However, the resistance to irradiation and metastasis at the advanced stage is a common reason for the poor prognosis and high mortality. This study was designed to elucidate the role of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) nuclear translocation in radioresistance, and its correlation with DNA damage repair pathway in the cervical cancer cells. Methods: The dynamic expression of EGFR, DNA-dependent protein kinase (DNA-PK), … Show more
