| Abstract | Cisplatin is the first-line chemotherapy for the treatment of several cancers. However, the development of cisplatin resistance represents a major clinical problem, and the mechanisms of acquired resistance are not fully understood. Here we show that degradation of the Bcl-2 homology 3-only proapoptotic protein Bim plays an important role in cisplatin resistance in ovarian cancer. Specifically, we show that treatment of ovarian cancer cells with cisplatin caused Bim phosphorylation and subsequent degradation and that its degradation is associated with cisplatin resistance. We also show that cisplatin treatment caused the activation of ERK, which correlated with Bim phosphorylation and degradation. By inhibiting ERK phosphorylation with the MEK inhibitor and knocking down ERK expression with siRNA, we show that Bim phosphorylation and degradation were blocked, which suggests that Bim is phosphorylated by ERK and that such phosphorylation is responsible for cisplatin-induced Bim degradation. We show that ERK was activated in cisplatin-resistant OV433 cells as compared with their counterpart parental OV433 cells. We also show that Bim was phosphorylated and degraded in cisplatin-resistant OV433 cells but not in the parental OV433 cells. Importantly, we show that inhibition of Bim degradation by the proteasome inhibitor MG132 sensitized resistant OV433 cells to cisplatin-induced death. Taken together, our data indicate that degradation of Bim via ERK-mediated phosphorylation can lead to cisplatin resistance. Therefore, these findings suggest that cisplatin resistance can be overcome by the combination of cisplatin and the proteasome inhibitors in ovarian cancer cells. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
