## BACKGROUND. Gastric cancer is one of the most common cancers in Asia. Chemotherapy and radiation therapy have had limited success. Recently, paclitaxel has been found to be effective against a variety of cancers, including lung, breast, ovary, melanoma, and prostate. Whether paclitaxel is effec
Irradiation of human ovarian carcinoma cells (OVCAR 3) and myeloma cells (RPMI 8226) with graded doses of 137Cs-gamma-rays led to a 35-40% increase in time-dependent apoptosis 72 hr after 6-8 Gy irradiation. Large individual variations in sensitivity to radiation-induced apoptosis were noted in huma
Members of the tumor necrosis factor (TNF) family such as CD95 (APO-1/Fas) ligand (L) trigger apoptosis in lymphoid cells. Recently, a new member of apoptosis-inducing ligands, TRAIL (TNF-related-apoptosis-inducing-ligand)/Apo-2 ligand, was identified that might act in a similar way. We compared TRA
