Expression of members of the multidrug resistance protein family in human term placenta.
The placenta serves, in part, as a barrier to exclude noxious substances from the fetus. In humans, a single-layered syncytium of polarized trophoblast cells and the fetal capillary endothelium separate the maternal and fetal circulations. P-glycoprotein is present in the syncytiotrophoblast throughout gestation, consistent with a protective role that limits exposure of the fetus to hydrophobic...
متن کاملA family of drug transporters: the multidrug resistance-associated proteins.
The human multidrug resistance-associated protein (MRP) family currently has seven members. The ability of several of these membrane proteins to transport a wide range of anticancer drugs out of cells and their presence in many tumors make them prime suspects in unexplained cases of drug resistance, although proof that they contribute to clinical drug resistance is still lacking. Recent studies...
متن کاملComparative genomics of the IncA/C multidrug resistance plasmid family.
Multidrug resistance (MDR) plasmids belonging to the IncA/C plasmid family are widely distributed among Salmonella and other enterobacterial isolates from agricultural sources and have, at least once, also been identified in a drug-resistant Yersinia pestis isolate (IP275) from Madagascar. Here, we present the complete plasmid sequences of the IncA/C reference plasmid pRA1 (143,963 bp), isolate...
متن کاملModulation by acrolein and chloroacetaldehyde of multidrug resistance mediated by the multidrug resistance-associated protein (MRP).
Acrolein (AC) and chloroacetaldehyde (CHA) are metabolites of the non-multidrug resistance cytotoxic drugs cyclophosphamide and ifosfamide. It has previously been reported that both metabolites can induce extensive depletion of glutathione (GSH) in vitro and in vivo and that this depletion occurs at drug concentrations in the micromolar range. A link between the function of the multidrug resist...
