| 1 | In this study, we present a new mechanism of Irinotecan which inhibits the activities of MDM2, an E3 ligase of tumour suppressor p53, and Bcl-xL, an anti-apoptotic protein, through direct binding. | Irinotecan | tumor protein p53 | Homo sapiens |
| 2 | We further showed that Irinotecan increased the amount of p53 only in the presence of MDM2 and inhibited the physical interaction of Bcl-xL with Bim, a core pro-apoptotic protein. | Irinotecan | tumor protein p53 | Homo sapiens |
| 3 | Collectively, we suggest a new mechanism of action for Irinotecan as a dual target inhibitor of MDM2 and Bcl-xL facilitating the anticancer activities mediated by p53 and Bcl-xL interaction partners. | Irinotecan | tumor protein p53 | Homo sapiens |
