USMBs enhance the suppressive effect of radiation on angiogenesis of ESCC cells
(A-B) The tube formation assay of HUVEC cells was used to assess the angiogenesis of KYSE-410 and KYSE-1140 cells treated with 8 Gy radiation or 8 Gy radiation with USMBs (high or low levels) (Pneg = 1.3 MPa). (C-D) The angiogenesis-related protein levels (ANG 1, VEGFA and EGFR) in KYSE-410 and KYSE-1140 cells treated with 8 Gy radiation alone or 8 Gy radiation with US or USMBs (high or low levels) (Pneg = 1.3 MPa) were examined using western blot analysis. *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01.
