## Abstract Membraneβtype metalloproteinaseβ1 (MT1βMMP) is a transmembrane metalloproteinase overexpressed in tumors, which plays a major role in the first step of proβMMPβ2 activation, leading to the generation of an intermediate 62 kDa species. The second step of MMPβ2 activation that yields to t
To investigate the role of the multidrug resistance-associated protein (MRP1) homologue MRP5 in relation to platinum drug resistance, we examined the steady-state levels of the mRNAs for MRP5 in both lung cancer cell lines and peripheral mononuclear cells (PMN) after exposure to platinum drug and in
