摘要
Most of the gemcitabine (dFdC) resistant cell lines manifested high NF kappa B activity. The NF kappa B activity can be induced by dFdC and 5-FU exposure. The chemosensitizing effect of disulfiram (DS), an anti-alcoholism drug and NF kappa B inhibitor, and copper (Cu) on the chemoresistant cell lines was examined. The DS/Cu complex significantly enhanced the cytotoxicity of dFdC (resistant cells: 12.2-1085-fold) and completely reversed the dFdC resistance in the resitant cell lines. The dFdC-induced NF kappa B activity was markedly inhibited by DS/Cu complex. The data from this study indicated that DS may be used in clinic to improve the therapeutic effect of dFdC in breast and colon cancer patients. (C) 2009 Published by Elsevier Ireland Ltd.
