Fig. 2From: A literature review of microRNA and gene signaling pathways involved in the apoptosis pathway of lung cancerSchematic representation of human IAPs [53]. XIAP (BIRC4), Survivin (BIRC5), Livin (BIRC7), and BRUCE or Apollone ((BIRC6) are four members of the IAP family. The main cause of resistance to chemotherapy and poor prognosis of lung cancer is the overexpression of IAP proteins, which are the main culprits in escaping apoptosisBack to article page
