Expression of Bcl-2-related genes in normal and AML progenitors: changes induced by chemotherapy and retinoic acid
The expression of Bcl-2 family members was examined in normal and leukemic hematopoietic cells. Immature hematopoietic progenitor cells (CD34+/33−/13−) did not express Bcl-2 but Bcl-XL, the majority of CD34 cells...

A multivariate analysis of tumour biological factors predicting response to cytotoxic treatment in advanced breast cancer
The study was designed to identify factors that could predict response to chemotherapy in breast cancer. A total of 173 patients with measurable or evaluable metastatic breast cancer were enrolled in a randomi...

A sequential treatment regimen with melatonin and all-trans retinoic acid induces apoptosis in MCF-7 tumour cells
Neoplastic events are marked by uncontrolled cell proliferation. One major focus of cancer research has been to identify treatments that reduce or inhibit cell growth. Over the years, various compounds, both n...

Co-expression of several molecular mechanisms of multidrug resistance and their significance for paclitaxel cytotoxicity in human AML HL-60 cells
Overexpression of P-glycoprotein (PGP), MRP or LRP has been characterized as the ‘proximal’, while overexpression of the anti-apoptosis Bcl-2 or Bcl-xL relative to the pro-apoptosis Bax protein has been recognize...

Spontaneous overexpression of the long form of the Bcl-X protein in a highly resistant P388 leukaemia
A novel resistant variant of murine P388 leukaemia, P388/SPR, was identified by de novo resistance to doxorubicin (DOX) in vivo. This mutant displayed a similar level of cross-resistance to etoposide (VP-16) a...
