Among these, the non-cytotoxic lignan (±) pinoresinol successfully restored sensitivity to doxorubicin from 7 μM in the P-gp overexpressed human myelogenous leukemia cells, Lucena 1.
Reversal of p-glycoprotein-mediated multidrug resistance by macrocyclic bisbibenzyl derivatives in adriamycin-resistant human myelogenous leukemia (K562/A02) cells.
Studies in myelogenous leukemia and myeloma have so far provided best evidence for a significant correlation between P-glycoprotein expression and response to chemotherapy, although large discrepancies in the proportion of positive cells limit any definite conclusion.
We have isolated a cDNA clone, pCA12-2, from a lambda gt11 cDNA library of an adriamycin-resistant subline of human myelogenous leukemia K562 (K562/ADM) by plaque hybridization with the 2.6 kb genomic probe of P-glycoprotein reported previously.
The evaluation of 107 bone marrow specimens from 84 children with lymphoblastic or myelogenous leukemia showed a statistically significant (P = .004) increase in P-gp function at relapse.
Our data demonstrate a role of STAT3 in regulation of mdr1 gene expression in myeloid leukemia and suggest that STAT3 may be a promising therapeutic target for overcoming MDR resistance in myeloid leukemia.
The amplified c-myc gene in a colon adenocarcinoma cell line, COLO 320HSR, and the amplified mdr-1 gene in an adriamycin-resistant myelogenous leukemia cell line, K562/ADM, were not eliminated by BA.
Decreased expression of the amplified mdr1 gene in revertants of multidrug-resistant human myelogenous leukemia K562 occurs without loss of amplified DNA.
To characterize the membrane changes related to adriamycin (ADM) resistance in tumor cells, we have developed monoclonal antibodies against an ADM-resistant subline of human myelogenous leukemia K562 (K562/ADM), and reported the overexpression of P-glycoprotein and 85-kDa protein as determined by the antibodies.
In the subgroup analysis, according to the type of leukemia, significant association was found between MDR1G2677T polymorphism and myeloid leukemia but not lymphoblastic leukemia (TT vs. GG: OR = 0.66, 95% CI = 0.46-0.95, P = 0.026; TT vs.
Utilizing the leukemia-associated BCR-ABL p210 transcript as a marker, we sought differences in the induction of illegitimate genetic recombination following high-dose gamma-irradiation of karyotypically normal lymphoblastoid cell lines (LCL) derived from individuals with and without a history of myeloid leukemias.
Assessment of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cell biological characteristics and support hemotopoiesis function in patients with chronic myeloid leukemia.
These results indicate that ABL and ARG kinase activate distinct differentiation pathways to induce specific diseases in vivo, that is, myeloid leukemia and mastocytosis, respectively.
FK-506 also enhanced the cytotoxicity of VCR in Adriamycin(ADM)-resistant human ovarian cancer A2780 cells (AD10) and ADM-resistant human myelogenous leukemia K562 cells (K562/ADM) in vitro.
We tested roles for two of these, AP-3 adapter complex and PAN deadenylase complex, in resistance to acid stress using a myeloid leukaemia-derived human cell line that we determined to be acid stress resistant.
We have isolated a cDNA clone, pCA12-2, from a lambda gt11 cDNA library of an adriamycin-resistant subline of human myelogenous leukemia K562 (K562/ADM) by plaque hybridization with the 2.6 kb genomic probe of P-glycoprotein reported previously.
Amplification and increased expression of the mdr1 gene associated with multidrug resistance in human tumors were found in multidrug-resistant sublines of human myelogenous leukemia K562 selected with vincristine (K562/VCR) or adriamycin (K562/ADM).
