Drug Name: Adriamycin
Drug Method: ADR-resistant MCF-7 breast cancer cell subline (MCF-7/ADR) was successfully established in vitro through a stepwise increase of ADR concentrations in the culture based on parental MCF-7 cell lines (MCF-7/S). We used TargetScan (a wide use of target prediction algorithms) in conjunction with pathway enrichment analyses to predict the mRNAs that were most likely to involve in miR-29a-mediated drug resistance in cancers. We confirmed the effects of miR-29a-mediated ADR resistance through MTT and apoptosis assays, and further investigated the activities of two target genes, PTEN and GSK3Beta, by RT-qPCR analyses and western blot assays.
Drug Response: sensitive
Cancer basic information
Cancer: breast cancer
