Does [ Small interfering RNA in silencing cox-2 expression enhance radiosensitivity of esophageal cancer EC9706 cell ]?
Small interference RNA in silencing cox-2 gene expression can enhance significantly the radiosensitivity of esophageal cancer EC9706 cells. And the mechanism may be related with MMP2, Bax, Bcl-2, AKT protein and pAKT protein.
Neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy or chemotherapy followed by surgery (particularly lobectomy) is superior to following these therapies with definitive chemoradiation or radiotherapy, particularly in patients undergoing lobectomy.
