The intense but transient increase in nuclear magnetic resonance signal provided by dynamic nuclear polarization (DNP) has enabled a range of new applications, including rapid, minimally-invasive metabolic imaging at the second timescale. This chapter prov ...
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the third most frequent neoplastic disorder and is a main cause of tumor-related mortality, as many patients progress to stage IV metastatic CRC. Standard care consists of combination chemotherapy (FOLFIRI or FOLFOX). Patients wi ...
An in-depth analysis of modern technologies could represent the base for the success of the High Luminosity Large Hadron Collider experiments. The requirement is a new reliable electronics in 1Grad-TID environments. For the purpose, single devices in TSMC ...
Endothelial cells (ECs) in blood vessels under formation are stabilized by the recruitment of pericytes, both in normal tissues and during angiogenesis in pathologic situations, including neoplasia. In the tumor vasculature, besides supporting the function ...
Ruthenium-arene complexes bearing the 1,3,5-triaza-7-phosphatricyclo-[3.3.1.1]decane ligand, namely, RAPTA compounds, are widely investigated as potential antimetastatic agents for cancer therapy. Although much evidence points toward covalent binding with ...
The pharmacokinetics of the photosensitizer used play a key role in the understanding of the mechanism of photodynamic therapy-induced damage. Fluorescence microscopy was used to compare time-dependent biodistribution of tetra(m-hydroxyphenyl)chlorin (mTHP ...
The authors have recently shown that immunophotodetection of human colon carcinomas in nude mice and in patients is possible by using anti-carcinoembryonic antigen monoclonal antibodies (MAb) coupled to fluorescein. The most common clin. application of pho ...
