Anticancer drug resistance is a major challenge of cancer therapy. We found that irinotecan-resistant NSCLC cells showed increased mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation compared to the drug sensitive NSCLC cells. Previously, we found that combined inhibition of aldehyde dehydrogenase using gossypol, and mitochondrial complex I using phenformin, effectively reduced oxidative phosphorylation in NSCLC. Here, we showed that targeting oxidative phosphorylation with gossypol and phenformin abrogated ...[more]
