## Abstract Etoposide (VP‐16) resistance is expressed following __in vitro__ exposure of HN‐1 and MCF‐7 human tumor cells to the drug itself or to fractionated × irradiation. VP‐16‐selected sublines prove cross‐resistant to Adriamycin, amsacrine and actinomycin D, whilst X‐ray‐pretreated sublines s
Primary resistance to chemotherapeutic agents is a major problem in the management of advanced cancer. By using oestrogen to modulate the topoisomerase II content of T-47D human breast cancer cells, we show here that cell subpopulations resistant to the topoisomerase-ll-interactive drug VP 16 (etopo
The p53 null HL-60 cell line was transfected with plasmids coding for either the wild-type p53 or mutant p53 gene. The stable expression of wild-type p53 resulted in a significant increase in sensitivity to the topoisomerase II poisons etoposide and doxorubicin, but not to the topoisomerase II inhib
