Down-regulation of Autophagy-Associated Protein Increased Acquired Radio-Resistance Bladder Cancer Cells Sensitivity to Taxol.
CONCLUSIONS: Long-term FI treatment is an effective method to establish the ARR-phenotype BCa cell model, by enriching BCSCs and enhancing cells migration and invasion. Both inhibiting the expression of autophagy-related proteins and using autophagy inhibitor can increase the sensitivity of ARR cells to taxol, suggesting that autophagy may play an important role in ARR cells chemical tolerance.
