PED/PEA-15 mediates AKT dependent chemoresistance in human breast cancer cells

2005

Killing of tumor cells by cytotoxic therapies, such as chemotherapy or gamma-irradiation, is predominantly mediated by the activation of apoptotic pathways. Refractoriness to anticancer therapy is often due to a failure in the apoptotic pathway. The mechanisms that control the balance between survival and cell death in cancer cells are still largely unknown. Tumor cells have been shown to evade death signals through an increase in the expression of antiapoptotic molecules or loss of proapoptotic factors. We aimed to study the involvement of PED, a molecule with a broad antiapoptotic action, in human breast cancer cell resistance to chemotherapeutic drugs-induced cell death. We show that hum…
