Objectives: The ultimate goal of stem cell (SC) transplantation is the regeneration of salivary gland function by transplanted SCs differentiating into salivary gland cells. Therefore, this study aimed to evaluate the regenerative capacity of bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (BM-MSCs) transplantation in irradiated mice using the immunohistochemical markers Ki-67 and CD34.
Material And Methods: Four groups of male mice were included in the study. Group I (normal control) comprised six mice that were not subjected to gamma radiation. Group II comprised six irradiated mice that were not treated with BM-MSCs. Group III comprised 12 irradiated mice that were treated with intraglandular injection of labeled BM-MSCs into their submandibular salivary glands, 24 hours postradiation. Group IV comprised 12 irradiated mice that were treated with intraglandular injection of labeled BM-MSCs into their submandibular salivary glands, on day 11 postradiation.
Statistical Analysis: Data were presented as mean and standard deviation. The different groups were compared using a one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA).
Results: The ANOVA test revealed that the difference between all groups was extremely statistically significant ( < 0.003), and Tukey's post hoc test revealed a statistically significant difference between group II and groups I, III, and IV included in the study regarding microvessel density of CD34 immunoexpression in different groups.
Conclusion: BM-MSCs have a regeneration potential on induced damaged submandibular salivary glands in mice; time is an essential factor in the regeneration capacity of BM-MSCs.

Lung cancer exhibits altered metabolism, influencing its response to radiation. To investigate the metabolic regulation of radiation response, we conducted a comprehensive, metabolic-wide CRISPR-Cas9 loss-of-function screen using radiation as selection pressure in human non-small cell lung cancer. Lipoylation emerged as a key metabolic target for radiosensitization, with lipoyltransferase 1 (LIPT1) identified as a top hit.

Radioresistance remains a major obstacle in cervical cancer treatment, frequently engendering tumor relapse and metastasis. However, the details of its mechanism of action remain largely enigmatic. This study delineates the prospective impacts of short-form human T-cell lymphoma invasion and metastasis 2 (TIAM2S) involving the radiation resistance of cervical cancer.

Near-infrared II (NIR-II) photoacoustic (PA)/photothermal imaging-guided tumor therapy holds great promise in precision medicine for cancer treatment. This work reports on the synthesis and application of an organic small molecule nanoagent that has exceptional PA and photothermal properties in the near-infrared region. BCy-TPE was constructed by linking an NIR-II absorbing cyanine dye BCy-Cl with a twisted tetraphenylethene unit.
