In this study, we tested the sensitivity of two Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma (NPC) cell lines HK1 and C666-1 to Maritoclax, which is reported to repress anti-apoptotic protein MCL-1 and BH3 mimetic ABT-263, which selectively inhibits anti-apoptotic proteins BCL-2, BCL-XL and BCL-w. Here, BCL2L1 is linked to nasopharyngeal carcinoma.
