  1. 1. DNA damage affecting thyroidal iodide transport: an explanation to thyroid stunning

    Author : Madeleine Nordén; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : thyroid; radioiodide; thyroid stunning; NIS; cell cycle; genotoxic stress; DNA damage; H2AX; ATM;

    Abstract : 131I is widely used clinically in the treatment of Graves´ disease and differentiated thyroid cancer. However, cellular and molecular effects of 131I irradiation in relation to absorbed dose are poorly documented. READ MORE

  2. 2. In vitro radiobiological effects of 131I on thyroid cells: towards a mechanistic understanding of thyroid stunning

    Author : Nirmal Bhogal; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : thyroid; radioiodide; stunning; 131I; stress response; DNA damage; Chk2; H2AX; micronuclei; cell cycle;

    Abstract : .... READ MORE

  3. 3. Measurements of the DNA double-strand break response

    Author : Aida Muslimovic; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; DSB response; cancer patients; H2AX phosphorylation;

    Abstract : Radiotherapy and some chemotherapeutic drugs kill cancer cells by induction of the extremely toxic DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs). Measurements of the DSB response in patients during therapy could allow personalized dosing to improve tumor response and minimize side effects. READ MORE

  4. 4. Tools for the Advancement of Radiopharmaceutical Therapy

    Author : Emma Mellhammar; Forskningsgruppen för Systemisk strålterapi; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Radiopharmaceutical therapy; Nuclear medicine; Monte Carlo simulation; Intratherapeutic preclinical PET; Alpha particles; Beta Particles; radionuclides; Radiobiology; γ-H2AX; Dosimetry;

    Abstract : Radiopharmaceutical therapy is used to treat cancers and other diseases with radiolabeled pharmaceuticals. The treatment targets specific cells, and the emitted ionizing radiation cause cytotoxic damage. Dosimetry is performed to estimate the absorbed dose from the energy deposited in the body. READ MORE

  5. 5. Quantification of Radiation Induced DNA Damage Response in Normal Skin Exposed in Clinical Settings

    Author : Martin Simonsson; Ingela Turesson; Gunilla Enblad; Dag Rune Olsen; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; DNA damage response; low-dose hypersensitivity; dose response; normal tissue; epidermis; dermis; keratinocyte; fractionated radiotherapy; DNA double strand break; DSB; foci; gamma-H2AX; 53BP1; p21; checkpoint; apoptosis; mitosis; micro-RNA; miR-34a; Oncology; Onkologi; Oncology; Onkologi;

    Abstract : The structure, function and accessibility of epidermal skin provide aunique opportunity to study the DNA damage response (DDR) of a normaltissue. The in vivo response can be examined in detail, at a molecularlevel, and further associated to the structural changes, observed at atissue level. READ MORE
