Repositioning of Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitors as Antagonists of ATP-Binding Cassette Transporters in Anticancer Drug Resistance
نویسندگان
چکیده
The phenomenon of multidrug resistance (MDR) has attenuated the efficacy of anticancer drugs and the possibility of successful cancer chemotherapy. ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporters play an essential role in mediating MDR in cancer cells by increasing efflux of drugs from cancer cells, hence reducing the intracellular accumulation of chemotherapeutic drugs. Interestingly, small-molecule tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs), such as AST1306, lapatinib, linsitinib, masitinib, motesanib, nilotinib, telatinib and WHI-P154, have been found to have the capability to overcome anticancer drug resistance by inhibiting ABC transporters in recent years. This review will focus on some of the latest and clinical developments with ABC transporters, TKIs and anticancer drug resistance.

Multidrug 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...

MPNs including a heterogeneous group of clonal or oligoclonal hamtopathies characterized by proliferation and accumulation of mature myeloid cells. JAK2 tyrosine kinase mutation is the most common molecular lesion identified in 90% of cases. JAK2 is involved in EPO signaling pathway, and mutations in it lead to EPO-independent spontaneous phosphorylation. Most tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKI) a...

Background: Multidrug resistance (MDR) is known to defeat most chemotherapies as one of the main anticancer strategies. The role of overexpression/overactivation of ABC transporters, especially P-glycoprotein (P-gp), in the development of chemotherapy has long been demonstrated. Salinispora is a marine actinomycete genus known for the production of novel bioactive metabolites. Methods: In this...
متن کاملReversing multidrug resistance by tyrosine kinase inhibitors
Recently, a large number of tyrosine kinase inhibitors(TKIs) have been developed as anticancer agents. These TKIs can specifically and selectively inhibit tumor cell growth and metastasis by targeting various tyrosine kinases and thereby interfering with cellular signaling pathways. The therapeutic potential of TKIs has been hindered by multidrug resistance(MDR), which is commonly caused by ove...
متن کاملTyrosine kinase inhibitors as reversal agents for ABC transporter mediated drug resistance.
Tyrosine kinases (TKs) play an important role in pathways that regulate cancer cell proliferation, apoptosis, angiogenesis and metastasis. Aberrant activity of TKs has been implicated in several types of cancers. In recent years, tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) have been developed to interfere with the activity of deregulated kinases. These TKIs are remarkably effective in the treatment of va...
