OBATOCLAX and ABT-737 induce ER stress responses in human melanoma cells that limit induction of apoptosis.

Anti-apoptotic Bcl-2 family proteins, in particular, Mcl-1, are known to play a critical role in resistance of human melanoma cells to induction of apoptosis by endoplasmic reticulum stress and other agents. The present study examined whether the BH3 mimetics, Obatoclax and ABT-737, which inhibit mu...
