Genetic and cellular sensitivity of <i>Caenorhabditis elegans</i> to the chemotherapeutic agent cisplatin
2017-12-12
Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Cisplatin and derivatives are commonly used as chemotherapeutic agents. Although the cytotoxic action of cisplatin on cancer cells is very efficient, clinical oncologists need to deal with two major difficulties: (i) the onset of resistance to the drug, and (ii) the cytotoxic effect in patients. Here we use Caenorhabditis elegans to investigate factors influencing the response to cisplatin in m...
