Non-thermal atmospheric pressure plasma is now being widely developed for various clinical applications such as skin sterilization, blood coagulation, cancer treatment, angiogenesis and wound healing among others. However, understanding of mechanism of interaction between non-thermal plasma and mammalian cells is lacking. Here we investigated the possibility that the dose of non-thermal plasma can...
Non-thermal atmospheric pressure dielectric barrier discharge plasma applied directly to living tissues is now being widely considered for various clinical applications. One of the key questions that arise in this type of topical treatment is if the skin remains undamaged after non-thermal plasma treatment. The results from the previous rodent model provided strong evidence for the ability of non-thermal...
Induction of apoptosis, or programmed cell death, is an important factor in cancer therapy as cancer cells frequently have acquired the ability to avoid apoptosis and continue to multiply in an unregulated manner; thereby becoming resistant to traditional chemotherapeutic drugs. Nonthermal atmospheric plasma discharge may provide a novel approach to induction of apoptosis in cancer cells. The purpose...
Non-thermal dielectric barrier discharge plasma produced at normal atmospheric pressure and applied directly to living tissues is now being widely considered for various applications in medicine, viz; skin sterilization, wound treatment, treatment in malignant tissues and many others. One of the key questions that arise in this type of topical treatment is whether the skin remains undamaged after...
Summary form only given. Initiation of programmed cell death, or apoptosis, is an important issue in cancer treatment as cancer cells frequently have acquired the ability to block apoptosis and thus are more resistant to chemotherapeutic drugs. Targeted and perhaps selective initiation of apoptosis in cancerous tissue is desirable for many reasons, ranging from the enhancement of or aid to current...
