Abstract excerpt
Bcl-2 family proteins are key mediators of programmed cell death. Over-expression of anti-apoptotic Bcl-2 family members (Bcl-2, Bcl-xL, and Mcl-1) has been associated with tumor progression and chemotherapeutic resistance. Pharmacological agents that neutralize the functions of anti-apoptotic Bcl-2 family proteins have emerged as a promising new class of anti-cancer agents. Biochemical analyses have demonstrated...
