Glucose transporter glut-1 expression correlates with tumor hypoxia and predicts metastasis-free survival in advanced carcinoma of the cervix

R Airley, J Loncaster, S Davidson, M Bromley… - Clinical cancer …, 2001 - AACR
Hypoxic tumors are known to be more malignant, to be more likely to metastasize, and to
have a poor prognosis. They are also radio-and chemoresistant. For this reason, it is …

Reduction of tumour oxygenation during and after photodynamic therapy in vivo: effects of fluence rate

TM Sitnik, JA Hampton, BW Henderson - British journal of cancer, 1998 - nature.com
It has been proposed that the generation of O2 during photodynamic therapy (PDT) may
