Membrane expression of MRP-1, but not MRP-1 splicing or Pgp expression, predicts survival in patients with ESFT

Abstract: Background:Primary Ewing's sarcoma family of tumours (ESFTs) may respond to chemotherapy, although many patients experience subsequent disease recurrence and relapse. The survival of ESFT cells following chemotherapy has been attributed to the development of resistant disease, possibly through the expression of ABC transporter proteins.Methods:MRP-1 and Pgp mRNA and protein expression in primary ESFTs was determined by quantitative reverse-transcriptase PCR (RT-qPCR) and immunohistochemistry, respectively, and… Show more

“…Previous studies have described MRP-1 in the nucleus (3,4,64), and in this study, we demonstrate coprecipitation and colocalization of HSP70 with MRP-1 in this organelle. This observation suggests that MRP-1 may also be a client protein for HSP70, and supports the hypothesis that multiple proteins of the HSP family may be organelle-specific chaperones for MRP-1.…”

“…However, previous clinical data suggest that the levels of P-gp have no significant influence on survival in cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy [29]. This implies that other as yet unidentified factors may be involved in the regulation of P-gp function and affect the survival of P-gp positive patients.…”

“…Members of the ABC transporter family have the capacity to efflux small molecules, causing drug accumulation in the cell (including the accumulation of anticancer drugs) to decrease, and thus contribute to drug resistance (10). The clinical significance of P-gp and MRP1 in drug resistance is supported by evidence that their expression indicates an adverse prognosis in patients with a range of types of cancer (11,12). Yang et al (13) demonstrated that Nsc23925 could prevent the development of paclitaxel resistance by inhibiting the expression of P-gp and enhancing apoptosis.…”
