siRNA knockdown of mitochondrial thymidine kinase 2 (TK2) sensitizes human tumor cells to gemcitabine

Nucleoside metabolism enzymes are determinants of chemotherapeutic drug activity. The nucleoside salvage enzyme deoxycytidine kinase (dCK) activates gemcitabine (2′, 2′-difluoro-2′-deoxycytidine) and is negatively regulated by deoxycytidine triphosphate (dCTP). Reduction of dCTP in tumor cells could...
