Hyperthermia effects on Hsp27 and Hsp72 associations with mismatch repair (MMR) proteins and cisplatin toxicity in MMR-deficient/proficient colon cancer cell lines
4 Jun 2015
Abstract excerpt
PURPOSE: Hyperthermia is used in combination with conventional anticancer agents to potentiate their cytotoxicity. One of its key events is the synthesis of heat shock proteins (HSPs), which are able to associate with components from DNA repair mechanisms. However, little is known about their relationship with the mismatch repair system (MMR). Our aim was to study the effects of hyperthermia on cisplatin (cPt)...
