Proton beam therapy is a cutting edge modality over conventional gamma radiotherapy
because of its physical dose deposition advantage. However, not much is known about its …

The aim of the current study was to determine the signaling differences between γ-and
proton beam-irradiations. A549 lung adenocarcinoma cells were irradiated with 2 Gy proton …

The aim of this study was to investigate effects of irradiations with the therapeutic proton and
carbon ion beams in two non-small cell lung cancers, CRL5876 adenocarcinoma and …

The energy deposition characteristics of proton radiation have attracted considerable
attention in light of its implications for carcinogenesis risk in space travel, as well for …

Since 1957, broad proton beam radiotherapy with a spread out Bragg peak has been used
for cancer treatment. More recently, studies on the use of proton therapy in the treatment of …

A proton beam is a next generation tool to treat intractable cancer. Although the therapeutic
effects of a proton beam are well known, the effect on tumor metastasis is not fully described …

There are considerable health risks related to ionizing and proton radiation exposure. While
there is a long history of health risks associated with ionizing (photon) radiation exposure …

Proton beam is useful to target tumor tissue sparing normal cells by allowing precise dose
only into tumor cells. However, the cellular and molecular mechanisms by which proton …

The increased use of proton therapy has led to the need of better understanding the cellular
mechanisms involved. The aim of this study was to investigate the effects induced by the …

Results At the same dose (RBE), protons killed significantly more than did photons (p< 0.05),
but this effect was not seen in NHBE cells. Protons induced significant increases in …
