Targeting Mcl-1 for Radiosensitization of Pancreatic Cancers
In order to identify targets whose inhibition may enhance the efficacy of chemoradiation in pancreatic cancer, we previously conducted an RNAi library screen of 8,800 genes.

Progression in low‐intensity ultrasound‐induced tumor radiosensitization
Background Radiotherapy (RT) is a widely utilized tumor treatment approach, while a significant obstacle in this treatment modality is the radioresistance exhibited by tumor cells.

Vemurafenib and Radiosensitization [PDF]
The BRAF inhibitor, vemurafenib, was recently approved for the treatment of patients with BRAFV600 metastatic melanoma. Wider use of this drug and longer follow-up periods of treatment are resulting in the emergence of a growing number of reports detailing new adverse effects.

Surface-ligand effect on radiosensitization of ultrasmall luminescent gold nanoparticles [PDF]
Gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) could serve as potential radiotherapy sensitizers because of their exceptional biocompatibility and high-Z material nature; however, since in vitro and in vivo behaviors of AuNPs are determined not only by their particle size ...

The Effects of p53 and p53R2 Expression on Gemcitabine-Mediated Cytotoxicity and Radiosensitization. [PDF]
Gemcitabine (dFdCyd) is a nucleoside analog that produces synergistic killing of tumor cells with ionizing radiation (radiosensitization). Previously, radiosensitization correlated with dATP depletion, mediated by dFdCyd diphosphate inhibition of ...

Radiosensitization and apoptosis [PDF]
The toxicity of radiation to living tissues was discovered soon after the discovery of radioactivity itself and this toxicity is the basis for cancer therapy with radiation. Although this mode of therapy is often effective, its success is far from assured.

Radiosensitizing Nucleosides [PDF]
Chemotherapeutic drugs that perturb nucleotide metabolism have the potential to produce substantial sensitization of tumor cells to radiation treatment. The process is called radiosensitization, and the agents that induce it are called radiosensitizers.
