A new way to fight liver cancers ; Miami Valley Hospital is using radiation filled beads on tumors.Ben Sutherly
Catheter-based RS therapy delivers beads embedded with radioisotope yttrium-90 (Y-90) to destroy tumors in the liver while sparing much of the surrounding healthy tissue. Cone-beam CT imaging is used to distinguish segments of the liver, provide a detailed view of its complex vasculature, and ...
Radioembolization is a technique used for liver cancer in which radioactive beads called microspheres are injected into the artery feeding the tumor (ACS 2014a; Kishore 2017). Brachytherapy implants may stay in place for minutes to days, or in some cases, permanently. The intensity of the ...

Except for a recent report using interferon-stimulated autologous monocytes to treat ovarian cancer [15], to our knowledge, very few reports describe the therapeutic use of monocytes as a cellular therapy. Macrophages were recently infused safely in patients with liver cirrhosis [16]. Monocytes are...
After using Dynal beads coated with CD31 antibody (110.35; Life Technologies), the cells were plated into a gelatin- coated T-75 flask. After 1–2 weeks (or if the attached cell clones are observed in dish), cells were used for experiments between passages 2 and 6 as described previously...
Beads were washed three times with lysis buffer and eluted by boiling in SDS sample buffer. Immunoprecipitates were analyzed by immunoblotting using the indicated antibodies. Large scale IPs were performed on EGFRvIII-expressing astrocytes using the same protocol and samples were submitted for LC-MS/...
4. In situ cancer vaccination is a therapeutic strategy that aims to convert a patient’s own tumor into a nidus for presentation of tumor-specific antigens in a way that will stimulate and diversify an anti-tumor T cell response5. Such approaches may improve the response rates for ICB ...
Pulmonary endothelial cells were isolated by magnetic beads coated with antibody (rat anti-mouse) to PECAM-1 (BD Pharmin- gen), and seeded for subculture (passage 1). At approximately passage 2, cells were incubated with fluorescently labelled diacetylated LDL followed by FACS sorting for further...
