Abstract excerpt
We have investigated the molecular basis of the 100-fold resistance of mutant human erythroleukemia K562/PMEA-1 cells to the antiproliferative potential of 9-(2-phosphonylmethoxyethyl)adenine (PMEA). Upon exposure to high PMEA concentrations, comparable intracellular PMEA levels were initially observed in mutant K562/PMEA-1 and wild-type K562/0 cells, indicating that PMEA influx was unaltered. However, after 4 hr...
