#$%^&*AU2014101470A420150319.pdf#####Abstract The present invention provides a ryanodine activator for use in inducing cell death in apoptosis-resistant cells or cancer / tissues having the apoptosis-resistant cells. In particular, the present invention uses neferine as the ryanodine activator for inducing cell death in the apoptosis-resistant cells of cancer in order to treat said cancer. The present invention also provides a method of screening potential drug candidate for treatment of apoptosis-resistant cancer comprising creating cell or animal models with specific knock out of gene expressing ryanodine receptor in order to determine whether said candidate is a ryanodine receptor activator which is capable of inducing cell death selectively in apoptosis-resistant cells. 204w.w unA uo Juno,-) 51,
