Article
Background The perioperative period often involves stress responses and surgery-induced hypothermia, which were suggested to hinder anti-metastatic immunity and promote cancer metastasis. During this critical period, immunotherapies are rarely used, given contraindications to surgery. However, recent pre-clinical studies support the feasibility of...

Tumor excision is a necessary life-saving procedure in most solid cancers. However, surgery and the days before and following it, known as the immediate perioperative period (IPP), entail numerous prometastatic processes, including the suppression of antimetastatic immunity and direct stimulation of minimal residual disease (MRD). Thus, the IPP is...
Article
Insufficient sleep is commonplace in modern lifestyle and can lead to grave outcomes, yet the changes in neuronal activity accumulating over hours of extended wakefulness remain poorly understood. Specifically, which aspects of cortical processing are affected by sleep deprivation (SD), and whether they also affect early sensory regions, remain unc...

We recently showed that a minimally-invasive removal of MDA-MB-231HM primary tumors (PTs) and elimination of their secreted factors (including IL-6, IL-8, VEGF, EGF, PDGF-aa, MIF, SerpinE1, and M-CSF), caused regression of spontaneous micro-metastases into a non-growing dormant state. To explore the underlying mechanisms and potential clinical rami...

The notion that stress and cancer are interlinked has dominated lay discourse for decades. More recent animal studies indicate that stress can substantially facilitate cancer progression through modulating most hallmarks of cancer, and molecular and systemic mechanisms mediating these effects have been elucidated. However, available clinical eviden...

Lay Description What is currently known about the subject matter Learning new vocabulary in a foreign language is a challenge to many. Embodied learning, adding meaningful sensory or motor information to learning, has been found to significantly improve memory for new vocabulary. Motor enactment (e.g., hand gestures or object manipulation) is seld...

Background Numerous case studies have reported spontaneous regression of recognized metastases following primary tumor excision, but underlying mechanisms are elusive. Here, we present a model of regression and latency of metastases following primary tumor excision and identify potential underlying mechanisms. Results Using MDA-MB-231HM human brea...

Numerous case studies have reported spontaneous regression of recognized metastases following primary tumor (PT) excision, but underlying mechanisms are elusive. Here we present a model of metastases regression and latency following PT excision, and identify potential underlying mechanisms. Using MDA-MB-231HM human breast cancer cells that express...
Preprint
A challenging part of foreign language acquisition is learning new vocabulary. Research has demonstrated the benefits of motor action to vocabulary learning, though these findings are rarely translated into teaching and learning practices. In this work we present a novel paradigm for vocabulary learning in a virtual reality environment, capitalizin...
