Abstract excerpt
For reversal of MDR1 gene-dependent multidrug resistance (MDR), two small interfering RNA (siRNA) constructs were designed to inhibit MDR1 expression by RNA interference. SiRNA duplexes were used to treat human pancreatic carcinoma (EPP85-181RDB) and gastric carcinoma (EPG85-257RDB) cells. In both cellular systems, siRNAs could specifically inhibit MDR1 expression up to 91% at the mRNA and protein levels....
