Authors: Zhang J, Tao X, Sun M, Ying R, Su W, Wei W, Meng X Abstract Radiation vasculitis is one of the most common detrimental effects of radiotherapy for malignant tumors. This is developed at the vasculature of adjacent organs. Animal experiments have showed that transplantation of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) restores vascular function after irradiation. But the population of MSCs being engrafted into irradiated vessels is too low in the conventional models to make assessment of therapeutic...

CONCLUSION: Proliferation remains one of the most important parameters for tumor characterization helpful in making clinical decisions, but it should be used with great caution. Standardization of the Ki-67 assessment is essential and proliferating index should be expressed as exact numeric value. For patients with proliferative index near the cut-off value, other factors must be considered in making clinical decisions.
