title: Reversal of anticancer drug resistance by COTC based on intracellular glutathione and glyoxalase I.
abstract: Suppression of resistance to anticancer drugs by COTC of glyoxalase I (GloI) inhibitor targeting intracellular glutathione (GSH) and GloI was studied. Depletion of the cellular GSH content and inhibition of GloI by COTC increased chemotherapy-mediated apoptosis in apoptosis-resistant pancreatic adenocarcinoma AsPC-1 cells.
