1 hTERT-promoter-based tumor-specific expression of MCP-1 effectively sensitizes cervical cancer cells to a low dose of cisplatin. Cisplatin C-C motif chemokine ligand 2 Homo sapiens
2 However, when combined with a suboptimal low dose of cisplatin, tumor formation was obviously reduced in clones transduced with MCP-1, but not in control clones. Cisplatin C-C motif chemokine ligand 2 Homo sapiens
3 These findings suggest that MCP-1 expression sensitizes cervical cancer cells to an otherwise ineffective low dose of cisplatin, possibly by inducing the migration of macrophages to eradicate tumor cells. Cisplatin C-C motif chemokine ligand 2 Homo sapiens
