Abstract
Over 80% of ovarian cancer patients develop chemoresistance which results in a lethal course of the disease. A well-established cause of chemoresistance involves the family of ATP-binding cassette transporters, or ABC transporters that transport a wide range of substrates including metabolic products, nutrients, lipids, and drugs across extra- and intra-cellular membranes. Expressions of various ABC transporters, shown to reduce the intracellular accumulation of chemotherapy drugs, are increased following chemotherapy and impact on ovarian cancer survival. Although clinical trials to date using ABC transporter inhibitors have been disappointing, ABC transporter inhibition remains an attractive potential adjuvant to chemotherapy. A greater understanding of their physiological functions and role in ovarian cancer chemoresistance will be important for the development of more effective targeted therapies. This article will review the role of the ABC transporter family in ovarian cancer progression and chemoresistance as well as the clinical attempts used to date to reverse chemoresistance.

Abstract
P-glycoprotein (P-gp) is an ATP binding cassette (ABC) transporter that helps to protect several certain human organs from xenobiotic exposure. This efflux pump is also responsible for multi-drug resistance (MDR), an issue of the chemotherapy approach in the fight against cancer. Therefore, the discovery of P-gp inhibitors is considered one of the most popular strategies to reverse MDR in tumour cells and to improve therapeutic efficacy of commonly used cytotoxic drugs. Until now, several generations of P-gp inhibitors have been developed but they have largely failed in preclinical and clinical studies due to lack of selectivity, poor solubility and severe pharmacokinetic interactions. In this study, three models (SION, SIO, SIN) to classify specific 'true' P-gp inhibitors as well as three other models (CPBN, CPB1, CPN) to distinguish between P-gp inhibitors, CYP 3A inhibitors and co-inhibitors of these proteins with rather high accuracy values for the test set and the external set were generated based on counter-propagation neural networks (CPG-NN). Such three and four-class classification models helped provide more information about the bioactivities of compounds not only on one target (P-gp), but also on a combination of multiple targets (P-gp, CYP 3A).

Abstract
The P-glycoprotein (P-gp) is thought to be involved in the regulation of volume-sensitive chloride channels. In this study, the possible coupling between P-gp and swelling-activated chloride channels has been examined in MCF7 cells with sensitive (MDR-), resistant (MDR+), and reversed resistant (MDR(REV)) phenotypes. Western blot analysis showed that incubation of cells with doxorubicin induced P-gp expression in a reversible manner. Exposure of MDR+ cells to hypotonicity resulted in an inhibition of P-gp activity while hypotonic challenges induced swelling-activated chloride currents (I(Cl-swell)) in MDR-, MDR+, and MDR(REV) MCF7 cells. While verapamil inhibited I(Cl-swell) in all cell types, doxorubicin and vincristine rapidly and reversibly inhibited I(Cl-swell) uniquely in MDR+. Intracellular dialysis of MDR+ cells with C219 anti-P-gp antibody abolished the sensitivity of I(Cl-swell) to doxorubicin and led to a response pattern very close to that of MDR- cells. Taken together, these results strongly suggest that the P-glycoprotein regulates I(Cl-swell) in resistant MCF7.

Abstract
Multi-drug resistance (MDR) in MCF7 breast cancer cells and multi-xenobiotic resistance (MXR) in mussel (Mytilus edulis) blood cells (MBC) are well known mechanisms that contribute to the decrease in intracellular concentrations of many unrelated but cytotoxic compounds. In the present work, we have carried out comparative investigations of the MDR/MXR protective mechanisms using a rapid colorimetric assay for cell viability and calcein accumulation for MDR/MXR activities. These studies were performed using cultured MCF7 and MBC before and after in vitro exposure to xenobiotics. Our results indicate that a 5-day exposure to doxorubicin or vincristine decreased calcein accumulation in MBC which is consistent with an induction of multi-xenobiotic resistance. The increase in calcein accumulation provoked by 1-h treatment with 50 microM verapamil was much lower in MBC when compared to the P-glycoprotein overexpressing MCF7 cell line. We conclude that such microplate assays could be used in primary cultures of MBC to estimate the effects of various chemicals on MXR activity.

Abstract
Overcoming drug resistance has become an important issue in cancer chemotherapy. Among all known mechanisms that confer resistance, active efflux of chemotherapeutic agents by proteins from the ATP-binding cassette family has been extensively reported. The aim of the present study was to determine the involvement of ABCG2 in resistance to SN38 (the active metabolite of irinotecan) in colorectal cancer. By progressive exposure to increasing concentrations of SN38, we isolated 2 resistant clones from the human colon carcinoma cell line HCT116. These clones were 6- and 53-fold more resistant to SN38 than the HCT116-derived sensitive clone. Topoisomerase I expression was unchanged in our resistant variants. The highest resistance level correlated with an ABCG2 amplification. This overexpression was associated with a marked decrease in the intracellular accumulation of SN38. The inhibition of ABCG2 function by Ko143 demonstrated that enhanced drug efflux from resistant cells was mediated by the activity of ABCG2 protein and confirmed that ABCG2 is directly involved in acquired resistance to SN38. Furthermore, we show, for the first time in clinical samples, that the ABCG2 mRNA content in hepatic metastases is higher after an irinotecan-based chemotherapy than in irinotecan-naive metastases. In conclusion, this study supports the potential involvement of ABCG2 in the development of irinotecan resistance in vivo.

