Targeting endosomal pH for cancer chemotherapy

Altered pH homeostasis in cancer cells has been linked with essentially all classical hallmarks of cancer, including chemoresistance. We recently identified a conceptually novel mechanism for how dysregulated pH in hypoxic cells causes chemoresistance which is based on the aberrant cellular distribu...

description Altered pH homeostasis in cancer cells has been linked with essentially all classical hallmarks of cancer, including chemoresistance. We recently identified a conceptually novel mechanism for how dysregulated pH in hypoxic cells causes chemoresistance which is based on the aberrant cellular distribution of the endosomal pH regulator, the sodium/hydrogen exchanger 6 (NHE6).
