To examine such a hypothesis, the effect of DEHP on SXR-mediated transcription of the MDR1 gene was studied in the human colon adenocarcinoma-derived cell line, LS174T cells, which endogenously express SXR.
Stable recombinant colonic adenocarcinoma cell (Caco-2) systems transfected with ABCB1 wild-type allele and variant alleles (1236 T, 2677T and 3435T) were constructed.
Fucoxanthin attenuates rifampin-induced cytochrome P450 3A4 (CYP3A4) and multiple drug resistance 1 (MDR1) gene expression through pregnane X receptor (PXR)-mediated pathways in human hepatoma HepG2 and colon adenocarcinoma LS174T cells.
The 285-fold doxorubicin-resistant colon adenocarcinoma subline, LoVo/DR5, was found to overexpress the mRNA for P-glycoprotein without the concomitant requirement of MDR1 gene amplification, suggesting that relatively high levels of P-glycoprotein mediated multiple drug resistance may occur by transcriptional activation of the gene.
Up-regulation of MDR1, which encodes for P-glycoprotein, was confirmed using real-time RT-PCR and Western analysis in hepatocytes as well as in human colon adenocarcinoma cell line (LS-180) and the induction was dose-dependent.
As a result, we found that the pretreatment of human colon adenocarcinoma (Caco-2) cells with 10-mM PTC significantly decreased the intracellular accumulation of P-gp substrate rhodamine 123 (Rho123) compared with the control after 90-min incubation.
The multidrug-resistance (MR) status of camptothecin (CPT) was investigated in colon adenocarcinoma HT29 cells, leukemia K562, and breast carcinoma MCF7 cells expressing P-glycoprotein (Pgp) and/or MR-associated protein (MRP1).
Here, we report that expression of FACL4 is significantly increased in colon adenocarcinoma compared with adjacent normal tissue at both the mRNA and protein levels by quantitative RT-PCR (paired t test, P < 0.015), immunoblot, and immunohistochemical staining.
In summary, the results of our experiments indicate that phosphorylation "status" of cofilin is a factor affecting the actin cytoskeleton organization and migration abilities of colon adenocarcinoma LS180 cells.
The aim of this study was to determine the effect of β- and γ-actin overexpression on the migration capacity and actin cytoskeleton organization of human colon adenocarcinoma BE cells.
