Table 1. Mechanism of Cisplatin resistance .
Cisplatin resistance | Mechanism of action | Reference |
Pre-target resistance | Avoiding to create cisplatin DNA adduct by decreasing cellular accumulation and efflux the cisplatin outside of the cell | 7,10,11 |
On-target resistance | Enhanced DNA repair machinery and increase toleration of DNA | |
Post-target resistance | Alternation or signaling pathway after DNA deficiency through cisplatin exposure | |
Off-target resistance | An indirect cellular mechanism side effect that is not directly relative to cisplatin exposure but causes evasion of Apoptosis and Cisplatin cell death |
