The anti-malarial atovaquone increases radiosensitivity by alleviating tumour hypoxia
Tumour hypoxia reduces the efficacy of radiotherapy. Starting from a drug screen, here the authors demonstrate that the anti-malarial, atovaquone, reduces the oxygen consumption rate of cancer cells by inhibition of mitochondrial complex III and sensitises to radiotherapy by reducing tumour hypoxia.
