When M10 cells derived from mouse lymph nodes were irradiated with the UVB lamp at a peak emission of 312 nm, the cell growth was suppressed in proportion to irradiation time (10-30 s) and cell apoptosis was also induced by the irradiation. Dynamic changes in 597 genes after exposing these cells to UVB irradiation were investigated by DNA array analysis using array membranes and a (33)P-labeling probe. After 2 h of irradiation, the gene expression in the cells was examined and compared with that in untreated cells. Radioactivity was analyzed using Array Gauge software. The data were further processed using software, EX-ARRAY, which was developed for extracting significant data from the results of 2 background-subtraction methods, i.e., global and local background subtraction. The number of genes suppressed under UV irradiation increased with irradiation time, while that of activated genes decreased. Finally, we confirmed 4 genes (HMG-14, CDX-2, MCP-3, and GRP-78) to be up-regulated and confirmed their activation by northern blot. We propose these genes as the new biomarkers of lymphocyte sensitive to UVB irradiation.

Radiotherapy can be limited by pneumonitis which is impacted by innate immunity, including pathways regulated by TRAIL death receptor DR5. We investigated whether DR5 agonists could rescue mice from toxic effects of radiation and found two different agonists, parenteral PEGylated trimeric-TRAIL (TLY012) and oral TRAIL-Inducing Compound (TIC10/ONC201) could reduce pneumonitis, alveolar-wall thickness, and oxygen desaturation. Lung protection extended to late effects of radiation including less fibrosis at 22-weeks in TLY012-rescued survivors versus un-rescued surviving irradiated-mice.

Ferroptosis is a unique cell death mode that relies on iron and lipid peroxidation (LPO) and is extensively utilized to treat drug-resistant tumor. However, like the other antitumor model, requirement of oxygen limited its application in treating the malignant tumors in anaerobic environments, just as photodynamic therapy, a very promising anticancer therapy. Here, we show that an iridium(III) complex (Ir-dF), which was often used in proton-coupled electron transport (PCET) process, can induce efficient cell death upon photo irradiation, which can be effectively protected by the typical ferroptosis inhibitor Fer-1 but not by the classic iron chelating agents and ROS scavengers.

Background: Post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH) is a common cosmetic concern, often leading to significant psychological distress for the patients. With the widespread application of lasers including ablative fractional resurfacing (AFR) with a 10,600 nm CO laser, PIH caused by lasers is becoming increasingly common. But due to the absence of an appropriate animal research model, our understanding of pathophysiological mechanisms and preventive strategies for PIH remains limited.

Background: Orbital lymphomas are the most frequently occurring malignant tumor entities in this region. They are less frequently also localized in the ocular adnexa and show a high entity-specific heterogeneity regarding the treatment and prognosis.
Objective: This article gives an overview of the heterogeneity of symptoms of orbital lymphoma and lymphoma of the ocular adnexa and focuses on new systemic options for treatment of this disease.
