Inhibition of <i>NANOG/NANOGP8</i> Downregulates MCL-1 in Colorectal Cancer Cells and Enhances the Therapeutic Efficacy of BH3 Mimetics
11 Sept 2014
Abstract excerpt
PURPOSE: High levels of BCL-2 family members in colorectal carcinoma cause resistance to treatment. Inhibition of NANOG or its paralog NANOGP8 reduces the proliferation, stemness, and tumorigenicity of colorectal carcinoma cells. Our hypothesis was that inhibition of NANOG/NANOGP8 enhances the cytotoxic effect of BH3 mimetics targeting BCL-2 family members in colorectal carcinoma cells through reducing expression...
