MicroRNA-133b targets glutathione S-transferase π expression to increase ovarian cancer cell sensitivity to chemotherapy drugs
BACKGROUND Accumulating studies reveal that aberrant microRNA (miRNA) expression can affect the development of chemotherapy drug resistance by modulating the expression of relevant target proteins. The aim of this study was to investigate the role of miR-133b in the development of drug resistance in ovarian cancer cells. METHODS We examined the levels of miR-133b expression in ovarian carcino...
متن کاملGlutathione-S-transferase-pi (GST-pi) expression in renal cell carcinoma
Multidrug resistance correlates with unfavourable treatment outcomes in numerous cancers including renal cell carcinoma. The expression and clinical relevance of Glutathione-S-transferase-pi (GST-pi), a multidrug resistance factor, in kidney tumors remain controversial. We analyzed the expression of GST-pi in 60 formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded renal cell carcinoma samples by immunohistochemis...
متن کاملEfficacy of a glutathione S-transferase pi-activated prodrug in platinum-resistant ovarian cancer cells.
Human ovarian carcinoma cells (C70 and C200) made resistant to cisplatin from A2780 cells demonstrated an approximately 20-fold resistance to the drug. These same cell lines showed no collateral resistance (as compared with the wild-type) to a novel glutathione S-transferase pi-activated prodrug [gamma-glutamyl-alpha-amino-beta[2-ethyl-N,N,N',N'-tetrakis (2-chloroethyl) phosphorodiamidate]-sulf...
متن کاملExpression of glutathione, glutathione peroxidase and glutathione S-transferase pi in canine mammary tumors
BACKGROUND Glutathione (GSH) is one of the most important agents of the antioxidant defense system of the cell because, in conjunction with the enzymes glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px) and glutathione S transferase pi (GSTpi), it plays a central role in the detoxification and biotransformation of chemotherapeutic drugs. This study evaluated the expression of GSH and the GSH-Px and GSTpi enzymes ...
متن کاملThe glutathione S-transferase M1 genotype in ovarian cancer.
Glutathione S-transferase mu-1 (GSTM1) is a polymorphic member of the mu class gene family of the glutathione S-transferases. Individuals who are GSTM1 null have increased susceptibility to lung and colon cancer. We hypothesized that: (a) GSTM1 null individuals might also be at increased risk for development of ovarian cancer; and (b) the GSTM1 genotype would influence response to chemotherapy....
