## Abstract Paclitaxel (PTX) is a very effective drug in treating tumors. It disturbs microtubule dynamics and impairs the transition of cells from metaphase to anaphase in mitosis, leading to cell death by apoptosis. However, the effectiveness of PTX in cancer chemotherapy is hampered by drug resi

Besides its acute and chronic effects on corticosteroid synthesis, the pituitary adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) regulates diverse adrenocortical biological functions including the synthesis of a number of mitochondrial, cytoplasmic, and secreted proteins. ACTH-induced secreted proteins are candi
We previously reported that the aminopeptidase inhibitor bestatin induced apoptosis in several human leukemia cell lines. The present study was performed to examine whether bestatin can also induce apoptosis in solid tumor cell lines. Bestatin alone exhibited neither direct growth inhibition nor ind
Cholangiocarcinomas (CCAs) are aggressive cancers, with high mortality and poor survival rates. Only radical surgery offers patients some hope of cure; however, most patients are not surgical candidates because of late diagnosis secondary to relatively poor accuracy of diagnostic means. MicroRNAs (m
