P-Glycoprotein (PGP), a product of the multidrug resistance gene (mdr), acts as an adenosine triphosphate-dependent drug efflux system in cells. Initially, PGP was found in cancer cells, but it is now known that PGP is richly distributed in the adult brain. Passage to the central nervous system is l

Liver cancer has traditionally been an attractive system for studying cancer biology Most of our knowledge about hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) has been derived from studies using experimental animals It is well known that liver tumors in rodents can be induced by many different protocols, e g , car
## Abstract The multidrug resistant (MDR) phenotype is often attributed to the activity of ATPβbinding cassette (ABC) transporters such as Pβglycoprotein (ABCB1). Previous work has suggested that modulation of MDR may not necessarily be a single gene trait. To identify factors that contribute to th
