TLDR
It is concluded that MX2 conquers multidrug resistance by rapid influx following a higher frequency of formation of DNA single- and double-strand breaks in K562/ADM cells.Abstract:
The mechanism of action of 3′-deamino-3′-morpholino-13-deoxo-10-hydroxycarminomycin (MX2) was examined in a human leukemia cell line (K562) and its Adriamycin (ADM)-resistant subline (K562/ADM). ADM and MX2 showed an equivalent antitumor effect against K562. K562/ADM was highly resistant to ADM. In cellular pharmacokinetic studies, MX2 showed faster and greater influx than did ADM in both K562 and K562/ADM. The efflux of ADM was rapid in K562/ADM but not in K562. On the other hand, the efflux of MX2 was rapid in both cell lines. The formation of DNA single-strand breaks and double-strand breaks by ADM was significantly lower in K562/ADM than K562. On the other hand, formation of those breaks by MX2 was not decreased. Although some of the DNA breaks induced by MX2 were resealed, there was no difference in the degree of resealing in K562 and K562/ADM cells. On the other hand, most of the small number of DNA breaks in K562/ADM induced by ADM were resealed. The topoisomerase II activity in K562 and K562/ADM was not significantly different. It is concluded that MX2 conquers multidrug resistance by rapid influx following a higher frequency of formation of DNA single- and double-strand breaks in K562/ADM cells.read more

TL;DR: The present study suggested the importance of metallothionein in the mechanisms of cisplatin resistance, and established cis-diamminedichloroplatinum(II) (cisplatin) resistant human small cell lung cancer cell lines, H69/CDDP0.2 and H69 /CDDP, to investigate the mechanism of acquired resistance to cis platin.

Apoptosis Induced by Anthracycline Antibiotics in P388 Parent and Multidrug-resistant Cells
TL;DR: The results obtained demonstrate that the cell killing effect of anthracyclines is mediated, at least in part, by the induction of apoptosis.

Biophysical aspects of p-glycoprotein-mediated multidrug resistance
Randy M. Wadkins,Paul D. Roepe +1 more
TL;DR: Biophysical issues are highlighted and it is described how delta psi zero and pHi may in fact be responsible for many MDR-related phenomena that have often been hypothesized to be due to direct drug translocation by P-gp, and also changes plasma membrane electrical potential and intracellular pH.

Significance and measurement of DNA double strand breaks in mammalian cells
TL;DR: In this article, the authors evaluate commonly used assays for measuring DNA double strand breaks, focusing on neutral filter elution and pulsed field gel electrophoresis, and explore the advantages and limitations of applying these techniques to problems of current interest in carcinogenesis and genetic toxicology.

TL;DR: The data suggest that upregulation of the MDR1 gene may represent a normal response of leukemic cells to cytotoxic stress and may contribute to clinical drug resistance.
