Abstract excerpt
Cancer cell lines transfected with thioredoxin show increased anchorage-independent growth and decreased sensitivity to induction of apoptosis by a number of anticancer drugs. The present studies were undertaken to evaluate further the role of thioredoxin in cell growth and drug-induced apoptosis. A redox-inactive mutant thioredoxin was stably transfected into WEHI7.2 mouse lymphocytic leukemia cells and two...
