Abstract excerpt
Cisplatin remains the most important chemotherapeutic agent for patients with human head and neck cancer. However, tumor cells often develop resistance to cisplatin-induced apoptosis. We previously found that head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) cells exposed to cisplatin display a marked ATM-induced phosphorylation of DeltaNp63alpha. However, the mutated Np63-S385G failed to undergo phosphorylation by...
