Functional expression of P-glycoprotein in rat brain microglia.
In the central nervous system, the primary targets of the human immunodeficiency virus-1 (HIV-1) are microglia, resulting in a disorder called HIV-1 dementia. P-glycoprotein (P-gp), a membrane-associated ATP-dependent efflux transporter, limits entry into the brain of numerous xenobiotics, including anti-HIV drugs (i.e., protease inhibitors). This project investigates the functional expression ...
متن کاملFunctional correlation of P-glycoprotein expression and genotype with expression of the human immunodeficiency virus type 1 coreceptor CXCR4.
The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between lymphocyte P-glycoprotein (P-gp) expression and genotype in vivo and the expression of lymphocyte receptors critical in the life cycle of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1), i.e., CD4, CCR5, and CXCR4. Using flow cytometry to quantify each membrane receptor/transporter, we demonstrate a highly significant correlation bet...
متن کاملP-glycoprotein expression in human breast cancer cells.
Multidrug resistance in Chinese hamster ovary cells is associated with the Mr 170,000 surface glycoprotein. Using our monoclonal antibody to this protein, we have isolated a complementary DNA clone from an expression vector library. This complementary DNA recognizes a 4.5-kilobase mRNA in drug-resistant but not-sensitive Chinese hamster ovary cells; it also recognizes a 5.0-kilobase mRNA in our...
متن کاملP-glycoprotein expression in human retinal pigment epithelium.
PURPOSE The retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) is a transporting epithelial monolayer that controls hydration and composition of the subretinal space. P-glycoprotein is an ATP-binding cassette transport protein known to transport a wide range of hydrophobic compounds. The expression of P-glycoprotein in barrier epithelial cells suggests that it could serve a normal protective function, possibly c...
متن کاملEffect of Honey on CYP3A4 Enzyme and P-Glycoprotein Activity in Healthy Human Volunteers
The activity of cytochrome p450 isozyme 3A4 (CYP3A4) enzyme and P-glycoprotein (P-gp) is modulated by grapefruit juice and herbal drugs. CYP3A4 is the major phase I drug metabolizing enzyme and P-gp is an ATP-dependent drug efflux pump that regulates the intestinal absorption of orally administered drugs. Honey is commonly consumed as a dietary supplement. However, its influence on human CY...
