Abstract excerpt
The efficacy of the epipodophyllotoxins VP-16 and VM-26 is limited by the occurrence of drug resistance in the tumor cell population. Cellular insensitivity to drugs that stabilize the cleavable complex is frequently expressed as multidrug resistance (MDR). In some cell lines, overexpression of MDR-1/P-glycoprotein or the multidrug resistance associated protein (MRP) has been demonstrated and implicated as the...
