Expression of Heat Shock Protein 70 Modulates the Chemoresponsiveness of Pancreatic Cancer

Background/AimsHeat shock protein (HSP) 70 is constitutively overexpressed in pancreatic cancer cells (PCCs) and appears to confer protection against chemotherapeutics. We investigated whether modulating HSP 70 increases chemoresponsiveness to gemcitabine in PCCs.Methods : Varying concentrations of...
