Résumé

This report summarizes the present state of our knowledge pertaining to the NO-induced resistance or sensitization of tumor cell death. The effects of NO and its synergy with members of the TNF family, with cytotoxic drugs, and with ionizing radiations have been investigated. The dual effect of NO-induced resistance or sensitization and the underlying molecular mechanisms are discussed.
