherapy. Enfortumab Vedotin is the first domestically submitted targeted antibody-drug conjugate that specifically targets Nectin-4. Enfortumab ...

Demonstration of radiation-induced bystander effect in a human lung cancer cell line
The purpose of this study was to investigate whether a bystander effect is manifested in a large cell lung tumoural cell line (QU-DB). For induction of a bystander effect in non-irradiated cells the 'medium transfer' technique was employed, and to observe the effect the cytokinesis-block micronucleus assay was applied. Results showed that irradiated and bystander cells demonstrated higher numbers ...

The Future Has Come, The Electric Adjustable Stand up Desk Has Become The Trend of The Times
Sedentary is harmful! The electric adjustable stand up desk turned out to be so important: According to the University of Regensburg in Germany, if you sit for 2 more hours a day, the risk of lung cancer will increase by 6%, the risk of colon cancer will increase by 8% and the risk of women with uterine cancer increases by 10%. According to the findings of the American Cancer Society, the ...

Comparison of genomic signatures of non-small cell lung cancer recurrence between two microarray platforms
Abstract Background Cancer genomic signatures may vary using different platforms. We compared the differential gene expression in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) between two platforms in order to find the most relevant genomic signatures of tumor recurrence. Materials and Methods We analyzed gene expression in frozen lung cancer tissue from 59 selected patients who had undergone surgical ...

Introduction and Detection Methods for Phytochemicals
What Are Phytochemicals? Phytochemicals are natural compounds that have only been discovered so far and are natural food pigments. The human body is unable to produce them and must obtain them from food. Soy isoflavones in soybeans, lycopene in tomatoes, catechins in green tea, carotenoids in carrots, zeaxanthin, polyphenols, etc., are all phytochemicals. Classification and Functions of Common ...

A new model using artificial intelligence to predict recurrence after surgical resection of stage I-II non-small cell lung cancer.
Abstract Background: Five-year survival for stage I-II lung cancer is quite low even after complete surgical resection. Current guidelines recommend adjuvant treatment only for selected patients with stage II or higher disease. A prediction model that identifies patients at high risk of recurrence who may benefit from adjuvant treatment is greatly needed. Many existing prediction models include ...
