Mitotic Deregulation by Survivin in ErbB2-Overexpressing Breast Cancer Cells Contributes to Taxol Resistance
15 Feb 2009
Abstract excerpt
PURPOSE: Taxol resistance remains a major obstacle to improve the benefit of breast cancer patients. Here, we studied whether overexpression of ErbB2 may lead to mitotic deregulation in breast cancer cells via up-regulation of survivin that confers Taxol resistance. EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN: ErbB2-overexpressing and ErbB2-low-expressing breast cancer cell lines were used to compare their mitotic exit rate, survivin...
