Effect of Transient Hypoxia on Sensitivity to Doxorubicin in Human and Murine Cell Lines
18 Apr 1990
Abstract excerpt
Overreplication of DNA associated with gene amplification and drug resistance has been reported to occur after transient hypoxia of rodent cells. Because oxygen levels fluctuate in solid tumors, clinical drug resistance might be stimulated by this mechanism. We have therefore studied the effect of transient hypoxia on sensitivity to doxorubicin in human and murine cell lines. Exposure to hypoxia led to a...
