Inhibition of LOXL2 Enhances the Radiosensitivity of Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer Cells Associated with the Reversal of the EMT Process

Figure 2

Knockdown of LOXL2 radiosensitizes DU145 and PC3 cells. (a-b) LOXL2 was significantly silenced in DU145 and PC3 cells by si-LOXL2 transfection at both mRNA and protein levels. (c) The radiosensitization effect of LOXL2 knockdown in DU145 and PC3 cells was determined by the clonogenic assay after 4 Gy of irradiation. (d-e) Dose-survival curve derived from the results of clonogenic assay for DU145 cells; the radiobiological parameters D0, Dq, and N are also listed. denotes p <0.05 by Student's t-test.
