Abstract excerpt
Deregulation of control of the apoptotic process in Fanconi anaemia (FA) appears to be one of the main features of this disease at the cellular level. We show here that FA cells are resistant to treatments with rhodamine-1,2,3 and doxycycline, which both interfere with mitochondrial functionality by different mechanisms. In contrast, normal lymphoblastoid cells are severely affected by these treatments, which...
