Extracellular matrix stiffness mediates radiosensitivity in a 3D nasopharyngeal carcinoma model

Abstract Purpose Radiotherapy is one of the essential treatment modalities for nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC), however, radioresistance still poses challenges. Three-dimensional (3D) tumor culture models mimic the in vivo growth conditions of cells more accurately than 2D models. This study is to co...
