TL;DR: There is a possible link between chronic paclitaxel-resistance and induction of the EMT in EOC cells, and therapeutic benefits such as the restoration of chemosensitivity or suppression of metastasis will be enabled by gaining further insight into the mechanisms underlying chemoresistance and EMT.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that plasma-activated medium also had an anti-tumor effect on chemo-resistant cells in vitro and in vivo and may contribute to a better patient prognosis in the future.

TL;DR: PAM downregulated the expression of AKT kinase, a marker molecule in a survival signal transduction pathway, which suggests that PAM may be a promising tool for therapy of glioblastoma brain tumors by downregulating the survival signals in cancers.

TL;DR: Flow cytometry and western blot analysis showed that plasma treatment of ovarian cancer cells induced apoptosis, and nonequilibrium atmospheric pressure plasma could be a promising tool for therapy for ovarian cancers.

TL;DR: The results indicated that the high IDO expression was involved in the progression of endometrial cancer and correlated with the impaired clinical outcome, suggesting that IDO is a novel and reliable prognostic indicator for endometricrial cancer.
