5-HT2A and 5-HT3 receptors contribute to the exacerbation of targeted and non-targeted effects of ionizing radiation-induced cell death in human colon carcinoma cells.

Conclusions: Our findings demonstrate a definitive role for 5-HT in the exacerbation of cell death following ionizing radiation exposure in colon carcinoma cells and highlight 5-HTRs as potential markers for predicting cellular radiosensitivity. PMID: 31846381 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
