Pharmacological NF-κB inhibition decreases cisplatin chemoresistance in muscle-...
Gil da Costa, Rui; Levesque, C; Bianchi-Frias D; Chatterjee, P; Lam, HM; Santos, C; Coleman, IM; Ferreirinha, P; Vilanova, M; Pinto da Cunha, NMost patients with muscle-invasive bladder cancer (MIBC) are not cured with platinum chemotherapy. Up-regulation of nuclear factor kappa light-chain enhancer of activated B cells (NF-κB) is a major mechanism underlying chemoresistance, suggesting that its pharmacological inhibition may increase platinum efficacy. NF-κB signaling was investigated in two patient cohorts. The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) was used to...
