Abstract excerpt
Mad2beta is an alternative splicing variant of spindle checkpoint gene mad2, which was previously found by us and was related to the drug resistance in gastric cancer cells. In this paper, we explored the molecular mechanisms that Mad2beta variant promoted the formation of multidrug resistance in gastric cancer cells. We found that Mad2beta variant was detected only in the two human drug resistant gastric cancer...
