Acute hypoxia in tumors: implications for modifiers of radiation effects

International Journal of Radiation Oncology, Biology, Physics

Abstract

Radioresistant hypoxic cells have been shown to occur in nearly all the animal tumors studied to date. Furthermore, there is a large amount of evidence, albeit indirect, that hypoxic cells exist and impair the effectiveness of radiation therapy in some human cancers. Surprisingly little is known, however, about the natural history of such hypoxic cells. Recently in our laboratories, we have developed methods which enable us to select and analyse cells from tumors as a function of their distance from the tumor blood supply. Utilizing this technique, we have been able to demonstrate using SCCVII tumors greater than or equal to 500 mg that even cells close to the blood supply may become hypoxic at any particular time. This information provides direct evidence that, at least for that tumor, hypoxia can result from transient fluctuations in blood perfusion. The existence of acutely, as well as, chronically hypoxic cells within tumors has several implications for treatment strategies. Treatments designed to increase oxygen content in the blood may not be particularly effective in sensitizing acutely hypoxic cells. However small, freely diffusable radiosensitizers would distribute throughout the tumor, and should be equally effective ...Continue Reading

COVID-19

Coronaviruses encompass a large family of viruses that cause the common cold as well as more serious diseases, such as the ongoing outbreak of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19; formally known as 2019-nCoV). Coronaviruses can spread from animals to humans; symptoms include fever, cough, shortness of breath, and breathing difficulties; in more severe cases, infection can lead to death. This feed covers recent research on COVID-19.

Blastomycosis

Blastomycosis fungal infections spread through inhaling Blastomyces dermatitidis spores. Discover the latest research on blastomycosis fungal infections here.

Nuclear Pore Complex in ALS/FTD

Alterations in nucleocytoplasmic transport, controlled by the nuclear pore complex, may be involved in the pathomechanism underlying multiple neurodegenerative diseases including Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis and Frontotemporal Dementia. Here is the latest research on the nuclear pore complex in ALS and FTD.

Applications of Molecular Barcoding

The concept of molecular barcoding is that each original DNA or RNA molecule is attached to a unique sequence barcode. Sequence reads having different barcodes represent different original molecules, while sequence reads having the same barcode are results of PCR duplication from one original molecule. Discover the latest research on molecular barcoding here.

Chronic Fatigue Syndrome

Chronic fatigue syndrome is a disease characterized by unexplained disabling fatigue; the pathology of which is incompletely understood. Discover the latest research on chronic fatigue syndrome here.

Evolution of Pluripotency

Pluripotency refers to the ability of a cell to develop into three primary germ cell layers of the embryo. This feed focuses on the mechanisms that underlie the evolution of pluripotency. Here is the latest research.

Position Effect Variegation

Position Effect Variagation occurs when a gene is inactivated due to its positioning near heterochromatic regions within a chromosome. Discover the latest research on Position Effect Variagation here.

STING Receptor Agonists

Stimulator of IFN genes (STING) are a group of transmembrane proteins that are involved in the induction of type I interferon that is important in the innate immune response. The stimulation of STING has been an active area of research in the treatment of cancer and infectious diseases. Here is the latest research on STING receptor agonists.

Microbicide

Microbicides are products that can be applied to vaginal or rectal mucosal surfaces with the goal of preventing, or at least significantly reducing, the transmission of sexually transmitted infections. Here is the latest research on microbicides.
