Cellular effects of hyperthermia: relevance to the minimum dose for thermal damage

Open access
Lepock, James R.·2003·International Journal of Hyperthermia

Abstract

The specific mechanism of cell killing by hyperthermia is unknown, but the high activation energy of cell killing and other responses to hyperthermia suggest that protein denaturation is the rate-limiting step. Protein denaturation can be directly monitored by differential scanning calorimetry and in general there is a good correlation between protein denaturation and cellular response. Approximately 5% denaturation is necessary for detectable killing. Protein denaturation leads to the aggregation of both denatured and native protein with multiple effects on cellular function.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
