    Abstract : Testing is a costly and an important activity in the software industry today. The systems are becoming more complex and the amount of code is constantly increasing. The majority of systems need to rely on its testing to show that it works, is reliable, and performs according to user expectations and specifications. READ MORE

  3. 18. Heterogeneity of leukemic cells with regard to daunorubicin accumulation and efflux : potential role in drug resistance

    Author : Eva Knaust; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : Drug resi stance. acute myeloid leukemia; flow cytometry; gene expression; transport kinetics; apoptosis; MEDICINE; MEDICIN;

    Abstract : Cellular resistance to chemotherapy is a major cause of treatment failure in acute myelocytic leukemia (AML) and other malignancies. Drug resistance is multifactorial; the most studied mechanism being multidrug resistance (MDR), mediated by the P-glycoprotein (PPG), a transmembrane transport protein with a pump function, encoded by the mdr 1 gene.
