## Abstract Gene expression levels of thymidylate synthase (TS), dihydropyrimidine dehydrogenase (DPD), thymidine phosphorylase (TP) and orotate phosphoribosyl transferase (OPRT) have been shown to be associated with response to 5‐fluorouracil‐based therapies. Analyzing these gene expression levels

## Abstract We identified genes related to 5‐fluorouracil (5‐FU) sensitivity in colorectal cancer and utilized these genes for predicting the 5‐FU sensitivity of liver metastases. Eighty‐one candidate genes involved in 5‐FU resistance in gastric and colon cancer cell lines were previously identifie
## Abstract We have recently demonstrated in a Phase I/II study that combination chemotherapy with docetaxel (TXT) and S‐1 is active against metastatic gastric carcinomas. To elucidate the mechanisms underlying the synergistic effects of these drugs, both the growth inhibitory effects and the expre
## Abstract Nuclear factor kappa B (NFκB) is a central participant in the metastasis and chemoresistance of colorectal cancer (CRC). However, it is not fully understood to what extent NFκB contributes to induction of the metastasis‐associated matrix metalloprotease‐9 (__MMP‐9__) gene and sensitivit
