Study of interrelations between resistance to cisplatin and composition of low molecular weight thiols in murine leukemia L1210 cell lines
Cis-dichlorodiammineplatinum (II), commonly known as cisplatin, is a widely used anticancer drug. However, the therapeutic efficacy of the drug is limited due to various dose-limiting side effects and development of acquired resistance. The resistance of malignant cells to cisplatin may be connected...
