1 Administration of bcl-x-antisense oligonucleotides decreased Bcl-xL protein levels in the MKN-45 human gastric cancer cell line. Oligonucleotides BCL2 like 1 Homo sapiens
2 Administration of bcl-x-antisense oligonucleotides decreased Bcl-xL protein levels in the MKN-45 human gastric cancer cell line. Oligonucleotides BCL2 like 1 Homo sapiens
3 In conclusion, we demonstrated that administration of bcl-x-antisense oligonucleotides or overexpression of Bak protein induces sensitization to apoptosis in MKN-45 gastric cancer cells, suggesting that endogenous Bcl-xL expression in cancer cells is an important modulator of apoptosis. Oligonucleotides BCL2 like 1 Homo sapiens
