Hyperthermia-induced Nuclear Translocation of Transcription Factor YB-1 Leads to Enhanced Expression of Multidrug Resistance-related ABC Transporters
1 Jul 2001
Abstract excerpt
Genotoxic stress leads to nuclear translocation of the Y-box transcription factor YB-1 and enhanced expression of the multidrug resistance gene MDR1. Because hyperthermia is used for the treatment of colon cancer in combination with chemoradiotherapy, we investigated the influence of hyperthermia on YB-1 activity and the expression of multidrug resistance-related genes. Here we report that hyperthermia causes...
