Inhibition of autophagy sensitizes cancer cells to Photofrin-based photodynamic therapy
Abstract Background Accumulating evidence suggest that autophagy plays a pivotal role in various anticancer therapies, including photodynamic therapy (PDT), acting as a pro-death or pro-survival mechanism in a context-dependent manner. Therefore, we aimed to determine the role of autophagy in Photof...
