Abstract excerpt
We selected an apoptosis-resistant subline (VC-33) in a human promyelocytic leukemia cell line, HL-60, by alternating exposure to camptothecin (CPT) and etoposide (VP-16). When wild-type (WT) and VC-33 cells were incubated with various concentrations of either CPT or VP-16 for 4 h, VC-33 showed several-fold resistance to apoptosis induced by these agents in comparison with WT cells. VC-33 cells also exhibited...
