Abstract The aim of this study was to investigate the potential biological activities of nutlin-3 in the regulation of growth
and proliferation of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) stem cells (CSCs), which may help in sensitizing to
axitinib-induced apoptosis. Nutlin-3 induction of p53 expression was used to test its role in controlling the
cell division pattern and apoptosis of NSCLC cells. A549 cells and H460 cells were pretreated with nutlin-3
and then treated with either an Akt1 activator or shRNA-GSK3 , to investigate the potential role of p53 sensitization in the biological effects of axitinib. We… More >
