Ionizing Radiation and the Immune Response - Part A

Ionizing Radiation and the Immune Response, Volume 376, Part A reviews the latest updates on the immune response induced by ionizing radiations. Sections discuss the role of specific immune cells (macrophage, lymphocyte, NK cells.) and describe the effect of modern radiotherapy techniques (TRT, minibeams, flash-RT, proton therapy, heavy ions.) on immune response. Sample chapters cover NK functions in radio-induced immune response, TRT and immune response, Radio-induced immune response and lipid metabolism, Effect of protons and heavy ions on immune response, Effect of flashtherapy and mini beam on immune response, Radio-induced lymphopenia, CT to potentiate radio-induced immune response, and much. Other sections focus on the Effect of low dose radiation on radio-induced immune response, Role of Dendritic cells in radiation-induced immune response, Relationship between the tumor microenvironment and the efficacy of the radiotherapy/immunotherapy combination+A23, Biomarkers of radiation induced response to optimize radio-immunotherapy combination. Covers the latest insights on the biological and physical parameters that modulate radio-induced immune response Provides an accurate review by selected experts of the impact on the immune response of new techniques delivering ionizing radiations Presents valuable information to clinicians to optimize radiotherapy and immunotherapy combinations INDICE: 1.
