Multidrug resistance and rhabdomyosarcoma (Review).
Classical cytotoxic treatment of rhabdomyosarcoma (RMS) is often accompanied by significant morbidity and poor response. This cytotoxic therapy may induce a multidrug resistance (MDR) phenotype in RMS which is associated with decreased effectiveness of chemotherapy. The majority of MDR molecules belong to a family of ABC (ATP binding cassette) transporters. Studies of drug resistance in RMS sug...
متن کاملMultidrug Resistance in Infants and Children
Bacterial infections may cause disease and death. Infants and children are often subject to bacterial infections. Antimicrobials kill bacteria protecting the infected patients andreducing the risk of morbidity and mortality caused by bacteria. The antibiotics may lose their antibacterial activity when they become resistant to a bacteria. The resistance to different antibiotics in a bacteria is ...
متن کاملMultidrug resistance associated proteins in multidrug resistance
Multidrug resistance proteins (MRPs) are members of the C family of a group of proteins named ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporters. These ABC transporters together form the largest branch of proteins within the human body. The MRP family comprises of 13 members, of which MRP1 to MRP9 are the major transporters indicated to cause multidrug resistance in tumor cells by extruding anticancer dru...
متن کاملIn vitro prevention of the emergence of multidrug resistance in a pediatric rhabdomyosarcoma cell line.
We have established preclinical models for the development of drug resistance to vincristine (a major drug used in the treatment of pediatric rhabdomyosarcoma) using cell lines. The RD cell line has a mutant P53 phenotype and does not have detectable P-glycoprotein (P-gp) or multidrug resistance-related protein (MRP) despite expressing low levels of mdr-1 mRNA, which encodes P-gp and mrp1 mRNA....
متن کاملInhibition of glutathione-S-transferase as a treatment strategy for multidrug resistance in childhood rhabdomyosarcoma.
Multidrug resistance (MDR) is a common problem in the treatment of childhood rhabdomyosarcoma (RMS). A complete reversal of MDR is currently not possible. The aim of this study was to investigate the role of glutathione-S-transferase (GST) as mechanism of MDR in childhood RMS and to analyze possible reversal strategies. Female athymic mice underwent xenotransplantation with embryonal or alveola...
