Does Trans-Stimulation of L-Tyrosine Lead to an Increase in Boron Uptake in Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma Cells?
(1) Background: For advanced head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC), boron neutron capture therapy (BNCT) is a potential therapeutic option, but high concentrations of boron within HNSCC are necessary. Therefore, this in vitro pilot study examined the uptake and concentration of boron in HNSC...
