   Cancer Name epithelial squamous carcinoma
   ICD-0-3  M8070/3
   Methods qPCR, Western blot, Northern blot, Flow cytometry assay etc.
   Sample cell lines (A431, A10A)
   Expression Pattern up-regulated
   Function Description

CUDR was found to be overexpressed in a doxorubicin-resistant subline of human squamous carcinoma A431 and A10A cells, which were also more resistant to drug-induced apoptosis. Stable transfection with the CUDR gene was found to induce resistance to doxorubicin and etoposide as well as drug-induced apoptosis in A431 cells. By Western blot analysis, down-regulations of caspase 3 were observed in CUDR transfectants. On the other hand, overexpression of CUDR promoted anchorage-independent growth in A431 cells.
