Expression of O6-Alkylguanine-DNA Alkyltransferase in Normal and Malignant Bladder Tissue of Egyptian Patients by Abir A. Saad, Heba Sh. Kassem, Andrew C. Povey, Geoffrey P. Margison

“…These observations suggest that, overall, MGMT levels are increased during human bladder carcinogenesis and that MGMT downregulation is not a common feature of bladder cancers. Based on this, bladder cancers would be expected to be relatively resistant to chemotherapy which involved O6-guanine alkylating antitumour agents.…”
