Modulating Tumour Hypoxia in Prostate Cancer Through Exercise: The Impact of Redox Signalling on Radiosensitivity - Sports Medicine - Open

Source : https://sportsmedicine-open.springeropen.com/articles/10.1186/s40798-022-00436-9

Prostate cancer is a complex disease affecting millions of men globally. Radiotherapy (RT) is a common treatment modality although treatment efficacy is dependent upon several features within the tumour microenvironment...


Conclusions/Relevance: In light of this preclinical evidence, we propose systemic changes in redox signalling with exercise activate redox-sensitive factors within the TME and improve tumour hypoxia and treatment outcomes, when combined with RT. To this end, we suggest a connection between exercise, ROS and tumour growth kinetics, highlighting...

Experimental investigation of dynamic real-time rotation-including dose reconstruction during prostate tracking radiotherapy - PubMed

Source : https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/35395104/

In a series of phantom experiments, online real-time rotation-including dose reconstruction was performed for the first time. The calculated motion-induced errors agreed well with film measurements. The dose reconstruction provides...


Conclusions: In a series of phantom experiments, online real-time rotation-including dose reconstruction was performed for the first time. The calculated motion-induced errors agreed well with film measurements. The dose reconstruction provides a valuable tool for monitoring dose delivery and investigating the efficacy of advanced...

CEMIP promotes extracellular matrix-detached prostate cancer cells survival by inhibiting ferroptosis - PubMed

CEMIP promotes extracellular matrix-detached prostate cancer cells survival by inhibiting ferroptosis - PubMed

Source : https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/35363929/

Cells detached from the extracellular matrix (ECM) can trigger different modes of cell death, and the survival of ECM-detached cells is one of the prerequisites for the metastatic cascade. Ferroptosis,...


Conclusion: Our findings delineate a novel role of CEMIP in ferroptosis resistance during ECM detachment and provide new insights into therapeutic strategies for metastatic PCa.
