Fig. 5From: Histone deacetylase inhibition sensitizes osteosarcoma to heavy ion radiotherapyTreatment with HIT and SAHA results in a reduced proliferation in osteosarcoma xenografts. Histological analysis of proliferation in tumors treated with DMSO (control), suberoylanilide hydroxamic acid (SAHA), irradiation (HIT) or HIT and SAHA. The proliferation rate was significantly reduced in tumors after treatment with SAHA and HIT at all investigation time points. HIT only treatment led to a significantly lower proliferation rate 8 and 24 days after irradiation compared to the control group. SAHA only treatment had no significant effect on tumor proliferationBack to article page
