AIMS: The aim was to determine whether increased CK8 and BCRP expression cooperatively contribute to multidrug resistance (MDR) in MCF-7/MX cells. Accumulating evidence suggests that the development and maintenance of cancer MDR involves complex multimodal mechanisms that interact concomitantly and complementarily. In this report, we observed elevated expression of cytokeratin 8 (CK8) in MCF-7/MX, a mitoxantrone...
