    Bax expression correlates with cellular drug sensitivity to doxorubicin, cyclophosphamide and chlorambucil but not fludarabine, cladribine or corticosteroids in B cell chronic lymphocytic leukemia

    In B-CLL, non-proliferating B cells accumulate due to defective apoptosis. Cytotoxic therapies trigger apoptosis and deregulation of apoptotic pathways contributes to chemoresistance. Loss of the apoptosis-pro...

    Piceatannol, a hydroxylated analog of the chemopreventive agent resveratrol, is a potent inducer of apoptosis in the lymphoma cell line BJAB and in primary, leukemic lymphoblasts

    The stilbene phytochemicals resveratrol and piceatannol have been reported to possess substantial antitumorigenic and antileukemic activities, respectively. Although recent experimental data revealed the proap...

    Relapse in childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia is associated with a decrease of the Bax/Bcl-2 ratio and loss of spontaneous caspase-3 processing in vivo

    Dysfunction of the p53/Bax/caspase-3 apoptosis signaling pathway has been shown to play a role in tumorigenesis and tumor progression, ie the development of acquired drug resistance. Low expression of the apop...
