P-glycoprotein, multidrug resistance and protein kinase C.
The multidrug resistant (MDR) phenotype is a well-studied subject that has been recognized as a determinant underlying specific types of drug resistance in human cancer. Although it is clear that the P-glycoprotein plays a major role in MDR, it is not clear whether post-translational modifications such as phosphorylation have any major impact on its modulation. The laboratory of Dr. Bruce Chabn...
متن کاملAtypical protein kinase C in insulin action and insulin resistance.
It now seems clear that aPKC (atypical protein kinase C) isoforms are required for insulin-stimulated glucose transport in muscle and adipocytes. Moreover, there are marked defects in the activation of aPKCs under a variety of insulin-resistant conditions in humans, monkeys and rodents. In humans, defects in aPKC in muscle are seen in Type II diabetes and its precursors, obesity, the obesity-as...
متن کاملReversing multidrug resistance by tyrosine kinase inhibitors
Recently, a large number of tyrosine kinase inhibitors(TKIs) have been developed as anticancer agents. These TKIs can specifically and selectively inhibit tumor cell growth and metastasis by targeting various tyrosine kinases and thereby interfering with cellular signaling pathways. The therapeutic potential of TKIs has been hindered by multidrug resistance(MDR), which is commonly caused by ove...
متن کاملMultidrug Resistance in Infants and Children
Bacterial infections may cause disease and death. Infants and children are often subject to bacterial infections. Antimicrobials kill bacteria protecting the infected patients andreducing the risk of morbidity and mortality caused by bacteria. The antibiotics may lose their antibacterial activity when they become resistant to a bacteria. The resistance to different antibiotics in a bacteria is ...
متن کاملFumitremorgin C reverses multidrug resistance in cells transfected with the breast cancer resistance protein.
Fumitremorgin C (FTC) is a potent and specific chemosensitizing agent in cell lines selected for resistance to mitoxantrone that do not overexpress P-glycoprotein or multidrug resistance protein. The gene encoding a novel transporter, the breast cancer resistance protein (BCRP), was recently found to be overexpressed in a mitoxantrone-selected human colon cell line, S1-M1-3.2, which was used to...
