Severe hypoxia induces chemo-resistance in clinical cervical tumors through MVP over-expression

<p>Abstract</p> <p>Oxygen molecule modulates tumour response to radiotherapy. Higher radiation doses are required under hypoxic conditions to induce cell death. Hypoxia may inhibit the non-homologous end-joining DNA repair through down regulating Ku70/80 expression. Hypoxia induces...
