ARTICLE ABSTRACT
We demonstrate that lack of expression of Lrrc8a or Lrrc8d significantly reduces the uptake and efficacy of cisplatin and carboplatin in Pt-sensitive BRCA1;p53-deficient tumors. Moreover, our work provides support to confirm the LRRC8A and LRRC8D gene expression in individual tumors prior to initiation of intensive Pt-based chemotherapy.
