Overexpression of Survivin and XIAP in MDR cancer cells unrelated to P-glycoprotein

Abstract: Abstract. Cancer cells developing multidrug resistance (MDR)is one of the most serious clinical problems responsible for the failure of cancer chemotherapy. P-glycoprotein (P-gp) overexpression and inhibitor of apoptosis proteins (IAPs) overexpression in cancer cells are the two common mechanisms of MDR. However, the relationship between IAPs and P-gp in MDR cancer cells is unknown. We investigated the expression levels of two IAPs, Survivin and XIAP, and their interaction with P-gp in MDR cancer cells. We hav… Show more

“…Although a previous study showed different results (39), the present study demonstrated that survivin and P-gp played important roles in multidrug resistance in breast cancer MCF-7 cells. The expression and transcription of survivin were regulated by P-gp to result in drug resistance.…”

“…Further, we confirmed these results from a DNA microarray by western blot analysis. Moreover, our cell cycle analysis shows that GP induces cell cycle arrest at the G0/G1 phase in prostate is an inhibitor of apoptosis protein (IAP), which is overexpressed in human cancer cells and plays an important role in apoptosis [41][42][43][44]. Thus, the inhibition of proliferation of prostate cancer cells by GP is mediated by the expression of genes involved in the cell cycle and survival.…”

“…According to the recent literature, survivin overexpression appears to correlate with poorer prognosis in LSCC [20,21]. Currently, the relationship between survivin and P-gp expression in malignancies is still controversial [22,23].…”
