Increased expression of antioxidant enzymes in radioresistant variant from U251 human glioblastoma cell line
1 Jun 2004
Abstract excerpt
Glioblastoma is one of the most radioresistant tumors. Exposure of cells to ionizing radiation leads to formation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) that are associated with radiation-induced cytotoxicity. ROS scavengers, therefore, are one of the important factors in protecting cells against ROS injury during ionizing radiation exposure. In the present study, we isolated and established a radioresistant variant...
