Maritoclax Overcomes FBW7 Deficiency‐Driven Irinotecan Resistance in Colorectal Cancer by Targeting MCL1 [PDF]
Introduction FBW7, a tumor suppressive E3 ubiquitin ligase frequently mutated in colorectal cancer (CRC), mediates chemotherapy resistance. While irinotecan (via its active metabolite SN38) is a first‐line TOP1 inhibitor for advanced CRC, the mechanistic

Irinotecan is an anticancer topoisomerase I inhibitor that acts as a prodrug of the active metabolite, SN-38. Unfortunately, the limited utility of irinotecan is attributed to its pH-dependent stability, short half-life and dose-limiting toxicity.

Hepatic ROS Mediated Macrophage Activation Is Responsible for Irinotecan Induced Liver Injury
Irinotecan is the first line chemotherapy drug used for treatment of metastatic colorectal cancer worldwide. There is increasing evidence suggesting that liver damage, including steatosis and steatohepatitis, can be caused during the treatment involving ...

Irinotecan-Induced Dysarthria [PDF]
Colorectal carcinomas are among the most common tumor types and are generally treated with palliative chemotherapy in case of metastatic disease. Here, we describe the case of a 46-year-old patient with metastatic rectal carcinoma who received second-line therapy with irinotecan and developed isolated transient dysarthria (with normal MR imaging of the

Identification of Sestrin3 Involved in the In vitro Resistance of Colorectal Cancer Cells to Irinotecan. [PDF]
Irinotecan, an analogue of camptothecin, is frequently used as a single agent or in combination with other anticancer drugs for the treatment of colorectal cancer. However, the drug resistance of tumors is a major obstacle to successful cancer treatment.

Establishment and Characterization of an Irinotecan-Resistant Human Colon Cancer Cell Line
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is a leading cause of cancer-related deaths worldwide. Irinotecan is widely used as a chemotherapeutic drug to treat CRC. However, the mechanisms of acquired resistance to irinotecan in CRC remain inconclusive.
