Chinese Journal of Tissue Engineering Research 2007;0(31):-
Lung transplantation is the unique method to cure pulmonary tuberculosis at final stage. This paper reviewed the history, indication and contraindication, method of donor and recipient selection and donor preservation, operation methods, postoperative complications and protocol for complications to well understand issues in lung transplantation. Moreover, lacking of donors and increasing mortality of patients waiting for transplantation are urgent problems. With technique development, prognosis amendment, and improvement of survival rate and quality of life, donor source becomes important. Many studies have been conducted to explore the application of cadaveric lung, and several animal trials have been successful. In addition, scope of in vivo pulmonary lobes transplantation is increasing. Based on split liver transplantation, split double-lung transplantation is developed. This method utilizes existed donor sources, and provides options for patients waiting for transplantation.

OBJECTIVE:
To study the effect of MDR1 (P-gp) and ABCG2 on the drug resistance in Hep 2 cells.
METHOD:
Flow cytometry was used to detect the variations of the antitumor drugs accumulation and discharging, and activity variations when MDR1 and ABCG2 inhibitors were used in Hep-2.
RESULT:
The accumulation and discharging of mitoxantrone was significantly higher than the control group when ABCG2 inhibitor FTC was used in Hep-2 (P<0. 05). In contrast, P-gp did not appear similar case; To the mitoxantrone and cisplatin, there was no statistical correlation about activity of Hep-2 between P-gp or ABCG2 antagonist and the control; To the doxorubicin, combining FTC and P-gp, the activity of Hep-2 was higher than the control and difference was significant (P<. 05), In contrast, FTC and P-gp did not appear similar case when used alone; To the 5-FU, when PGP used, the activity of Hep-2 was higher than that in the control and difference was significant (P<0. 05), In con- trast, FTC and FTC+P-gp did not appear similar case; To the paclitaxel, when P-gp or FTC+P-gp used, the activity of Hep-2 was higher than that in the control and difference was significant(P<0. 05).
CONCLUSION
ABCG2 may lead to drug resistance mainly by changing the ability of cell in accumulating and discharging chemotherapy drugs. P-gp has other way. P-gp and ABCG2 play different roles in different drug resistance.
