Polymorphisms of p53 and MDM2 genes are associated with severe toxicities in patients with non-small cell lung cancer.

abstract：:TPCK is widely used as an inhibitor of chymotrypsin-like proteases but has recently been identified as an inhibitor of the PDK1/Akt pathway. In this study, we show that TPCK inhibits TRAIL-induced caspase activity but potentiates wortmannin-dependent caspase activity in prostatic carcinoma cell lines. The inhibitory a...
