Cetuximab enhances the effect of oxaliplatin on hypoxic gastric cancer cell lines

Xu

Abstract: Abstract. Hypoxia is recognized as an important factor contributing to cancer development and drug resistance. Cetuximab, a chimeric monoclonal antibody to EGFR, is known to inhibit HIF-1· expression levels and to enhance the cytotoxicity of chemotherapeutic agents. We demonstrated that hypoxia induced drug resistance in gastric cancer cells. Cetuximab enhanced oxaliplatin-induced cytotoxicity and apoptosis in normoxia and caused a reversal of drug resistance in hypoxia. Normoxic and hypoxic gastric cancer cel… Show more

“…Luo et al indicated that cetuximab enhanced the effect of OXA on gastric cancer cells via ERK/Akt pathways. 33 In addition, capilliposide C reversed OXA resistance in esophageal squamous carcinoma cells via downregulating the PI3K/Akt signaling pathway. 34 On the basis of the results, Tan IIA enhanced the sensitivity of SW480/OXA cells to OXA in vitro and in vivo by inhibiting Akt/ERK pathway.…”

“…Nonetheless, the most effective treatment for patients with the incurable condition is chemotherapy, preventing tumor invasion and metastasis [9]. Luo et al (2010) implies that its effects are stable with overall 5-year survival ratioes ranging from 5% to 15% [10]. Despite recent advancements in treatment of GC, overall survival statistics for patients with gastric cancer continue to be poor, which implies the urgency of discovering and developing new therapeutic approaches or agents for GC.…”
