Abstract: Previous studies have shown that factors predictive of tumor recurrence include a history of the disease, multiple tumors at diagnosis, and high tumor grade and stage. Additional biological marker for predicting tumor recurrence could potentially be used in...

Effects of transition metals on the expression of the erythropoietin gene: further evidence that the oxygen sensor is a heme protein.
Abstract: Both in vivo and in Hep3B cells, expression of the erythropoietin gene is induced by hypoxia as well as by certain transition metals (cobalt and nickel) and by iron chelation. When Hep3B cells were incubated in an iron deficient medium, Epo mRNA expression...
Rapid progression of head and neck squamous carcinoma after hyperbaric oxygenation.
Abstract: We present four head and neck cancer patients who apparently had rapid progression of clinically occult disease during or soon after undergoing hyperbaric oxygenation. This led us to review existing knowledge about the interaction of HBO with tumors. The...
Hyperbaric oxygen therapy for the treatment of radiation-induced sequelae in children. The University of Pennsylvania experience.
Abstract: The role of hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) therapy in the treatment of radiation-related sequelae in adults is well known. In contrast, its role in the management of radiation-related sequelae in children has not been well studied. In an effort to define its value...

Hypoxic sensitizer and cytotoxin for head and neck cancer.
Abstract: Tumour hypoxia is well recognised as a major factor contributing to radioresistance. This article examines the role of hypoxia in influencing the treatment outcome following radiotherapy (RT), and reviews the rationale and results of clinical trials that...
Glycine activation of human homomeric alpha 1 glycine receptors is sensitive to pressure in the range of the high pressure nervous syndrome.
Abstract: The effect of hyperbaric pressure on the inhibitory glycine receptor has been investigated in voltage-clamped Xenopus oocytes microinjected with cRNA encoding the human alpha-1 glycine receptor subunit. Heterologous expression of the human alpha-1 subunit...
