Genetic basis for the increased expression of vacuolar H+ translocating ATPase genes upon imatinib treatment in human lymphoblastoid cells

Purpose The role of v-ATPases in cancer biology is being increasingly recognized. Yeast studies indicate that the tyrosine kinase inhibitor imatinib may interact with the v - ATPase genes and alter the course of cancer progression. Data from humans in this regard are lacking. Methods We constructed...
