Inhibition of NRF2 by PIK-75 augments sensitivity of pancreatic cancer cells to gemcitabine
23 Dec 2013
Abstract excerpt
We describe the potential benefit of PIK-75 in combination of gemcitabine to treat pancreatic cancer in a preclinical mouse model. The effect of PIK-75 on the level and activity of NRF2 was characterized using various assays including reporter gene, quantitative PCR, DNA-binding and western blot analyses. Additionally, the combinatorial effect of PIK-75 and gemcitabine was evaluated in human pancreatic cancer...
