Abstract:
Aim To investigate the reversal of resistance to doxorubicin by CJZ3,a lomerizine derivative,in doxorubicin-resistant human myelogenous leukemia(K562/DOX)cells.Methods The effect of CJZ3 on P-glycoprotein(P-gp)function and resistance to doxorubicin in K562/DOX cells were observed by using flow cytometry and MTT assay.Results CJZ3 increased intracellular uptake and accumulation of rhodamine123(Rh123)in K562/DOX cells in a concentration-related manner,significantly inhibited the efflux of Rh123 from the cells,and increased the doxorubicin-induced cytotoxicity,apoptosis rate,Caspase-3 activity in doxorubicin-treated cells and the intracellular accumulation of doxorubicin.Conclusions The reversed effect of CJZ3 on resistance to doxorubicin in K562/DOX cells was associated with its inhibitory effect on P-gp function in vitro.
