Combination of LDHA inhibition and IR induces both apoptosis and autophagy. a–c LDHA inhibition significantly promotes cell apoptosis after treatment with 6 Gy X-ray irradiation for 24 h. d Using MD/PI double staining, autophagy was detected in A549 cells after oxamate treatment, and interacted with apoptosis induced by irradiation. Autophagosomes appear bright green fluorescence and apoptotic nucleus appear red fluorescence. Error bars represent ± SD of N = 3 experiments, *p < 0.05, compared to the control group; #p < 0.05, compared to the irradiation group
