Cell Cycle Regulatory Protein 5 (Cdk5) is a Novel Downstream Target of ERK in Carboplatin Induced Death of Breast Cancer Cells (Supplementary Data)
1 Dec 2008
Abstract excerpt
Neuronal cell specific cyclin-dependent kinase 5 (Cdk5) is a known regulator of neurodegenerative disorders such as Alzheimer's and Parkinson's diseases. We report that Cdk5 also plays an important role in the proliferation of breast cancer cells MCF-7 and MDA MB-231 and is functionally involved in chemosensitivity as well as in cell death pathways induced by anti-cancer drug carboplatin (Carb). Here, we...
