Effect of Curcuminoids on MDR-1 Gene Expression in Multidrug Resistance KBChR-8-5 Human Cervical Cancer Cell Line
Drug resistance is a major problem in cancer chemotherapy. The mechanism that has been most extensively investigated is the expression of the MDR-1 gene product, Pgp. The emergence of natural products as potential anti-MDR molecules is of particular significance, since many of these are essential components of the human diet, they are expected to possess fewer side effects and may possibly repr...
متن کاملQuantitation of doxorubicin uptake, efflux, and modulation of multidrug resistance (MDR) in MDR human cancer cells.
P-glycoprotein (Pgp), a membrane transporter encoded by the MDR1 gene in human cells, mediates drug efflux from cells, and it plays a major role in causing multidrug resistance (MDR). Confocal microscopy was used to study in vitro and in vivo drug accumulation, net uptake and efflux, and MDR modulation by P-glycoprotein inhibitors in MDR1-transduced human MDA-MB-435mdr (MDR) cancer cells. The M...
متن کاملhuman multidrug resistance 1 gene polymorphisms and idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis
background: for the first time we tested an association between the human multidrug resistance gene 1 (mdr1) polymorphisms (snps) and idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (ipf). several mdr1 polymorphisms are associated with pathologies in which they modify the drug susceptibility and pharmacokinetics. materials and methods: we genotyped three mdr1 polymorphisms of 48 ipf patients and 100 control subj...
متن کاملModulation of multidrug resistance proteins by statins in human neuroblastoma
Chemoresistance is a major problem during cancer treatment. ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporter efflux is mainly responsible for this chemotherapeutics resistance of the tumour cells. We have recently observed that in the presence of statins SH-SY5Y neuroblastoma cells show enhanced susceptibility to doxorubicin-induced apoptosis which cannot be explained by simple additivity. In order to mo...
متن کاملExpression of P-glycoprotein in human placenta: relation to genetic polymorphism of the multidrug resistance (MDR)-1 gene.
To evaluate whether mutations in the human multidrug resistance (MDR)-1 gene correlate with placental P-glycoprotein (PGP) expression, we sequenced the MDR-1 cDNA and measured PGP expression by Western blotting in 100 placentas obtained from Japanese women. Nine single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) were observed with an allelic frequency of 0.005 to 0.420. Of these SNPs, G2677A (allelic frequ...
