Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Drug resistance is a major problem in tumor chemotherapy, and recent studies have suggested that the differential sensitivity of cancer cells to chemotherapy is associated with different susceptibilities to undergoing apoptosis. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of int...
