Biophysical characterization of MDR breast cancer cell lines reveals the cytoplasm is critical in determining drug sensitivity.
Dielectrophoresis (DEP) was used to examine a panel of MCF-7 cell lines comprising parental MCF-7 cells and MDR derivatives: MCF-7TaxR (paclitaxel-resistant, P-glycoprotein (P-gp) positive), MCF-7DoxR (doxorubicin-resistant MRP2 positive) plus MCF-7MDR1 (MDR1 transfected, P-gp positive). MCF-7DoxR and MCF-7MDR1 were broadly cross-resistant to natural product anticancer agents, whereas MCF-7TaxR cells were not, contrary to P-gp expression. Whilst DEP revealed modest membrane changes in MDR sub-lines, we saw significant changes in their cytoplasmic conductivity: MCF-7TaxR Topics: Anthracyclines; Antineoplastic Agents; ATP Binding Cassette Transporter, Subfamily B, Member 1; ATP Binding Cassette Transporter, Subfamily G, Member 2; ATP-Binding Cassette Transporters; Breast Neoplasms; Carbocyanines; Cell Line, Tumor; Cell Survival; Cisplatin; Colchicine; Cytoplasm; Doxorubicin; Drug Resistance, Multiple; Drug Resistance, Neoplasm; Electrophoresis; Etoposide; Female; Fluorescent Dyes; Humans; Inhibitory Concentration 50; Membrane Potentials; Membrane Transport Proteins; Multidrug Resistance-Associated Protein 2; Multidrug Resistance-Associated Proteins; Neoplasm Proteins; Paclitaxel; Phenotype | 2007 |
