چکیده

An MCF-7 human breast cancer cell line was selected which was 200fold more resistant to Adriamycin than the wild type cell line. This Adriamycin-resistant (Adr") cell line exhibited a multidrug-resistant phenotype and was cross-resistant to a wide range of antineoplastic agents including Vinca alkaloids, anthracyclines, and epipodophyllotoxins. Cytogenetic analysis of the Adr" cell line showed the presence of homoge neously staining regions on several chromosomes which were not present in the parental cell line. Using the technique of in-gel renaturation, DNA sequences which were amplified 50to 100-fold in the Adr" cell line and which covered a total of over 140 kilobases were isolated. In addition, Adr" cells were found to contain amplified and overexpressed sequences which were homologous to hamster P-glycoprotein gene sequences. A hamster cDNA P-glycoprotein gene probe was used to screen a XgtlO cDNA library made from human Adr" cell line mRNA and human cDNA sequences homologous to the P-glycoprotein gene were isolated. Hybrid ization studies with the cloned human cDNA (pADRl) showed that the Adr* MCF-7 cell line contained a 60-fold amplification of this DNA sequence and that polyadenylated mRNA from the Adr" cell line con tained a 4.8-kilobase transcript which was overexpressed 45-fold. There was a direct correlation between DNA and RNA copy number of this sequence and level of resistance among several MCF-7 Adriamycinresistant cell lines. In situ hybridization studies demonstrated that the human P-glycoprotein gene sequence was found on chromosome 7q21.1 in normal human lymphocytes and that amplified DNA sequences isolated from the Adr" MCF-7 cells by the in-gel hybridization technique were linked to the human P-glycoprotein sequences in the homogeneously staining regions in the Adr" cells.

Cross-resistance to Vincristin and Etoposide in a sub line of the human breast cancer T47D cells selected for Adriamycin-resistance

Breast cancer is one of the most common malignancies among women. Although chemotherapy remains a major therapeutic approach to treat cancers, drug therapy often fails for several reasons, particularly the drug resistance. Resistance to multiple chemotherapeutic agents is one of the most important problems in the treatment of different types of cancers. Therefore, in this study a resistant sub ...

DNA-mediated transfer and cloning of a human multidrug-resistant gene of adriamycin-resistant myelogenous leukemia K562.

We have successfully transferred and cloned a fragment of a human multidrug-resistant gene by using DNA-mediated gene transfer. Macromolecular DNA of human multidrug-resistant K562 cells was transfected to drug-sensitive mouse Ltk- cells to obtain a drug-resistant transfectant with a human resistant gene. Both primary and secondary transfectants showed similar patterns of cross-resistance to Ad...

P-glycoprotein expression in human breast cancer cells.

Multidrug resistance in Chinese hamster ovary cells is associated with the Mr 170,000 surface glycoprotein. Using our monoclonal antibody to this protein, we have isolated a complementary DNA clone from an expression vector library. This complementary DNA recognizes a 4.5-kilobase mRNA in drug-resistant but not-sensitive Chinese hamster ovary cells; it also recognizes a 5.0-kilobase mRNA in our...

Isolation of human mdr DNA sequences amplified in multidrug-resistant KB carcinoma cells.

The ability of tumor cells to develop simultaneous resistance to structurally different cytotoxic drugs constitutes a major problem in cancer chemotherapy. It was previously demonstrated that multidrug-resistant Chinese hamster cell lines contain an amplified, transcriptionally active DNA sequence designated mdr. This report presents evidence that multidrug-resistant sublines of human KB carcin...
