Abstract
Resistance to cell death represents one of the hallmarks of cancer. Various genetic and epigenetic changes in malignant cells afford cytoprotection in the face of genomic instability, oncogene activation, microenvironment stress, chemotherapy, targeted anticancer drugs, and even immunotherapy. Central among the regulators of cell life and death are Bcl-2 family proteins, with the founding member of the family (B-cell lymphoma/leukemia-2) discovered via its involvement in chromosomal translocations in lymphomas. The quest for therapeutics that target cell survival protein Bcl-2 represents a long road traveled, with many dead-ends, disappointments, and delays. Finally, a Bcl-2-targeting medicine has gained approval as a new class of anticancer agent. Cancer Res; 76(20); 5914-20. ©2016 AACR.
