Abstract:Abstract. The E gene from ºX174 encodes a membrane protein with a toxic domain that leads to a decrease in the tumour cell growth rate. With the aim of improving the antitumour effect on lung and colon cancer cells of the currently used chemotherapeutic drugs such as gemcitabine, carboplatin and paclitaxel, and 5-fluorouracil (5FU) plus folinic acid (FA) with irinotecan or oxaliplatine, we investigated a new combined therapy using these drugs associated to the transfection of E gene. Our results showed that E … Show more
