Characterization and resistance mechanisms of a 5-fluorouracil- resistant hepatocellular carcinoma cell line.
PURPOSE The chemoresistance of human hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) to cytotoxic drugs, especially intrinsic or acquired multidrug resistance (MDR), still remains a major challenge in the management of HCC. In the present study, possible mechanisms involved in MDR of HCC were identified using a 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) -resistant human HCC cell line. METHODS BEL-7402/5-FU cells were established ...
متن کاملCharacterization and resistance mechanisms of cisplatin-resistant human hepatocellular carcinoma cell line.
OBJECTIVE To study the biological characteristics and resistant mechanisms of the cisplatin-resistant human hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) cell line. METHODS The study took place in the Department of Pharmacology, Chongqing Medical University, Chongqing, China, between April 2005 and November 2007. A resistant HCC cell line (QGY/CDDP) was established by stepwise increasing cisplatin (CDDP) co...
متن کاملEstablishment and characterization of two 5-fluorouracil-resistant hepatocellular carcinoma cell lines
5-Fluorouracil (5-FU) chemotherapy is the first choice treatment for advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), and resistance is the major obstacle to successful treatment. Recent studies have reported that epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) is associated with chemoresistance in cancers. We speculated that EMT and 5-FU metabolism are relate...
متن کاملCytotoxic Effect of Capparis spinosa L. on the PLC/PRF/5 Human Hepatocellular Carcinoma Cell Line
ABSTRACT Background and Objectives: Capparis spinosa has been used in traditional medicine for various applications including treatment of liver disorders and cancer. We studied the effects of this plant on cell proliferation and morphological characteristics of PLC/PRF/5 liver cancer cell line. Method...
متن کاملDownregulation of Rap1 promotes 5-fluorouracil-induced apoptosis in hepatocellular carcinoma cell line HepG2.
Recent studies have revealed that repressor/activator protein (Rap1) not only protects telomeres from sister chromatid exchange, but also functions in genomewide transcriptional regulation. Knockdown of Rap1 sensitizes breast cancer cells to adriamycin-induced apoptosis. However, little is known about the role of Rap1 in the progression of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). The present study aimed...
