Abstract:BACKGROUND
Cisplatin is commonly used in lung cancer therapy, but cisplatin resistance in lung cancer cells remains an unsolved problem. Here, we report that cytoplasmic APE1 contributes to cisplatin resistance, cell proliferation and migration in lung cancer cells.
METHODS
Immunofluorescence, western blot analysis, lentivirus transfection and scratch assays, and transwell migration and invasion assays were carried out on the cell lines A549 and Calu-1. A total of 124 samples of lung cancer tissues were eval… Show more
