Strong activation of p53 by actinomycin D and nutlin-3a overcomes the resistance of cancer cells to the pro-apoptotic activity of the FAS ligand
28 Jul 2024
Abstract excerpt
The FAS ligand (FASLG) is expressed on lymphocytes, which employ it to activate death receptors on target cells. Cancer cells are generally resistant to apoptosis triggered by FASLG. In this work, we found a way to circumvent this resistance by treatment with actinomycin D (ActD) and nutlin-3a (Nut3a). We selected this drug combination based on our transcriptomic data showing strong activation of proapoptotic...
