We have determined the ability of two human ovarian carcinoma cells to over-express metallothioneins (MTs) and the subsequent effect this elevation has on DDP cytotoxicity. Cells of 2008 and COLO 316 human ovarian carcinomas that were resistant to CdCl2 were obtained by stepwise selection and chroni

Two sublines were derived from a human bladder carcinoma continuous cell line (RTI 12-P), one by exposure to fractionated X-irradiation (RTI IZ-DXRa) and the other by continuous exposure to cisplatin (RT 112-CP). RTI I2-DXR8 cells were I .6to 2-fold more sensitive to cisplatin and 2 analogues, carbo
Cellular sensitivity to cis-diamminedichloroplatinum(ll) (cDDP) can be regulated by protein kinase C (PKC) signal transduction pathway. Activators of PKC were shown to enhance the sensitivity of human ovarian carcinoma 2008 cells to cDDP. We have examined whether or not the PKC signal transduction p
