Killing of Brain Tumor Cells by Hypoxia-Responsive Element Mediated Expression of BAX
The presence of radioresistant hypoxic cells in human brain tumors limits the overall effectiveness of conventional fractionated radiation therapy. Tumor-specific therapies that target hypoxic cells are clearly needed. We have investigated the expression of suicide genes under hypoxia by a hypoxia-r...
