Cervical cancer remains one of the greatest killers of women worldwide. It is difficult to
foresee a dramatic increase in cure rate even with the most optimal combination of cytotoxic …

Pregnancy represents an exceptional opportunity for the early diagnosis of cervical cancer
since visual inspection, cytological examination and bimanual palpation are considered to …

Nanoparticles larger than the reported mesh-pore size range (10–200 nm) in mucus have
been thought to be much too large to undergo rapid diffusional transport through mucus …

PURPOSE: Cancer patients who undergo radiotherapy remain at life-long risk of radiation-
induced injury to normal tissues. We conducted a randomized, controlled, double-blind …

The low level of oxygenation within tumors is a major cause of radiation treatment failures.
We theorized that anaerobic bacteria that can selectively destroy the hypoxic regions of …

The molecular mechanisms underlying the anti-neoplastic properties of metformin, a first-
line drug for type 2 diabetes, remain elusive. To explore the novel anti-neoplastic …

OBJECTIVES.: To evaluate the morbidity and therapeutic value of surgery after concurrent
chemoradiotherapy and brachytherapy in a multicentric series of patients with advanced …

Cervical cancer is a public health issue in developing countries. Although the Pap smear
and colposcopy remain the major strategies for detection, most cases are diagnosed in the …

The linear-quadratic model (LQ model) provides a biologically plausible and experimentally
established method to quantitatively describe the dose-response to irradiation in terms of …

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are a class of small noncoding RNAs that play important roles in
tumorigenesis and tumor progression through regulation of gene expression. Earlier, miR …
