Abstract excerpt
Radioresistance towards radiation therapy has generated the need for the development of radiosensitizers as a potential drug. KRAS mutation brings radioresistance in tumor cells. The present work proves sensitization of cancer cells towards radiotherapy through inhibition of KRAS activation. Acquiring a drug repurposing approach, the in-silico screening revealed that pixantrone, an antineoplastic drug, possesses...
