Abstract excerpt
Resistance to anticancer drugs such as the widely used antimetabolite 5-fluorouracil (FU) is one of the most important obstacles to cancer chemotherapy. Using GeneChip arrays, we compared the expression profile of different stages of FU resistance in colon cancer cells after in vitro selection of low-, intermediate- and high-resistance phenotypes. Drug resistance was associated with significant changes in...
