Related ArticlesThe Synchronization Manifesto: A critique of whole-culture synchronization. FEBS J. 2019 Aug 25;: Authors: Cooper S Abstract The field of cell cycle studies is dominated by the incorrect idea that one can treat an entire culture to produce a synchronized culture. If this predominant method cannot work, at all, then an enormous amount of work on the cell cycle must be re-evaluated. Here, criteria are presented for determining whether a...

FEBS J. 2019 Aug 18;: Authors: Liu J, Yao Q, Xiao L, Ma W, Li F, Lai B, Wang N Abstract The E3 ubiquitin ligase neural precursor cell-expressed developmentally down-regulated protein 4 (NEDD4) plays a crucial role in governing a number of signaling pathways, including insulin and autophagy signaling. However, the molecular mechanism by which NEDD4 gene is transcriptionally...

Lymph node involvement is an important determinant of treatment and prognosis in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and must be determined via surgical lymph node (LN) evaluation. However, lymphadenectomy is associated with multiple significant morbidities. Recent studies have suggested LN evaluation can be foregone in some or all patients with NSCLC ≤ 2.0 cm. Our objective was to identify if these patients may be safely spared the morbidity of lymphadenectomy. (Source: The Journal of Thoracic and...
Authors: Cheng Z Abstract Autophagy controls cellular remodeling and quality control. Dysregulated autophagy has been implicated in several human diseases including obesity, diabetes, cardiovascular disease, neurodegenerative diseases, and cancer. Current evidence has revealed that FoxO (forkhead box class O) transcription factors have a multifaceted role in autophagy regulation and dysregulation. Nuclear FoxOs transactivate genes that control the formation of autophagosomes and their fusion...

Results are reported from a matched case-control analysis assessing toxicity related to radiation therapy in a large sample of U.S. veterans afflicted with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and rectal cancer. When comparing IBD and non-IBD rectal cancer patients treated with radiation therapy, patients with IBD experienced similar rates of toxicity and thus should be considered for neoadjuvant radiation therapy when otherwise indicated.

We initially aimed to ascertain the application value of inflammatory indexes in predicting severe acute radiation pneumonitis (SARP). Furthermore, a novel nomogram and risk classification system integrating clinicopathological, dosimetric and biological parameters were built to provide individualized risk assessment and accurate prediction of SARP in patients with esophageal cancer (EC) who received radiotherapy (RT).

Synchrotron Microbeam radiation-therapy (MRT) is a unique treatment that spatially distributes the X-ray beam into several microbeams of very high dose. MRT significantly delays the tumor regrowth compared to uniform radiotherapy. The underling mechanisms include tumor vascular disruption, senescence, inflammatory and anti-tumor immune responses. MRT could be considered as a new and promising therapeutic approach in the treatment of radioresistant melanoma. (Source: International Journal of Radiation...

ConclusionsExercise training reduces pro-inflammatory markers in cancer survivors, with the strongest evidence for combined training and for prostate and breast cancer survivors. Further research is warranted to determine if these changes are clinically relevant or are associated with improvements in symptoms. To strengthen future research, focusing on novel immune populations that include functional parameters and standardized reporting of key immune outcomes is recommended. (Source: Brain, Behavior,...

This paradoxical...
