Proteasome inhibition prevents cell death induced by the chemotherapeutic agent cisplatin downstream of DNA damage

Cisplatin is a highly effective chemotherapeutic drug acting as a DNA-damaging agent that induces apoptosis of rapidly proliferating cells. Unfortunately, cellular resistance still occurs. Mutations in p53 in a large fraction of tumor cells contribute to defects in apoptotic pathways and drug resist...
