Targeting mitochondrial cell death pathway to overcome drug resistance with a newly developed iron chelate.
BACKGROUND: Multi drug resistance (MDR) or cross-resistance to multiple classes of chemotherapeutic agents is a major obstacle to successful application of chemotherapy and a basic problem in cancer biology. The multidrug resistance gene, MDR1, and its gene product P-glycoprotein (P-gp) are an impor...
