Ionizing radiationBrainNeurogenesisOxidative stressInflammationCognitive impairmentEpidemiological studies on the atomic-bomb survivors, cancer survivors and occupational cohorts provide strong evidence for multifaceted damage to brain after ionizing radiation. Radiation-induced late effects may manifest as brain ...
. Also, cellular phone use, radio frequency exposure, and electromagnetic radiation have also been found to be risk factors for brain cancer (Group, 2010; Kheifets, Sussman, & Preston-Martin, 1999; Schüz et al., 2006). Interestingly, individuals with asthma and other allergic disorders such ...
Preclinical models of brain metastases may use cancer cell lines, patient-derived tissue, or co-culture models as the source of tumor cells. These may then be administered through heterotopic or orthotopic transplantation. After engraftment, radiation treatment can be given to model whole-brain radiat...
Brain cancer cells have the resistant ability toward radiation Radiation exposure has been shown previously to reduce the survival rates of various glioblastoma cell lines – including A172, U87MG, and GBM2. As is shown in Fig. 1, the majority of cells perished during the culture period, leavi...
The left side has higher radiation exposure; even with these small numbers, there is a statistical difference than the expected 1:1 side involvement ratio. Recent Analyses of Cancer Risk Associated With Interventional Procedures Recently, two studies showed for the first time a statistical difference...
There is no connection between cellphone use and brain cancer, suggests a review into the potential risks of cellphone radiation commissioned by the World Health Organization and published this week. This includes people who spend all day on their smartphones, according to a report in The Washingto...
radiation could cause non-thermal effects. Carpenter responded that "there are literally hundreds of experimental studies in animals and cells that show effects without heating." But, he said, the strongest evidence comes from epidemiology, specifically the increase in brain cancer af...
Large population studies suggest that cranial exposure to low dose radiation increases the risks of tumor development. In addition, modest doses of therapeutic cranial radiation have been linked with the development of brain cancer. Although a causal association between scatter radiation in the cath ...
Yttrium-90 (90Y) trans-arterial radioembolization (RE) has been used to treat human primary and metastatic liver cancer in the USA for over 20 years. Catheter-directed RE delivers high radiation doses, sometimes up to 1000 Gy thanks to the selective targeting of hypervascular tumors, compare...
