Abstract excerpt
INTRODUCTION: Multidrug resistance (MDR) mediated by P-glycoprotein (P-gp) can compromise the successful treatment of many malignancies including plasma cell myeloma (PCM). However, methods do not yet exist that can accurately determine P-gp activity in PCM patient samples. METHODS: In this study, we have utilized new advances in flow cytometric methods to determine the activity of P-gp in PCM tumor cells....
