1 | RESULTS: The radiosensitizing effect of caffeine (2 mM) expressed itself as a significant decrease in surviving fraction at 2 Gy and a significant increase in alpha-values in RT112 and TE671, both with non-functional p53. | Caffeine | tumor protein p53 | Homo sapiens |
2 | CONCLUSION: The data presented confirm that p53 status can be a significant determinant of the efficacy of caffeine as radiosensitizer in these tumour cell lines, and document the importance of the G2 checkpoint in this effect. | Caffeine | tumor protein p53 | Homo sapiens |
