Tumour radiobiology beyond fractionation
Historically it has been shown repeatedly that single high doses of radiation do not allow a therapeutic differential between tumor and critical normal tissues but dose fractionation does. The purpose of conventional dose fractionation is to increase dose to the tumor while preserving normal tissue function. Tumors are generally irradiated with 2Gy dose per fraction delivered daily to a more or...
متن کاملTumour microenvironment and angiogenesis
Anti-angiogenic therapy has increased the progression-free survival of many cancer patients but has had little effect on overall survival, even in colon cancer (average 6–8 weeks) due to resistance. The current licensed targeted therapies all inhibit VEGF signalling (Table 1). Many mechanisms of resistance to anti-VEGF therapy have been identified that enable cancers to bypass the angiogenic bl...
متن کاملIntroduction to the Tumour Microenvironment Review Series
tumour cells that lead to life-threatening malignancy. These studies have provided a comprehensive understanding of the role of oncogenes and tumour suppressor genes, as well as their associated signal transduction pathways, in cancer [1]. In recent years, it has become clear that a complete understanding of the many steps and processes that occur during cancer progression must include the resp...
متن کاملBeyond the Tumour: Breast Cancer Phenotypes
Starting from an acknowledgment of the plurality of epistemic motivations driving phenotype representations, our main contribution is a distinction between six categories of human agents as individuals and groups focused around particular epistemic interests. We analyse the corresponding impact of these groups and individuals on representation types, mapping and reasoning scenarios, using the e...
متن کاملMicroRNA regulation of endothelial TREX1 reprograms the tumour microenvironment
Rather than targeting tumour cells directly, elements of the tumour microenvironment can be modulated to sensitize tumours to the effects of therapy. Here we report a unique mechanism by which ectopic microRNA-103 can manipulate tumour-associated endothelial cells to enhance tumour cell death. Using gain-and-loss of function approaches, we show that miR-103 exacerbates DNA damage and inhibits a...
