PANDAR and urinary bladder carcinoma: In this study, PANDAR attenuates cisplatin-induced apoptosis and IC50 in OC cells (Fig. 2), this pro-survival role of PANDAR in OC is also shown in other types of epithelial cancers, such as in clear cell renal cell carcinoma and bladder cancer, where PANDAR upregulation is associated with poor prognosis and tumorigenesis30–34.
