ATP binding cassette transporter gene expression in rat liver progenitor cells.
BACKGROUND AND AIM Liver regeneration after severe liver damage depends in part on proliferation and differentiation of hepatic progenitor cells (HPCs). Under these conditions they must be able to withstand the toxic milieu of the damaged liver. ATP binding cassette (ABC) transporters are cytoprotective efflux pumps that may contribute to the preservation of these cells. The aim of this study w...
متن کاملThe role of ATP-binding cassette transporter A2 in childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia multidrug resistance
Acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) is one of the most prevalent hematologic malignancies in children. Although the cure rate of ALL has improved over the past decades, the most important reason for ALL treatment failure is multidrug resistance (MDR) phenomenon. The current study aims to explain the mechanisms involved in multidrug resistance of childhood ALL, and introduces ATP-binding cassette...
متن کاملSpecific gene expression of ATP-binding cassette transporters and nuclear hormone receptors in rat liver parenchymal, endothelial, and Kupffer cells.
Hepatic cholesterol(ester) uptake from serum coupled to intracellular processing and biliary excretion are important features in the removal of excess cholesterol from the body. ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporters play an important role in hepatic cholesterol transport. The liver consists of different cell types, and ABC transporters may exert different physiological functions dependent on ...
متن کاملATP-binding cassette superfamily transporter gene expression in human primary ovarian carcinoma.
PURPOSE The purpose of this study is to attempt to characterize patients with unfavorable clinical outcome by the relative mRNA levels of ABC transporter expression in their tumor samples and to examine whether relative mRNA levels of each of the ABC transporters can be a useful predictor of progression-free survival in advanced ovarian carcinoma. EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN We examined tumor samples...
متن کاملExpression of the ATP-binding cassette transporter gene ABCG1 (ABC8) in Tangier disease.
Several members of the ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporter family are involved in cholesterol efflux from cells. A defect in one member, ABCA1, results in Tangier disease, a condition characterized by cholesterol accumulation in macrophages and virtual absence of mature circulating high-density lipoproteins. Expression of a second member, ABCG1, is increased by cholesterol-loading in human m...
