Multidrug resistance to anticancer drugs, which is often associated with enhanced expression of the ATP‑binding cassette (ABC) transporter P‑glycoprotein (encoded by the ABCB1 gene) may limit the effects of cancer therapy.
Influence of ABCB1 and ABCG2 polymorphisms on the antiemetic efficacy in patients with cancer receiving cisplatin-based chemotherapy: a TRIPLE pharmacogenomics study.
We also found that the 3435TT genotype of MDR1 was associated with a lower risk of non-cardiac cancer (OR = 0.42; 95% CI = 0.23-0.79), middle-third cancer (OR = 0.36; 95% CI = 0.17-0.77), advanced cancer (OR = 0.31; 95% CI = 0.13-0.73), venous invasion (OR = 0.30; 95% CI = 0.10-0.91), and lymph node metastasis (OR = 0.28; 95% CI = 0.13-0.65).
Summary odds ratios (ORs) and corresponding 95% confidence intervals (CIs) for MDR1C3435T polymorphism and cancer were estimated using fixed- and random-effects models when appropriate.
The aim of this study was to evaluate the association between OPRM1 and ABCB1 polymorphisms on pain relief with epidural sufentanil in 69 patients after rectosigma resection for cancer.
Unlike in previous reports the mdr1 promoter was no more active in two cancer cell lines with mutations in the p53 gene than in two other lines with wild-type p53, and its expression level could not be increased by either doxorubicin or taxol.
In addition, stratification analysis demonstrated a remarkable association of ABCB1rs3842 with the risk of cancer manifested in women (OR, 2.57; 95% CI, 1.36-4.85), in the histologic type of adenocarcinoma (OR, 1.42; 95% CI, 1.03-1.99), and in individuals aged <60 years (OR, 1.50; 95% CI, 1.05-2.14).
In the present study, we evaluated the role of the GCS gene in doxorubicin resistance using several paired wild-type and drug-resistant (doxorubicin-selected) cancer cell lines, including breast, ovary, cervical, and colon.
We have previously found association between the ABCB1 C-rs3789243-T polymorphism and CRC risk and interactions between the ABCB1 C-rs3789243-T and C3435T polymorphisms and meat intake in relation to CRC risk (Andersen, BMC Cancer, 2009, 9, 407).
Our objective was to determine the elimination constant (kH) for hepatic elimination of technetium Tc 99m-labeled sestamibi (99mTc-MIBI) in patients with cancer and to compare this putative indicator of ABCB1 phenotype with clinical features and common ABCB1 genetic variants.
This study investigates the association between ABCB1 gene polymorphism at exon 26 (3435C>T) and risk to UADT cancers in Tamilians, a population of south India.
We found a substantial reduction in cancer risk (OR 0.39; 95% CI 0.25-0.61; Pinteraction = 0.029) associated with combined genotypes for CYP2A13 R257C and a functionary regulatory variant in the cis element of ABCB1 synergistically targeted by GATA binding protein 6 and FOXA2.
The human multi-drug resistance gene (MDR1), which encodes the major trans-membrane transporter P-glycoprotein (P-gp), was found to be associated with susceptibility to cancer and response to chemotherapy.
We investigated the incidence of C3435T polymorphisms at exon 26 in the MDR-1 gene in 92 women with breast cancer and potential association of altered genotypes with smoking and high body mass index in cancer development among patients.
Impact of CYP3A5 and ABCB1 gene polymorphisms on fentanyl pharmacokinetics and clinical responses in cancer patients undergoing conversion to a transdermal system.
