MRP has been identified as another multidrug-resistance (MDR) gene and may be involved in an alternative MDR mechanism in some solid tumors. We investigated the expres- sion of M R P mRNA in multidrug-resistant KB sublines (KB-8-5, KB-CZ, C -W and C A I to), human non-small-cell lung carcinomas (NSC
Pro-inflammatory cytokines suppress the hepatic expression of the multidrug resistance transporters in rodents, indicating potential usefulness in chemotherapy. Our objective was to investigate their impact in human hepatoma cells. HuH 7 and HepG2 cells were treated with IL-1beta, IL-6, or TNF-alpha
## Abstract Inherent and acquired multidrug resistance (MDR) is characterized by a simultaneous resistance to diverse anticancer drugs and is a major impediment towards curative chemotherapy of cancer. Hence one important goal is to develop strategies aimed at specific targeting of major anticancer
