Post-transcriptional Regulation of P-Glycoprotein Expression in Cancer Cell Lines
1 Jun 2007
Abstract excerpt
The present study of inhibitors shows that the histone deacetylase-induced increase in P-glycoprotein (Pgp) mRNA (MDR1 mRNA) does not parallel either an increase in Pgp protein or an increase in Pgp activity in several colon carcinoma cell lines. Furthermore, studying the polysome profile distribution, we show a translational control of Pgp in these cell lines. In addition, we show that the MDR1 mRNA produced in...
