Statins Alleviate Tumor Hypoxia in Prostate Cancer Models by Decreasing Oxygen Consumption: An Opportunity for Radiosensitization?
Background: Because statins were found to decrease the oxygen consumption rate (OCR) of a variety of normal cells, our hypothesis was that statins may also decrease the OCR of cancer cells, alleviate tumor hypoxia and radiosensitize tumors. Methods: OCR was assessed using the Seahorse XF96 technolog...
