Abstract excerpt
The adenovirus E1A gene is a potent inducer of chemosensitivity and radiosensitivity through p53-dependent and independent mechanisms. We have studied the sensitivity of murine (MSC11A5, a sarcomatoid epidermoid carcinoma) and human (HeLa, human cervix carcinoma) E1A-expressing tumors, in vivo, after treatment with cisplatin or gamma-irradiation. In athymic mice, half-body irradiation was performed in an AECL...
