Radioresistance in Glioblastoma and the Development of Radiosensitizers
Ionizing radiation is a common and effective therapeutic option for the treatment of glioblastoma (GBM). Unfortunately, some GBMs are relatively radioresistant and patients have worse outcomes after radiation treatment.

ClonoScreen3D : a novel three-dimensional clonogenic screening platform for identification of radiosensitizers for glioblastoma [PDF]
Purpose Glioblastoma (GBM) is a lethal brain tumour. Standard of care treatment comprising surgery, radiation and chemotherapy results in median survival rates of 12-15 months.

Engineered bacteria serve as smart, living therapeutics that target tumors, deliver drugs, and remodel immunosuppressive microenvironments. This review highlights their potential to potentiate immunotherapy, radiotherapy, and chemotherapy, offering a promising paradigm for precise and synergistic cancer treatment. Abstract The dynamic interplay between

Development of novel radiosensitizers for cancer therapy
The novel radiosensitizers for cancer therapy, which have some atoms with large X-ray absorption cross sections, were synthesized. The chemical and radiation (X-rays, W target, 100kVp) toxicities and the radiosensitivities to LS-180 human colon ...

Nitroimidazole-based radiosensitizers: Effect of halogenation on X-ray driven fragmentation
Radiosensitizers are compounds that enhance the effectiveness of cancer radiotherapy by increasing the sensitivity of tumor cells to ionizing radiation.

The Rational Design and Biological Mechanisms of Nanoradiosensitizers
Radiotherapy (RT) has been widely used for cancer treatment. However, the intrinsic drawbacks of RT, such as radiotoxicity in normal tissues and tumor radioresistance, promoted the development of radiosensitizers.

Recent Advances in Ionizing Radiation as a Nonequilibrium Chemical Field for Catalysis
Ionizing radiation acts as a nonequilibrium chemical field that generates reactive species and structural perturbations. These radiation‐induced effects bridge catalytic material construction, including metal loading, framework evolution, defect engineering, and carbon‐network reorganization, with selective transformations such as oxidation, reduction,
