Sensitization of rat C6 glioma cells to ionizing radiation by porphyrins

open access: yesActa Medica Lituanica, 2011
Background. Radiosensitizers are used in order to increase the efficacy of radiotherapy. Most of the presently known radiosensitizing agents have a poor selectivity and are not tumour-specific. Porphyrins have a selective uptake in tumour relative to the
