Physiological expression and function of the MDR1 transporter in cytotoxic T lymphocytes
16 Apr 2020
Abstract excerpt
Multidrug resistance-1 (MDR1) acts as a chemotherapeutic drug efflux pump in tumor cells, although its physiological functions remain enigmatic. Using a recently developed MDR1-knockin reporter allele (Abcb1aAME), we found that constitutive MDR1 expression among hematopoietic cells was observed in cytolytic lymphocytes-including CD8+ cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs) and natural killer cells-and regulated by...
