In vitro efficacy of known P-glycoprotein modulators compared to droloxifene E and Z: studies on a human T-cell leukemia cell line and their resistant variants.
P-glycoprotein(P-gp)- related resistance is one of the major obstacles in treating leukemia patients. Therefore, it is of clinical interest to find new potential modulators and compare their P-gp-modulating efficacy. The present analysis investigated the influence of P-gp modulators, such as verapamil, tamoxifen, droloxifene E, droloxifene Z, SDZ PSC 833 (PSC 833) and dexniguldipine in a leukemic T-cell line (CCRF-CEM) and its P-gp-resistant counterparts (CCRF-CEM/ACT400 and CCRF-CEM/VCR1000). P-gp expression was assessed with an immunocytological technique using the monoclonal antibody 4E3.16. It was characterized as the percentage of P-gp positive cells and also expressed as a D value by using the Kolmogorov Smirnov statistic. The efficacy of P-gp modulators was determined with the rhodamine-123 accumulation test and the MTT test. An in vitro modulator concentration between 0.1 microM and 3 microM was determined, where no genuine antiproliferative effect was apparent. The modulators PSC 833 and dexniguldipine were the significant (p Topics: Antibodies, Monoclonal; ATP Binding Cassette Transporter, Subfamily B, Member 1; ATP-Binding Cassette Transporters; Cell Division; Cyclosporins; Dihydropyridines; Drug Resistance, Multiple; Drug Resistance, Neoplasm; Drug Screening Assays, Antitumor; Humans; Leukemia, T-Cell; Multidrug Resistance-Associated Proteins; Neoplasm Proteins; Tamoxifen; Tumor Cells, Cultured; Vault Ribonucleoprotein Particles; Verapamil | 1998 |
