The Journal of the National Cancer Institute published our paper entitled “Expression of a Multidrug Resistance Gene in Human Cancers” ( 1 ) 26 years ago. It was the first systematic determination of whether the energy-dependent multidrug efflux pump P-glycoprotein (P-gp), the product of the ABCB1 (MDR1) gene, was expressed in human cancers and has been cited over 1200 times.
