In lung cancer H460 cell xenograft nude mice, combined treatment of CMR and radiation caused greatly enhanced tumor growth inhibition with upregulation of endoplasmic reticulum stress proteins and activation of pErk in xenograft tumor tissue. Our results showed that CMR increased clonogenic cell death by inducing paraptosis in NSCLC cells in response to radiotherapy, with characterized cytoplasmic vacuolation and dilated ER triggering ER stress. ./cache/cord-012785-d53k16ow.txt ./txt/cord-012785-d53k16ow.txt
