Recurrent gliomas are most often treated by chemotherapy. However, these tumors typically acquire resistance to most drugs administered, and patients will usually die of recurrent tumor. Factors which may play a role include overexpression of putative multidrug resistance genes, such as the multidru

## Abstract Midkine (MK) is a heparin binding growth factor having functions of neuriteβoutgrowth, mitogenesis and tissue repair. This molecule is involved in tumor growth and metastasis. The MK molecule consists of five exons, but there is a truncated isoform, lacking exon 3. We established SW13 c
Multidrug resistance (MDR) in human cancer cells is multifactorial. Previously, we reported on the association between expression of P-glycoprotein (Pgp), the multidrug resistanceassociated protein (MRP), and the lung resistance protein (LRP) with the MDR phenotype in the NCI panel of 60 human cance
Three cell lines derived from small-cell lung carcinoma (SCLC) tumors of patients who had no clinical response after treatment with a multi-drug regimen were compared to 3 cell lines derived from tumors of patients who, upon treatment, showed a complete clinical response. These 2 groups of cell line
