Blockade of p38 MAPK overcomes AML stem cell line KG1a resistance to 5-Fluorouridine and the impact on miRNA profiling.

Most of the AML patients in remission develop multidrug resistance after the first-line therapy and relapse. AML stem cells have gained attention for their chemoresistance potentials. Chemoresistance is a multifactorial process resulting from altered survival signaling pathways and apoptosis regulators such as MAPK, NF-κB activation and ROS production.

New Born Calf Serum Can Induce Spheroid Formation in Breast Cancer KAIMRC1 Cell Line.

Three-dimensional (3D) cell culture systems have become very popular in the field of drug screening and discovery. There is an immense demand for highly efficient and easy methods to produce 3D spheroids in any cell format. We have developed a novel and easy method to produce spheroids from the newly isolated KAIMRC1 cell line .
