siRNA Targeting NBS1 or XIAP Increases Radiation Sensitivity of Human Cancer Cells Independent of TP53 Status
1 Sept 2006
Abstract excerpt
NBS1 is essential for the repair of radiation-induced DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) in yeast and higher vertebrate cells. In this study, we examined whether suppressed NBS1 expression by small interference RNA (siRNA) could enhance radiation sensitivity in cancer cells with different TP53 status. We used human non-small cell lung cancer cells differing in TP53 gene status (H1299/wtp53 cells bearing wild-type...
