Metric Options: Counts1 Year3 YearSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Researcher from University of Silesia Provides Details of New Studies and Findings in the Area of Phototherapy (Iron Metabolism in Aminolevulinic Acid-Photodynamic Therapy with Iron Chelators from the Thiosemicarbazone Group)

Article Description
Iron plays a crucial role in various metabolic processes. However, the impact of 5-aminolevulinic acid (ALA) in combination with iron chelators on iron metabolism and the efficacy of ALA-photodynamic therapy (PDT) remain inadequately understood. This study aimed to examine the effect of thiosemicarbazone derivatives during ALA treatment on specific genes related to iron metabolism, with a particular emphasis on mitochondrial iron metabolism genes. In our study, we observed differences depending on the cell line studied. For the HCT116 and MCF-7 cell lines, in most cases, the decrease in the expression of selected targets correlated with the increase in protoporphyrin IX (PPIX) concentration and the observed photodynamic effect, aligning with existing literature data. The Hs683 cell line showed a different gene expression pattern, previously not described in the literature. In this study, we collected an extensive analysis of the gene variation occurring after the application of novel thiosemicarbazone derivatives and presented versatile and effective compounds with great potential for use in ALA-PDT.
