Abstract excerpt
A major impediment to successful chemotherapy is the propensity for some tumor cells to undergo cell cycle arrest rather than apoptosis. It is well established, however, that the adenovirus E1A protein can sensitize these cells to the induction of apoptosis by anticancer agents. To further understand how E1A enhances chemosensitivity, we have made use of a human colon carcinoma cell line (HCT116) which typically...
