The 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 کاملThe role of ATP-binding-cassette-transporter-A1 (ABCA1) gene polymorphism on coronary artery disease risk.
ATP-binding cassette transporter A1 (ABCA1) plays a pivotal role in intracellular cholesterol removal and exerts a protective effect against atherosclerosis. The role of genetic factors in susceptibility to coronary artery disease (CAD) is not clear. The aim of this study was to evaluate for the first time the possible association between R219K gene polymorphism and coronary artery disease in a...
متن کاملATP-binding cassette transporter A1: regulation of cholesterol efflux.
The ATP-binding cassette transporter A1 (ABCA1) is involved in the regulation of cholesterol efflux from cells. Mutations in ABCA1 give rise to familial high-density lipoprotein (HDL) deficiency and Tangier disease, which is characterized by very low levels of HDL in plasma and cholesteryl ester accumulation in tonsils and other reticuloendothelial cells. The mechanism of action of ABCA1 is sti...

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 کاملATP-binding cassette transporter A1: a cell cholesterol exporter that protects against cardiovascular disease.
Blood high-density lipoprotein (HDL) levels are inversely related to risk for cardiovascular disease, implying that factors associated with HDL metabolism are atheroprotective. One of these factors is ATP-binding cassette transporter A1 (ABCA1), a cell membrane protein that mediates the transport of cholesterol, phospholipids, and other metabolites from cells to lipid-depleted HDL apolipoprotei...
