A study of MCF-7 human breast cancer cells was undertaken to ascertain the degree of apoptosis induction by paclitaxel and if the induction of apoptosis could be enhanced by caffeine. Paclitaxel (0-20 ng/ml) caused concentration-dependent increases in morphologically identifiable apoptotic cells (up

Resistance to apoptosis plays an important role in tumors that are refractory to chemotherapy and ionizing radiation (IR). bax, which forms a heterddimer with bcl-2 and accelerates apoptosir, is not, or only weakly. expremed in most human breast cancer cells, and weak bax expression is considered to
## Abstract Criptoβ1 (CRβ1) is an epidermal growth factor (EGF)βCFC protein that has been shown to signal through nodal/Alkβ4, PI3K/Akt, and/or ras/raf/MEK/MAPK pathways in mammalian cells, and that is frequently expressed in human primary breast carcinomas. In the present study, the human estrogen
## Abstract Rotenone is an inhibitor of the mitochondrial electron transport chain complex I, resulting in the generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS). Rotenone has been shown to display anticancer activity through the induction of apoptosis in various cancer cells. However, the underlying mech
