Abstract:
:Hypoxic EMT-6 tumour cells displayed a high level of inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) and an increased radiosensitivity after a 16 h exposure to lipopolysaccharide, a known activator of nuclear factor-kappaB (NF-kappaB). Both iNOS activation and radioresponse were impaired by the NF-kappaB inhibitors phenylarsine oxide and lactacystin. Contrasting to other studies, our data show that inhibition of NF-kappaB may impair the radioresponse of tumour cells through downregulation of iNOS.
