PCPH/ENTPD5 Expression Confers to Prostate Cancer Cells Resistance against Cisplatin-Induced Apoptosis through Protein Kinase Cα–Mediated Bcl-2 Stabilization

Abstract excerpt

Prostate cancer (PCa) frequently develops antiapoptotic mechanisms and acquires resistance to anticancer drugs. Therefore, identifying PCa drug resistance determinants should facilitate designing more effective chemotherapeutic regimens. Recently, we described that the PCPH protein becomes highly expressed in human prostatic intraepithelial neoplasia and in PCa, and that the functional interaction between PCPH...
