During radiotherapy the peritumoral tissues are daily exposed to subtherapeutic doses of ionizing radiation. Herein, the biological and molecular effects of doses lower than 0.8 Gy per fraction (LDIR), previously described as angiogenesis inducers, were assessed in human peritumoral tissues.Paired biopsies of preperitoneal adipose tissue were surgically collected from 16 patients diagnosed with locally advanced rectal cancer who underwent neo-adjuvant radiotherapy. One of the biopsies is located ...

Low doses of ionizing radiation (LDIR) activate endothelial cells inducing angiogenesis. In zebrafish, LDIR induce vessel formation in the sub-intestinal vessels during post-embryonic development and enhance the inter-ray vessel density in adult fin regeneration. Since angiogenesis is a crucial process involved in both post-embryonic development and regeneration, herein we aimed to understand whether LDIR accelerate these physiological conditions. Our data show that LDIR upregulate the gene expression ...

At low doses, ionizing radiation activates endothelial cells and promotes angiogenesis. However, it is still unknown if other cells may contribute to this process. In this study, the effect of low-dose ionizing radiation (LDIR) in modulating the pro-angiogenic potential of adipocytes was investigated. Adipocytes are known to secrete multiple angiogenic factors and adipokines that induce angiogenesis. In this work, a confluent monolayer of 3T3-L1 pre-adipocytes was exposed to low doses (0.1 and 0.3 ...

The contribution of radiotherapy, per se, to late cardiotoxicity remains controversial. To clarify its impact on the development of early cardiac dysfunction, we developed an experimental model in which the hearts of rats were exposed, in a fractionated plan, to clinically relevant doses of ionizing radiation for oncological patients that undergo thoracic radiotherapy. Rat hearts were exposed to daily doses of 0.04, 0.3, and 1.2 Gy for 23 days, achieving cumulative doses of 0.92, 6.9, and 27.6 Gy, ...

Rationale: Poor nutritional status in cancer is mainly manifested by severe muscle depletion, that may happen at any treatment' stage(curative,adjuvant,palliative), independently of weight. Sarcopenia/myopenia detrimentally impact clinical outcomes; studies suggest a role of phase angle for undernutrition diagnosis.

We describe the investigation and control of an outbreak of Legionnaires' disease in Portugal in October, November and December 2014. Confirmed cases were individuals with pneumonia, laboratory evidence of Legionella pneumophila serogroup 1 and exposure, by residence, occupational or leisure to the affected municipalities. 49 possible sources were reduced to four potential sources, all industries with wet cooling system, following risk assessment. We geo-referenced cases' residences and the location ...
