Acquired small cell lung cancer resistance to Chk1 inhibitors involves Wee1 up‐regulation
20 Dec 2020
Abstract excerpt
Platinum-based chemotherapy has been the cornerstone treatment for small cell lung cancer (SCLC) for decades, but no major progress has been made in the past 20 years with regard to overcoming chemoresistance. As the cell cycle checkpoint kinase 1 (Chk1) plays a key role in DNA damage response to chemotherapeutic drugs, we explored the mechanisms of acquired drug resistance to the Chk1 inhibitor prexasertib in...
