Restricting extracellular Ca2+ on gefitinib-resistant non-small cell lung cancer cells reverses altered epidermal growth factor-mediated Ca2+ response, which consequently enhances gefitinib sensitivity.
Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), one of the leading causes of cancer-related death, has a low 5-year survival rate owing to the inevitable acquired resistance toward antitumor drugs, platinum-based chemotherapy, and targeted therapy. Epidermal growth factor (EGF)-EGF receptor (EGFR) signaling act...
