Sonodynamic therapy with 5-aminolevulinic acid and focused ultrasound for deep-seated intracranial glioma in rat.
BACKGROUND 5-Aminolevulinic acid (5-ALA) has already been applied clinically as a photosensitizer. In this study, sonodynamically induced selective antitumour effect of 5-ALA for deep-seated lesions was evaluated. MATERIALS AND METHODS First, normal rat brains were sonicated via a transducer placed on the dural surface to confirm safe acoustic conditions for normal rat brains. One week after ...
متن کاملGene Therapy for Malignant Gliomas
Retroviruses are enveloped RNA viruses that possess the ability to integrate into the host cell genome by transcribing DNA from their RNA template via viral reverse transcriptase. The transcribed viral DNA is then integrated into the host cell genome nonspecifically. There is relative specificity for tumors because, except for lentiviruses, retroviral DNA preferentially integrates into the geno...
متن کاملNoninvasive functional neurosurgery using transcranial MR imaging-guided focused ultrasound.
UNLABELLED Transcranial magnetic resonance imaging-guided focused ultrasound (tcMRgFUS) is a novel technique to supplement the spectrum of established neurosurgical interventions. In contrast to traditional ablative procedures, tcMRgFUS is noninvasive and entirely imaging-guided with continuous temperature measurements at and around the target in real time. It has no trajectory restrictions and...
متن کاملTherapeutic Potential of Transcranial Focused Ultrasound for Rett Syndrome
Rett syndrome (RTT) is a severe neurodevelopmental disorder occurring almost exclusively in females and is caused by loss-of-function mutations in the gene encoding methyl-CpG-binding protein 2 (MeCP2) in the majority of cases. MeCP2 is essential for the normal function of nerve cells, including neuronal development, maturation, and synaptic activity. RTT is characterized by normal early develo...
