Changes in skeletal muscle mass (SMM), total adipose tissue mass (TAT) or bone mineral density (BMD) have been described in patients with cancer undergoing various treatments; simultaneous variations of all 3 tissues has not been reported.

Small Conductance Calcium (Ca2+)-activated potassium (K+) channels (SKCa) are now proved to be involved in many cancer cell behaviors such as proliferation or migration. The SK3 channel isoform was particularly described in breast cancer where it can be associated with the Orai1 Ca2+ channel to form a complex…

Declaration of Competing Interest All authors have no conflicts of interest to disclose.

Declaration of competing interest Dr. Le Gal reports grants from Portola Pharmaceuticals; was a co-investigator for trials conducted by Boehringer Ingelheim, Pfizer, GlaxoSmithKline, Bristol-Myers Squibb, Leo Pharma, Daiichi Sankyo, and Bayer; and received honoraria from Bayer, Pfizer, GlaxoSmithKline, LEO Pharma Research Foundation, Sanofi, and bioMerieux, outside the submitted work.

Adjuvant radiotherapy after prostatectomy was recently challenged by early salvage radiotherapy, which highlighted the need for biomarkers to improve risk stratification. Therefore, we developed an MRI ADC map-derived radiomics model to predict biochemical recurrence (BCR) and BCR-free survival (bRFS) after surgery. Our goal in this work was to externally validate this radiomics-based prediction model.

During radiotherapy (RT) for prostate cancer (PCa), interfraction and intrafraction movements can lead to decreased target dose coverage and unnecessary over-exposure of organs at risk.

Prostate cancer (PCa) pelvic radiotherapy fields are defined by guidelines that do not consider individual variations in lymphatic drainage.

To perform bladder dose-surface map (DSM) analysis for (1) identifying symptom-related sub-surfaces (Ssurf) and evaluating their prediction capability of urinary toxicity, (2) comparing DSM with dose-volume map (DVM) (method effect), and (3) assessing the reproducibility of DSM (cohort effect).

Ceramide-induced endothelial cell apoptosis boosts intestinal stem cell radiosensitivity. However, the molecular connection between these two cellular compartments has not been clearly elucidated.

The halogen bond is a powerful tool for the molecular design and pushing the limits of its strength is of major interest. Bearing the most potent halogen-bond donor atom, astatine monoiodide (AtI) was recently successfully probed [Nat. Chem. 2018, 10, 428-434].
