Although it has been well established that the drug efflux pump P-glycoprotein (P-gp) protects the brain against the entry of cytotoxic drugs, its real in situ localization, i.e., at brain capillary endothelial cells or on astrocyte foot processes, is still controversial. The aim of this study was t
Human non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is considered to be a chemotherapy-refractory malignancy. The underlying mechanisms remain rather obscure. The multidrug resistanceassociated protein (MRP), mediating a multidrug resistance (MDR) phenotype, has been reported to be overexpressed in several dru
Annamycin (Ann) is a highly lipophilic anthracycline antibiotic that has been shown to circumvent MDR-1 both in vitro and in vivo. A liposomal formulation of Ann is currently in phase I clinical trials. The multidrug resistance-associated protein (MRP) has been found to be over-expressed in some hum
