Alterations of microRNAs in solid cancers and their prognostic value
(2010)MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are evolutionarily conserved, naturally abundant, small, regulatory non-coding RNAs that inhibit gene expression at the post-transcriptional level in a sequence-specific manner. Each miRNA represses the ... -
Flash proton radiotherapy spares normal epithelial and mesenchymal tissues while preserving sarcoma response
(2021)In studies of electron and proton radiotherapy, ultrahigh dose rates of FLASH radiotherapy appear to produce fewer toxicities than standard dose rates while maintaining local tumor control. FLASHproton radiotherapy (F-PRT) ... -
Intraoperative radiation therapy (IORT) in head and neck cancer: A systematic review
(2016)Background: Multimodality therapy constitutes the standard treatment of advanced and recurrent head and neck cancer. Since locoregional recurrence comprises a major obstacle in attaining cure, the role of intraoperative ... -
Is locally advanced head-neck cancer one more candidate for accelerated hypofractionation?
(2021)Background/Aim: Hypofractionated accelerated radiotherapy (HypoAR) is widely applied for the treatment of early laryngeal cancer. Its role in locally advanced head-neck cancer (LA-HNC) is unexplored. Patients and Methods: ... -
Meta-analysis of BCOR rearranged sarcomas: challenging the therapeutic approach
(2021)Introduction: BCOR rearranged sarcomas comprise a group of malignant mesenchymal tumors that until recently were classified as Ewing sarcomas or as undifferentiated round cell sarcomas. The identification of alterations ... -
Myeloid-derived suppressor cells in prostate cancer: Present knowledge and future perspectives
(2022)Several lines of research are being investigated to better understand mechanisms implicated in response or resistance to immune checkpoint blockade in prostate cancer (PCa). Myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs) have ... -
Myeloid-derived suppressor cells: Major figures that shape the immunosuppressive and angiogenic network in cancer
(2019)Myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs) constitute a vast population of immature myeloid cells implicated in various conditions. Most notably, their role in cancer is of great complexity. They exert immunosuppressive ... -
Perioperative radiotherapy versus surgery alone for retroperitoneal sarcomas: A systematic review and meta-analysis
(2020)There is no clear evidence on whether radiotherapy (RT) improves treatment result in patients with retroperitoneal sarcomas (RPS). A systematic literature search was performed using PubMed, Scopus and CENTRAL databases. ... -
Prevalence, distribution and factors associated with the presence and the potential for malignancy of cutaneous neoplasms in 174 dogs admitted to a clinic in northern Greece
(2002)One hundred and seventy-four dogs diagnosed with cutaneous neoplasms in the Animal Medical and Surgical Clinic, Faculty of Veterinary Medicine, Aristotle University of Thessaloniki, were studied. Thirty-one types of neoplasm ...
