Abstract excerpt
By continuous exposure of CG5 human breast cancer cell line to increasing doxorubicin (Dx) concentrations, a multidrug-resistant (MDR) subline (CG5/Dx) was obtained. The resistant variant showed P-glycoprotein (P-gp) expression and a lower intracellular doxorubicin level than the parental cells. CG5/Dx cells were 19.4 fold more resistant to Dx than CG5 cells and showed a cross-resistance to some structurally...
