Drug transport mechanism of P-glycoprotein monitored by single molecule fluorescence resonance energy transfer
In this work we monitor the catalytic mechanism of P-glycoprotein (Pgp) using single-molecule fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET). Pgp, a member of the ATP binding cassette family of transport proteins, is found in the plasma membrane of animal cells where it is involved in the ATP hydrolysis driven export of hydrophobic molecules. When expressed in the plasma membrane of cancer cells...
متن کاملImprovement of Transmembrane Transport Mechanism Study of Imperatorin on P-Glycoprotein-Mediated Drug Transport.
P-glycoprotein (P-gp) affects the transport of many drugs; including puerarin and vincristine. Our previous study demonstrated that imperatorin increased the intestinal absorption of puerarin and vincristine by inhibiting P-gp-mediated drug efflux. However; the underlying mechanism was not known. The present study investigated the mechanism by which imperatorin promotes P-gp-mediated drug trans...
متن کاملPredicting P-Glycoprotein-Mediated Drug Transport Based On Support Vector Machine and Three-Dimensional Crystal Structure of P-glycoprotein
Human P-glycoprotein (P-gp) is an ATP-binding cassette multidrug transporter that confers resistance to a wide range of chemotherapeutic agents in cancer cells by active efflux of the drugs from cells. P-gp also plays a key role in limiting oral absorption and brain penetration and in facilitating biliary and renal elimination of structurally diverse drugs. Thus, identification of drugs or new ...
متن کاملReconstitution of neurotoxin-stimulated sodium transport by the voltage-sensitive sodium channel purified from rat brain.
Incorporation of the saxitoxin receptor of the sodium channel solubilized with Triton X-100 and purified 250-fold from rat brain into phosphatidylcholine vesicles is described. Fifty to 80% of the saxitoxin receptor sites are recovered in the reconstituted vesicles (KD = 3 nM). Unlike the detergent-solubilized saxitoxin receptor, the reconstituted saxitoxin binding activity is stable to incubat...
متن کاملModulation of anticancer drug-induced P-glycoprotein expression by naringin.
Multidrug resistance (MDR) is a phenomenon that is often associated with decreased intracellular drug accumulation in the tumour cells of a patient, resulting from enhanced drug efflux. It is often related to the overexpression of P-glycoprotein (P-gp) on the surface of tumour cells, thereby reducing drug cytotoxicity. In the present study, naringin (the predominant flavonone found in grapefrui...
