Selective Cytotoxicity of the NAMPT Inhibitor FK866 Toward Gastric Cancer Cells With Markers of the Epithelial-Mesenchymal Transition, Due to Loss of NAPRT
30 Jul 2018
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND & AIMS: Markers of the epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) in gastric tumor tissues are associated with poor patient outcomes. We performed a screen to identify pharmacologic compounds that kill gastric cancer cells with EMT-associated gene expression patterns and investigate their mechanisms. METHODS: We identified 29 gastric cancer cell lines with a gene expression signature previously...
