Multimodality Advanced Cardiovascular and Molecular Imaging for Early Detection and Monitoring of Cancer Therapy-Associated Cardiotoxicity and the Role of Artificial Intelligence and Big Data

Cancer mortality has improved due to earlier detection via screening, as well as due to novel cancer therapies such as tyrosine kinase inhibitors and immune checkpoint inhibitions.However, similarly to older cancer therapies such as anthracyclines, these therapies have also been documented to cause cardiotoxic events including cardiomyopathy, myoca

Gut microbiota dynamics and functionality in Reticulitermes grassei after a 7-day dietary shift and ciprofloxacin treatment.

Gut microbial structure in animals depends on the host, dietary habits and local environment.A random event, dietary change or antibiotic treatment may alter the gut environment with possible repercussions for the bacterial community composition and functionality and ultimately host fitness.The present study was focused on the composition, structur

Colony-stimulating factor 3 signaling in colon and rectal cancers: Immune response and CMS classification in TCGA data.

Colorectal cancer is the 2nd leading cause of cancer-related deaths in the world.The mechanisms underlying CRC development, progression, and resistance to treatment are complex and not fully understood.The immune response in the tumor microenvironment has been shown to play a significant role in many cancers, including colorectal cancer.Colony-stim
