Abstract excerpt
Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) T19 cells express a stable P-glycoprotein (P-170)-dependent multidrug resistance (MDR) phenotype and display a 24- to 29-fold cross-resistance to the lipophilic antifolates piritrexim (PTX) and trimetrexate (TMTX). We have examined the ability of various modulators of the MDR phenotype to sensitize T19 cells to TMTX and PTX in a clonogenic assay. An almost complete reversal of TMTX...
