Introduction
Antitumor drug efflux caused by ATP-driven pumps is the primary
reason for chemoresistance.
The increased expression of ATP-binding cassette (ABC)
transporters gene family contributes to multidrug resistance (MDR)
via pumping out many anti–tumor drugs, thereby resulting in low
intracellular drug concentrations
ABC transporter

Introduction
ABC transporters are membrane transporters that can pump various
structurally unrelated cytotoxic drugs out of cells at the expense of ATP
hydrolysis.
ABC superfamily includes:
Multidrug resistance proteins (MRPs/ABCC)
Breast cancer resistance protein (BCRP/ABCG2)
P-glycoprotein (P-gp/ABCB1)

Introduction
Cancer stem cells (CSC) show high expression levels of ABC
transporters which play a major role in their chemoresistance
and great capacity for tumorigenesis.
The activity of these transporters can be followed through the
transport of fluorescent dyes like rhodamine and Hoechst.
This property has allowed CSC to be separated from non-stem
cells on fluorescence-activated cell sorters (FACS).

Introduction
Targeting ATP-driven efflux transporters
Several pharmacological agents that can interact with ABC
transporters have been developed to inhibit multidrug resistance
(MDR) such as verapamil, MRP1, MS-209 and VX-710.
Modified from Katzung
An alternative strategy targeting ABC transporters involves
regulating the protein expression levels of these transporters.
However, none of them is clinically successful because of the
dose limiting toxic effect of these modulators

caspase activation, PARP cleavage, colony formation

Conclusions
The results demonstrated the effectiveness of ERMAs such
as OSU-CG5 to overcome the chemoresistance to
doxorubicin via targeting breast CSCs population
Our findings raised the possibility that OSU-CG5 might be a
promising drug in combinatorial therapy with the existing
chemotherapeutic agents that fail to eliminate CSCs.
This combination strategy, therefore, may open a new
avenue for more effective therapies for treatment-resistant
breast carcinomas.
