Mapping the Role of P-gp in Multidrug Resistance: Insights from Recent Structural Studies
28 Apr 2025
Abstract excerpt
P-glycoprotein (P-gp/ABCB1), a key ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporter, plays a central role in multidrug resistance (MDR), one of the leading causes of chemotherapy failure in cancer treatment. P-gp actively pumps chemotherapeutic agents out of cancer cells, reducing intracellular drug concentration and compromising therapeutic efficacy. Recent advancements in structural biology, particularly cryogenic...
