The relationship between cisplatin - induced apoptosis and p53 , bcl - 2 and bax expression in human lung cancer cells
31 Jan 1999
Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVES: Given the roles of bcl-2, bax and p53 in apoptosis, we investigated the effect of their expression on the response to cisplatin in order to understand the molecular events of cisplatin-resistance in lung cancers. METHODS: Three parental human lung cancer cell lines (PC9, PC14 and H69) and their in vitro selected cisplatin-resistant sublines were examined. Cells treated with cisplatin were processed...
