Review on ventilation rates in the ventilated air-spaces behind common wall assemblies with external cladding

For many decades, ventilated cavities in wall assemblies of buildings have been essential for creating moisture resilient constructions by allowing airflow within the air gap to promote drying. In addition to that, the airflow in the cavity can enhance the ...

Low-dose photodynamic therapy promotes a cytotoxic immunological response in a murine model of pleural mesothelioma

Paul Joseph Dyson, Etienne Meylan, Julien Robert Rémi Faget, Aspasia Gkasti, Yameng Hao, Maxime Reichenbach

OBJECTIVES: Malignant pleural mesothelioma (MPM) is a deadly disease with limited treatment options. Approaches to enhance patient immunity against MPM have been tested but shown variable results. Previously, we have demonstrated interesting vascular modul ...

Tumor-associated factors are enriched in lymphatic exudate compared to plasma in metastatic melanoma patients

Davide Demurtas, Romain Hamelin, Melody Swartz, Lambert Charles François Potin, Patricia Corthésy Henrioud, Natacha Anne-Sophie Bordry, Maria Anna Sofia Broggi, Léa Maillat, Alexandre Harari

Liquid biopsies allow monitoring of cancer progression and detection of relapse, but reliable biomarkers in melanoma are lacking. Because secreted factors preferentially drain to lymphatic vessels before dilution in the blood, we hypothesized that lymph sh ...

Interstitial fluid pressure: A novel biomarker to monitor photo-induced drug uptake in tumor and normal tissues.

Georges Wagnières, Michaël Bensimon, Matthieu Philippe Emmanuel Zellweger, Xi Wang, Jean Yannis Perentes

Low-dose photodynamic therapy PDT (photoinduction) can modulate tumor vessels and enhance the uptake of liposomal cisplatin (Lipoplatin®) in pleural malignancies. However, the photo-induction conditions must be tightly controlled as overtreatment shuts dow ...

Treatment of pleural malignancies by photo-induction combined to systemic chemotherapy: Proof of concept on rodent lung tumors and feasibility study on porcine chest cavities

Georges Wagnières, Michaël Bensimon, Elodie Debefve, Laurent Décosterd, Jean Yannis Perentes

Background: Low-dose, Visudyne (R)-mediated photodynamic therapy (photo-induction) was shown to selectively enhance tumor vessel transport causing increased uptake of systemically administered chemotherapy in various tumor types grown on rodent lungs. The ...

Clinical photodynamic therapy for superficial cancer in the esophagus and the bronchi: 514 nm compared with 630 nm light irradiation after sensitization with Photofrin II

Hubert van den Bergh, Georges Wagnières

Photodynamic therapy (PDT) for cancer in the esophagus and bronchi with red (630 nm) light may occasionally lead to wall perforation and fistula. Therefore, the clin. use of a less penetrating wavelength (514 nm) was investigated for the curative treatment ...
