Role of Acid Sphingomyelinase and Ceramide in Mechano-Acoustic Enhancement of Tumor Radiation Responses

BACKGROUND: High-dose radiotherapy (>8–10 Gy) causes rapid endothelial cell death via acid sphingomyelinase (ASMase)–induced ceramide production, resulting in biologically significant enhancement of tumor responses. To further augment or solicit similar effects at low radiation doses, we used gen...
