An in vitro model that might be relevant to cancer cell chemoresistance in vivo was generated by exposing the human lung carcinoma clonal cell line DLKP-SQ to 10 sequential pulses of pharmacologically attainable doses of doxorubicin. The resistant variant, DLKP-SQ/10p, was found to be cross-resistan

✦ Synopsis
Abstract
In this work, it was discovered that the stability of mRNA in a cell‐free extract could be controlled by using engineered T7 terminator sequences. Specifically, it was found that mRNA stability gradually decreased as the length of the stem structure of the T7 terminator was reduced sequentially. As a result of the controlled abundance of mRNA species, it was possible to manipulate the relative expression level of target proteins by employing the T7 terminator of adjusted stem lengths.
