Modulating the Bcl-2 Family of Apoptosis Suppressors for Potential Therapeutic Benefit in Cancer
1 Jan 2005
Abstract excerpt
Members of the BCL-2 family of proteins regulate and execute many cell intrinsic apoptosis pathways, including those arising from dysregulated expression of cellular oncogenes. Since pro-survival members of the family are often strongly elevated in diverse cancers, with the potential to confer resistance to both endogenous cell death stimuli and many cancer treatments, there has been intense interest to develop...
