Multidrug resistance (MDR) is often related to expression of P-glycoprotein (Pgp) or Multihg Resistance Protein (MRP). Pgp-mediated MDR can be evaluated by determining cellular retention of fluorescent substrates by flow cytometry. This study determined if agents used to evaluate Pgp function also c

In this study we show that multidrug-resistant (MDR) human KB-VI cells are highly resistant to the cytotoxicity of okadaic acid and calyculin A, 2 toxins from marine sponges that are potent inhibitors of type-I and type-2A protein phosphatases (PPl and PP2A). Cytotoxicity and colony-forming assays i
The present study characterized the response of P-glycoprotein (P-gp) and multidrug resistance-associated protein (MRP1) to chronic ritonavir (RIT) exposure by assessing increases in P-gp and MRP1 protein expression and activity. LS-180V intestinal carcinoma cells were exposed for 3 days to 1Β±100 mM
