Abstract

A comparative cDNA microarray analysis was carried out using human gastric cancer cells and their derivative cells made resistant to 5-fluorouracil. Three genes, SRP72, DNA primase, and caspase-6, were identified that were transiently induced by 5-fluorouracil and also overexpressed in 5-fluorouracil-resistant gastric cancer cells.
