Abstract excerpt
TP53-induced glycolysis and apoptosis regulator (TIGAR) knockdown is proven to radiosensitize glioma cells, but the mechanisms are not fully understood. Thioredoxin-1 (TRX1) is a redox-sensitive oxidoreductase, which plays critical roles in DNA damage signal transduction via nuclear translocation in irradiated cells. Because the TRX1-dependent DNA damage signaling pathway relies on NADPH to maintain the reduced...
