PKCδ promotes etoposide-induced cell death by phosphorylating Hsp27 in HeLa cells.

abstract：:XAF1 (XIAP-associated factor 1) binds to XIAP and blocks its anti-apoptotic activity. It has been reported that XAF1 is mainly expressed in normal tissues but is missing or present at low levels in most cancer cell lines, which implies a tumor-suppressing function. In the present study we describe the identification o...
