Fig. 10From: Ultrasound-triggered microbubble destruction enhances the radiosensitivity of glioblastoma by inhibiting PGRMC1-mediated autophagy in vitro and in vivoUTMD enhanced the radiosensitivity of glioblastoma by inhibiting PGRMC1-mediated autophagy. UTMD improved the response of glioblastoma cells to IR via the proposed signaling pathways: UTMD downregulates PGRMC1 expression, thereby inhibiting the combination of PGRMC1 with LC3B2, which is followed by a decrease of autophagosome-lysosome fusion, subsequently disrupting autophagic degradation and ultimately enhancing the radiosensitivity of glioblastoma.
