Purpose: The understanding of how varying radiation beam parameter settings affect the induction and magnitude of the FLASH effect remains limited. We sought to systematically evaluate how the magnitude of radiation-induced gastrointestinal toxicity depends on the interplay between mean dose rate (MDR) and dose per pulse (DPP).
Methods And Materials: C57BL/6J mice received total abdominal irradiation (TAI, 11-14 Gy single fraction) through either conventional (CONV) irradiation (low-DPP and low MDR, CONV) or through various combinations of DPP and MDR up to ultra-high-dose-rate beam conditions.

Recent data have redefined the genetic spectrum of pigmented epithelioid melanocytomas (PEMs). PEM is now defined by a secondary genetic event, a protein kinase cAMP-dependent type I regulatory subunit alpha (PRKAR1A) inactivation, that confers the specific cytomorphology of the entity, but this event can arise within a naevus with a genetic background of common, blue or Spitz type. PKC-fused melanocytic proliferations, although they can exhibit PEM-like morphological features, have now been regrouped within the blue group of tumours.

Cancer immunotherapy has emerged as a transformative approach in oncology, utilizing the body's immune system to specifically target and destroy malignant cells. This review explores the scope and impact of various immunotherapeutic strategies, including monoclonal antibodies, chimeric antigen receptor (CAR)-T cell therapy, checkpoint inhibitors, cytokine therapy, and therapeutic vaccines. Monoclonal antibodies, such as Rituximab and Trastuzumab, have revolutionized treatment paradigms for lymphoma and breast cancer by offering targeted interventions that reduce off-target effects.

Introduction: The role of zinc (Zn) in tumor development and immune modulation has always been paradoxical. This study redefines our understanding of the impact of Zn on cancer progression and therapeutic strategies.
Methods: We investigated the effects of dietary Zn levels on tumor progression and immune responses.
