Copper-Transporting P-Type ATPase, ATP7A, Confers Multidrug Resistance and Its Expression Is Related to Resistance to SN-38 in Clinical Colon Cancer
15 May 2007
Abstract excerpt
We and others have shown that the copper transporters ATP7A and ATP7B play a role in cellular resistance to cis-diaminedichloroplatinum (II) (CDDP). In this study, we found that ATP7A transfection of Chinese hamster ovary cells (CHO-K1) and fibroblasts isolated from Menkes disease patients enhanced resistance not only to CDDP but also to various anticancer drugs, such as vincristine, paclitaxel,...
