Abstract

The description of a decrease in the intracellular accumulation of a number of cytostatics, such as anthracyclines, vinca alkaloids, epipodophyllotoxins, and actinomycin D, in drug-resistant malignant cells, which was first demonstrated for colchicine in Chinese hamster ovary cells [4], has substantially contributed to the understanding of “multidrug resistance” [6]. This process is caused by an energy-dependent outward pump in connection with the expression of the 170000-Da plasma membrane glycoprotein P170 [21].
