Microtubule-targeting agents can sensitize cancer cells to ionizing radiation by an interphase-based mechanism

BACKGROUND: The cytotoxic effects of microtubule-targeting agents (MTAs) are often attributed to targeted effects on mitotic cells. In clinical practice, MTAs are combined with DNA-damaging agents such as ionizing radiation (IR) with the rationale that mitotic cells are highly sensitive to DNA damag...
