Abstract Background: The primary cause of treatment failure in patients with refractory or relapsed B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (r/r B-NHL) is resistance to current therapies, and therapy-induced senescence (TIS) stands out as a crucial mechanism contributing to tumor drug resistance. Here, we analyzed SENEX/Rho GTPase Activating Protein 18 (ARHGAP18) expression and prognostic significance in doxorubicin-induced B-NHL-TIS model and r/r B-NHL patients, investigating its target in B-NHL cell senescence and the effect of combining specific inhibitors on apoptosis resistance in B-NHL-TIS cells. Methods: Raji cells were transfected with the human SENEX shRNA recombinant lentiviral vector (Sh-SENEX) and the empty vector… More >
