Abstract excerpt
Cell line R9 generated by continuous exposure of MOLT-4 cells to adriamycin was cross-resistant to a variety of unrelated drugs. The following data indicate that diminished apoptotic response was the mechanism of acquired pleiotropic drug resistance: (i) apoptosis was a common mechanism of cell death for agents expressing cross-resistance; (ii) induction of apoptosis by drugs, medium depletion and serum...
