Is rAR-beta expression associated with early volumetric changes to radiation therapy in cervical cancer?
RAR-β expression might be a valuable marker for the prediction of early volumetric changes to RT in cervical carcinomas. Further search for additional genes associated with early volumetric changes and radioresistance may aid in refining individual treatment strategies.
ST2 is critical in resistance to P. aeruginosa keratitis, functioning to reduce corneal infection (bacterial load) and inflammation by negatively regulating proinflammatory cytokines and inhibiting type-1 immunity, but upregulating type-2 cytokine production, particularly IL-10.
