Investigation of cellular mechanisms involved in apoptosis induced by a synthetic naphthylchalcone in acute leukemia cell lines.

abstract：:The cytotoxic effects of Tomudex (TX) were investigated on a panel of 15 human tumor cell lines expressing a spontaneous sensitivity to the tested agent. We determined the basal cellular amount of relevant cellular factors potentially related to the cytotoxic efficacy of or resistance to TX. We selected thymidylate sy...
