METHOD OF REGULATING CELL GROWTH USING A PROTEASOME INHIBITOR

摘要

This invention provides methods and pharmaceutical compositions for regulating cell growth or inducing apoptosis in a cell, particularly a mammalian tumor cell. Specifically, the invention provides methods for inducing apoptosis in a tumor cell comprising contacting the tumor cell with a proteasome inhibitor and a thiazole antibiotic, particularly each in a suboptimal amount.
