<i>AKT1</i> Amplification Regulates Cisplatin Resistance in Human Lung Cancer Cells through the Mammalian Target of Rapamycin/p70S6K1 Pathway
1 Jul 2007
Abstract excerpt
Cisplatin [cis-diaminodichloroplatinum (II) (CDDP)] is one of the most widely used and effective therapeutic agents for many kinds of cancers. However, its efficiency is limited due to development of drug resistance. In this study, we showed that CDDP resistance was associated with AKT1 overexpression and gene amplification in human lung cancer cells that acquired the drug resistance. We showed that AKT1 forced...
