Acquired resistance to TRAIL-induced apoptosis in human ovarian cancer cells is conferred by increased turnover of mature caspase-3
1 Mar 2006
Abstract excerpt
Little is known on how cancer cells can acquire resistance to tumor necrosis factor-related apoptosis-inducing ligand (TRAIL). In this study, we established TRAIL-resistant cells from the TRAIL-sensitive human ovarian carcinoma cell line OVCAR3 to evaluate the potential mechanisms of acquired resistance to TRAIL. The selected resistant cells were cross-resistant to Fas ligand but remained sensitive to...
