Article Title: Development of cell cycle inhibitors in the treatment of gastrointestinal cancers
Abstract: Therapeutic targets have been identified as progress has been made in the understanding of the cell cycle. Cell cycle checkpoints guard genetic fidelity by arresting cells at specific stages of the cell cycle. Drugs have been developed that induce cell cycle arrest, and the application of these drugs to colon cancer cell lines is presented.
