Abstract excerpt
A Chinese hamster ovary cell line resistant to okadaic acid (OA), OAR2-3 has a mutation of the protein phosphatase (PP) 2A alpha gene and expresses a multi-drug resistance (MDR) phenotype. In the present work, we isolated two additional OA-resistant variants, also showing MDR with a cross-resistance profile similar to that of OAR2-3, and with increased and decreased expressions of the P-glycoprotein (Pgp) and DNA...
