Abstract excerpt
The appearance of multidrug-resistant (MDR) proteins or the acquisition of a defective apoptotic programme are major drawbacks in the treatment of cancers since both induce a resistance to classical chemotherapy. However, a link between the two mechanisms has not, as yet, been clearly established. In this study, HL-60 cells cultured in the continual presence of a sub-lethal dose of doxorubicin (dox; HL-60/Dox)...
