Thus, we found that HIF-1α is closely associated with MDR in GC and that HIF-1α may suppress MDR1/P-gp, LRP and Bcl-2 expression by inhibiting miR-27a expression.
MTT assay, RT-PCR, Western blotting were employed to detect susceptibility of GC cells to chemotherapeutic agents (5-FU, L-OHP) in vitro, and expressions of ZNF139 and MDR associated genes MDR1/P-gp, MRP1, Bcl-2, Bax were also detected. siRNA specific to ZNF139 was transfected into MKN28 cells, then chemosensitivity of GC cells as well as changes of ZNF139 and MDR associated genes were detected.
Notch1, a transmembrane receptor that has a notable role in gastric cancer (GC) as an oncogene, has been reported to be involved in doxorubicin resistance.
We evaluated the frequency of ABCB1 polymorphisms (2677G/T>A and 3435C>T) and studied the association between the polymorphisms and clinical outcomes of paclitaxel-based chemotherapy in advanced gastric cancer patients.
This review will discuss the current state of knowledge of these new therapy resistance-associated factors, e.g. glypican-3 (GPC3), as well as the impact of well-known drug resistance-associated factors, such as MDR1/P-glycoprotein, on therapy resistance of gastric carcinoma.
By introduction of anti-MDR1/P-gp shRNA expression vectors into the extremely high drug-resistant human gastric carcinoma cell line EPG85-257RDB, the MDR phenotype was completely reversed.
Among the cagA positive isolates, EPIYA-ABC motif was the most common motif in the GC (66.7%), PUD (55.6%) and Erosive Gastroduodenitis (EG) samples (55.2%), while EPIYA-ABCC was the most common motif (58.7%) in the Non-Ulcer Dyspepsia (NUD) samples.
The present study indicated that hyper-methylation of miR-129-5p CpG island might play important roles in the development of gastric cancer chemo-resistance by targeting MDR related ABC transporters and might be used as a potential therapeutic target in preventing the chemo-resistance of gastric cancer.