Abstract
Abstract
Glioblastoma is a therapeutic challenge as a highly infiltrative, proliferative, and resistant tumor. Among novel therapeutic approaches, proteasome inhibition is very promising in controlling cell cycle and inducing apoptosis. This study investigated the effect of ritonavir, a protease inhibitor of the HIV and a proteasome modulator, on glioma cells. The hypothesis was that proteasome modulation, mainly by only inhibiting proteasome chymotrypsin-like activity, could be sufficient to control tumor progression. The experiments were done on a human glioblastoma-derived GL15 cell line and a rat nitrosourea-induced gliosarcoma 9L cell line. Culturing conditions included monolayer cultures, transplantations into brain slices, and transplantations into rat striata. The study demonstrates that ritonavir, by inhibiting the chymotrypsin-like activity of the proteasome, has cytostatic and cytotoxic effects on glioma cells, and can induce resistances in vitro. Ritonavir was unable to control tumor growth in vivo, likely because the therapeutic dose was not reached in the tumor in vivo. Nevertheless, ritonavir might also be beneficial, by decreasing tumor infiltration, in the reduction of the deleterious peritumor edema in glioblastoma.

Abstract
Multidrug resistance has been a major problem in cancer chemotherapy. In this study, in vitro and in vivo modulations of MDR by ginsenoside Rg(3), a red ginseng saponin, were investigated. In flow cytometric analysis using rhodamine 123 as an artificial substrate, Rg(3) promoted accumulation of rhodamine 123 in drug-resistant KBV20C cells in a dose-dependent manner, but it had no effect on parental KB cells. Additionally Rg(3) inhibited [3H]vinblastine efflux and reversed MDR to doxorubicin, COL, VCR, and VP-16 in KBV20C cells. Reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction and immuno-blot analysis after exposure of KBV20C cells to Rg(3) showed that inhibition of drug efflux by Rg(3) was due to neither repression of MDR1 gene expression nor Pgp level. Photo-affinity labeling study with [3H]azidopine, however, revealed that Rg(3) competed with [3H]azidopine for binding to the Pgp demonstrating that Rg(3) competed with anticancer drug for binding to Pgp thereby blocking drug efflux. Furthermore, Rg(3) increased life span in mice implanted with DOX-resistant murine leukemia P388 cells in vivo and inhibited body weight increase significantly.

Abstract
P-Glycoprotein (Pgp)-mediated drug efflux can yield a multidrug-resistance phenotype that is associated with poor response to cancer chemotherapy. Pervilleines B and C (PB and PC), two new tropane alkaloid aromatic esters obtained from a chloroform extract of the roots of Erythroxylum pervillei as the result of bioactivity-guided fractionation, were found to restore the vinblastine (VLB) sensitivity of cultured multidrug-resistant KB-V1 cells, with 50% inhibitory concentration values of 0.17 microM in each case. To explore the potential relevance of this response, KB-V1 cells were placed in hollow fibers and implanted into NCr nu/nu mice. Cell growth was not significantly inhibited when VLB or PB or PC were administered as single agents, but when used in combination with vinblastine inhibition of up to 77.7% was observed. Equimolar doses of verapamil were less effective. These data suggest that PB and PC are effective inhibitors of Pgp and should be further evaluated for clinical utility.

Abstract
It was reported that xanthine derivatives (caffeine and 1-methyl-3-propyl-7-butylxanthine) enhanced the antitumor activity of doxorubicin (DOX) with increasing DOX concentrations in tumors in vivo in our previous papers. In addition, these actions were found to be related to the inhibitory activity toward DOX efflux from tumor cells in vitro. In this study, we searched for novel biochemical modulators of DOX among 3-n-propylxanthines with functional groups at the 1- or 7-position by using an assay system for their inhibitory effect on DOX efflux from P388 leukemia and DOX resistant P388 leukemia (P388/DOX) cells. 1-Substituted xanthines facilitated the DOX efflux from P388 cells. In contrast, among 7-substituted xanthines, XT-141 and XT-139 significantly inhibited the DOX efflux from P388 cells. In addition, XT-141 inhibited the DOX efflux from P388/DOX cells, and P-glycoprotein (P-gp) inhibitor facilitated DOX influx and inhibited DOX efflux from P388/DOX cells in a dose-dependent manner. These results indicated that the resistance of P388/DOX might depend on the over-expression of P-gp, and that XT-141 inhibited DOX efflux through its interaction with P-gp. We suspect that XT-141 is a useful biochemical modulator of DOX in DOX-resistant tumors with over-expression of P-gp in addition in DOX-sensitive tumors.

Abstract
Given the lack of effective conventional therapy, those patients with recurrent or refractory ovarian cancer should be considered for currently approved investigational gene therapy protocols. Several studies have shown a potential modality of p53 gene transfer in cancer gene therapy. We also developed a new recombinant adenovirus carrying a wild-type p53 gene (AxCAp53). Although the efficacy of AxCAp53 to suppression of cell growth was not sufficient, AxCAp53 increased sensitivity to CDDP in ovarian cancer cells with deletion of the p53 gene. The combination of CDDP and AxCAp53 may be a potential strategy for the therapy of CDDP resistant ovarian cancer.
