Analysis of ABCG2 expression and side population identifies intrinsic drug efflux in the HCC cell line MHCC-97L and its modulation by Akt signaling
26 Sept 2008
Abstract excerpt
Active drug efflux by the adenosine triphosphate-binding cassette (ABC) transporter ABCG2 is one of the common mechanisms causing multiple drug resistance in various human cancers. In the intrinsic drug resistance of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), the role of ABCG2 is closely associated with 'side population (SP)', a minor subset of cancer stem-like cells with unique capacity to extrude lipophilic dye Hoechst...
