Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) Research for Germ Cell Cancer.
Abstract: Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is the most common type of malignant intracranial tumor in adults. Tumor tissue hypoxia, high mitotic rate, and rapid tumor spread account for its poor prognosis. Hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) may improve the sensitivity of...
Abstract: Temozolomide (TMZ) is part of the standard of care for treating glioblastoma multiforme (GBM), an aggressive primary brain tumor. New approaches are needed to enhance therapeutic efficacy and reduce toxicity. GBM tumor cells are dependent on glucose and...
Abstract: Cancer is a common disease and radiotherapy is one well-established treatment for some solid tumours. Hyperbaric oxygenation therapy (HBOT) may improve the ability of radiotherapy to kill hypoxic cancer cells, so the administration of radiotherapy while...
Abstract: Few advances have been made in overall survival for glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) in more than 40?years. Here, we report the case of a 38-year-old man who presented with chronic headache, nausea, and vomiting accompanied by left partial motor seizures and...
Abstract: Hypoxia is a fundamental hallmark of solid tumors and helps contribute to chemotherapy resistance. Hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) therapy can overcome tumor hypoxia and promote chemotherapy antitumor efficacy; however, the simultaneous administration of some...
Abstract: The present study aimed to investigate the therapeutic effect of combined hyperbaric oxygen and radiation therapy for the treatment of single brain metastasis (SBM), as well as its influence on osteopontin (OPN) and matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9). A...
Abstract: Neural crest stem cells (NCSCs) are a population of multipotent stem cells that are distributed broadly in many tissues and organs and are capable of differentiating into a variety of cell types that are dispersed throughout three germ layers. We are...
Abstract: Professional deep-water divers exposed to hyperbaric pressure (HP) above 1.1 MPa develop high-pressure neurological syndrome, which is associated with central nervous system hyperexcitability. It was previously reported that HP augments N-methyl-D-aspartate...
Abstract: To evaluate the therapeutic utility of hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) therapy on testicular ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury and elucidate the underlying molecular mechanism, we tested whether HBO therapy provided rescue of the testes after torsion in rats....
