Diagnostic Microdosing Approach to Study Gemcitabine Resistance [PDF]
Gemcitabine metabolites cause the termination of DNA replication and induction of apoptosis. We determined whether subtherapeutic "microdoses" of gemcitabine are incorporated into DNA at levels that correlate to drug cytotoxicity. A pair of nearly isogenic bladder cancer cell lines differing in resistance to several chemotherapy drugs were treated with

Objective: Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is a highly malignant gastrointestinal cancer with a 5-year survival rate of only 9%. Of PDAC patients, 15%-20% are eligible for radical surgery.

DNA methylation-independent reversion of gemcitabine resistance by hydralazine in cervical cancer cells. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Down regulation of genes coding for nucleoside transporters and drug metabolism responsible for uptake and metabolic activation of the nucleoside gemcitabine is related with acquired tumor resistance against this agent.

Possible Role of Cytochrome P450 1B1 in the Mechanism of Gemcitabine Resistance in Pancreatic Cancer
Patient-derived xenograft models reportedly represent original tumor morphology and gene mutation profiles. In addition, patient-derived xenografts are expected to recapitulate the parental tumor drug responses.

Resistance to Gemcitabine in Pancreatic Cancer Is Connected to Methylglyoxal Stress and Heat Shock Response [PDF]
Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is a fatal disease with poor prognosis. Gemcitabine is the first-line therapy for PDAC, but gemcitabine resistance is a major impediment to achieving satisfactory clinical outcomes.

Resistance mechanisms to gemcitabine in pancreatic cancer [PDF]
Treatment of pancreatic cancer involves combinations of therapeutics including use of the chemotherapy agent gemcitabine. This thesis aimed to identify gemcitabine resistance mechanisms in pancreatic cancer and so enable discovery of biomarkers to tailor chemotherapy.

Targeting ketone body metabolism in mitigating gemcitabine resistance [PDF]
Chemotherapy is often combined with surgery for muscle invasive and nonmuscle invasive bladder cancer (BCa). However, 70% of the patients recur within 5 years. Metabolic reprogramming is an emerging hallmark in cancer chemoresistance. Here, we report a gemcitabine resistance mechanism that promotes cancer reprogramming via the metabolic enzyme OXCT1 ...

TRIM59/RBPJ positive feedback circuit confers gemcitabine resistance in pancreatic cancer by activating the Notch signaling pathway [PDF]
Pancreatic cancer (PC) is one of the most lethal malignant tumors that lacks effective treatment, and gemcitabine-based chemoresistance occurs frequently. Therefore, new therapeutic strategies for PC are urgently needed.
