Abstract excerpt
Paclitaxel (PTX) is a potent anti-neoplastic agent that is highly effective in treating ovarian cancer. Nevertheless, the emergence of PTX resistance has limited the control of this disease. To gain insight into the molecular alterations accompanying drug resistance in ovarian cancer, we generated a new stable PTX-resistant ovarian carcinoma cell line. CABA I cells, which display an intrinsic PTX resistance (IC50...
