## Multidrug -resistance (MDR) is characterized by the presence of a 170 kDa glycoprotein (P-glycoprotein) in the plasma membrane. P-glycoprotein is thought to act as an efflux pump, leading to reduced drug accumulation in MDR cells. This defect in drug accumulation can be overcome by membrane tra
A range of anthracyclines and related compounds were evaluated for activity against murine and human cell lines exhibiting multidrug resistance (MDR). Cell lines used were the NCI-H69 human small-cell lung cancer line and the EMT6 murine mammary tumour line, together with their multidrug-resistant c
## Abstract We studied the restoration of doxorubicin accumulation and sensitivity by verapamil and quinine in a variant of the human erythroleukemia cell line K562 selected for resistance to doxorubicin and presenting a multidrugβresistance (MDR) phenotype. Verapamil was able to completely restore
