Title | Overcoming chemoresistance in osteosarcoma: the role of autophagy in cell death or survival following chemotherapy |
Authors | Rosa, G., Burczynska, B., Stordal, B. and Roberts, H. |
Abstract | Background: For the past 30 years, long-term survival rates in metastatic and recurrent osteosarcoma (OS) patients has remained unchanged. Drug resistance is thought to be the main cause and overcoming this phenomenon is a key step towards greater efficacy with OS therapy. Increasing evidence shows that autophagy, a ‘self-degradation’ pathway, can act as a protective mechanism to help cancer cells thrive under chemotherapeutic stress. The current study investigated the function of autophagy in two OS cell lines of varying metastatic capacity in response to two standard chemotherapy treatments, doxorubicin and cisplatin. |
