3-O-(Z)-coumaroyloleanolic acid overcomes Cks1b-induced chemoresistance in lung cancer by inhibiting Hsp90 and MEK pathways

Expression of CDC28 protein kinase regulatory subunit 1 (Cks1), an adaptor for cyclin-dependent kinases, is tightly regulated at transcriptional and posttranslational levels. Increased expression of Cks1 has been documented to be attributable to cancer progression, chemoresistance, and chemosensitivity. Here we report that ectopic overexpression of Cks1b in human lung cancer cells (Cks1b-OE) induces chemoresistance of the cells to cisplatin...
