Abstract excerpt
Since HeLa cells possess very little functional p53 activity, they could be originally resistant to genotoxic stress-induced apoptosis. Therefore, it is likely that the drug-resistant cells derived from HeLa cells are more resistant to apoptosis. The aim of this study was to determine whether cisplatin-resistant cells derived from HeLa cells have an apoptosis-resistant phenotype. A cisplatin-resistant cell...
