Does siRNA-mediated inhibition of antiapoptotic genes enhance chemotherapy efficacy in bladder cancer cells?
Since the contribution of one antiapoptotic gene to chemotherapy response can vary between BCa cell lines, the simultaneous knockdown of multiple inhibitors of apoptosis might represent a more promising option for enhancing chemotherapy efficacy in BCa treatment.
Leukemic B cells are able to exert strong clonal dominance over normal components of the immune system, colonize the murine BM in a xenograft model, and disrupt normal bone metabolism leading to lytic bone lesions. This supports the hypothesis that clonotypic MM B cells are reservoirs of disease that persist throughout therapy and give rise to relapse.
