Gamma-secretase inhibition combined with platinum compounds enhances cell death in a large subset of colorectal cancer cells.
BACKGROUND: Notch signalling is essential for the development and maintenance of the colonic epithelium. Its inhibition induces a differentiation phenotype in vivo and reduces adenomas in APCmin mice. Whether Notch signals are also required in colorectal cancer (CRC) has remained elusive. Therefore...
