<i>In vivo</i> evaluation of the effects of simultaneous inhibition of GLUT-1 and HIF-1α by antisense oligodeoxynucleotides on the radiosensitivity of laryngeal carcinoma using micro 18F-FDG PET/CT

Abstract

Simultaneous inhibition of HIF-1α and GLUT-1 expression might increase the radiosensitivity of laryngeal carcinoma, decreasing MVD, and promoting apoptosis and necrosis. 18F-FDG-PET/CT wasn't useful in evaluating the therapeutic effect on laryngeal cancer in this animal study.
