                    Biological
                    Regulation
Reduction Number of Treg cells and myeloid suppressor cells
                    In-vivo Model Lewis lung cancer cells (1 * 106) was inoculated into the right hind leg of C57BL/6 mice.
                    Experimental
                    Result(s)
Combining radiotherapy and cantharidin may have synergistic effects in driving tumor rejection by increasing T-cell infiltration, proliferation and cytokine production.

MDA-MB-231 CVCL_0062 Breast adenocarcinoma Homo sapiens
MCF-7 CVCL_0031 Invasive breast carcinoma Homo sapiens
                    Experimental
                    Result(s)
Cucurbitacin B causes increased radiation sensitivity of human breast cancer cells via G2/M cell cycle arrest.

                    Molecule(s)
                    Regulation
Up-regulation Expression PARP1  Molecule Info 
Pathway MAP
                    Biological
                    Regulation
Induction AIF nuclear translocation
Induction Bax mitochondrial relocalization
Induction ROS accumulation
                    In-vitro Model Jurkat CVCL_0065 T acute lymphoblastic leukemia Homo sapiens
                    Experimental
                    Result(s)
Enhancement of cell death of radiation-resistant cancer cells by phytosphingosine treatment in combination with gamma-radiation is mediated by nuclear translocation of AIF, which is in turn mediated both by ROS-dependent Bax relocalization and ROS-independent PARP-1 activation.

Pathway MAP
                    In-vivo Model Male C57BL/6 mice(18-22g) were exposed to 60Co Gamma-irradiation at a dose of 7.5 Gy or 3 Gy and the dose rate was 1.58 Gy/min
                    Experimental
                    Result(s)
AMF is a potential protective agent against radiation injury.
