HO-1 is encoded by HMOX1 with a molecular weight of around 32 kDa (also called heat shock protein 32; HSP32) [3]. HMOX2 is constitutively expressed to encode a 36 kDa HO-2 protein, mainly functioning to maintain the basal heme metabolism and may also play a role in inflammatory ...

[49]. By exploiting the Bragg peak dose distribution, particle therapy could allow higher doses to be delivered to the tumor area without causing excessive dose to the surrounding normal organs, including the heart and lungs, as demonstrated in several retrospective studies [50, 51]. This ...
Many first-line cancer therapies result in the activation of a fibrotic wound healing response, leading to the generation of fibrosis in and around the tumor3, resulting in accelerated tumor progression, promotion of resistance and relapse, and increased metastatic dissemination25,26. Treatment of tu...

With the central importance of computed tomography imaging for both early detection and volumetric lung cancer assessment, strategic issues around the development of imaging and ensuring its quality are critical to ensure continued progress against this most lethal cancer....
Around 20% and 25% of LC patients had hypertension and COPD, respectively. These patients have an increased likelihood of having concurrent comorbidities, with COPD being commonly seen in combination with T2DM, cardiovascular disease, and congestive heart failure [38]. In addition to co-morbidities...
