Background: Radiation‐induced acute lung damages are refractory side effects in lung cancer radiotherapy (RT). Prospective study investigates the possible role of piperine (Pip) as anti-inflammatory agent against γ-rays-induced lung tissue lesions in an applicable rat model. Materials and Methods: Fifty-six Sprague-Dawley rats were divided into four groups: Control, rats were administered...

this case series reports 100 patients with lung cancer and their presenting neurologic symptoms and sings. 78% of patients were maleand 22% were female. mean age was 62±1.04 years with a peak age between 65 and 75 years. most patients presented with pulmonary problems (58%) and neurologic deficits as the presenting manifestations were found to be 30% along with pulmonary symptoms and 12% laking...

Small Cell Lung Cancer (SCLC) is a low-differentiated neuroendocrine tumor with rapid growth, early metastasis and sensitivity to radiotherapy chemotherapy. It highly recurrence rate. And there lacking effective treatment now. As an active research direction at present, anti-angiogenic drugs are not only widely used in non-small cell lung cancer other tumors, but also have certain effects small...

cadmium has been known to be harmful to human health, mainly via contaminated drinking water, food supplies, tobacco and industrial pollutants. the aim of this study was to determine the ability of cadmium chloride (cdcl 2 ) to cause cell death in the human lung carcinoma cell line (calu-6). the cells were grown in rpmi-1640 medium supplemented with 10% fcs, penicillin/streptomycin (100 u/ml, 1...

Objective(s): Prostate cancer is the world’s leading cause of cancer and the second cause of cancer-related death in men after lung cancer. Differentiation of prostate adenocarcinoma from benign prostate lesions and hyperplasia sometimes cannot be done on the basis of morphologic findings. Considering the fact that in the prostate adenocarcinoma there is no basal cell layer, basal cell markers ...
