Periostin Contributes to Cisplatin Resistance in Human Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer A549 Cells via Activation of Stat3 and Akt and Upregulation of Survivin

Background/Aims: Periostin is upregulated in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). This study was done to explore the function of periostin in the development of cisplatin (CDDP) resistance in NSCLC. Methods: The effects of overexpression or knockdown of periostin on CDDP sensitivity was examined in A...
