| Treatment of disease with radiation, especially by selective irradiation with x-rays or other ionizing radiation and by ingestion of radioisotopes. Radiosensitizer Atorvaqone, (mitochondria inhibitor) decrease O2 consumption making more O2 available as a radiosensitizer. |

| Accelerated glucose metabolism is a common feature of cancer cells. Hexokinases catalyze the first committed step of glucose metabolism. HK1 (Hexokinase 1) is a key enzyme in glycolysis, catalyzing the phosphorylation of glucose to glucose-6-phosphate. It is critical for maintaining cellular energy homeostasis and is part of the metabolic reprogramming often observed in cancer cells. • In some tumors, HK1 is upregulated to meet the high glycolytic demands of rapidly proliferating cancer cells. However, the expression pattern can be context-dependent, with some cancers potentially showing moderate or variable HK1 levels compared to the normal tissue counterpart. • Enhanced HK1 expression supports the high glycolytic flux commonly seen in cancers (the Warburg effect), facilitating anabolic processes and thereby aiding in rapid cell proliferation and biomass accumulation. • Changes in HK1 expression can also alter the balance between glycolysis and oxidative phosphorylation, potentially impacting reactive oxygen species (ROS) production and cellular redox status in tumors. |
