NF-κB inhibitor reverses temozolomide resistance in human glioma TR/U251 cells
21 Apr 2015
Abstract excerpt
Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) demonstrates an unsatisfactory clinical prognosis due to the intrinsic or acquired resistance to temozolomide (TMZ) exhibited by the tumors. One possible cause of TMZ resistance in GBM is the overexpression of O6‑methylguanine‑DNA methyltransferase (MGMT), which can repair the TMZ‑induced guanine damage in DNA. Additionally, excessive activated NF‑κB is reported to be a component of...
