The expression profile of ABC transporter genes in post-treatment breast carcinomas
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporters contribute to development of resistance to anti-cancer drugs via ATP-dependent drug efflux. A major goal of our study was to investigate associations between expression of ABC transporters and outcome of breast carcinoma patients. ABCA5/6/8/9/10, ABCB1/5/11, ABCC6/9, ABCD2/4 and ABCG5/G8 were significantly downregulated and ABCA2/3/7/12, ABCB2/3/8/9/10, ABCC1/4/5/10/11/12, ABCD1/3, ABCE1, ABCF1/2/3 and ABCG1 upregulated in post-treatment tumors compared with non-neoplastic tissues. Significant associations of ABCC1 and ABCC8 levels in tumors with grade and expression of hormonal receptors were found. ABCA13 and ABCD2 levels significantly associated with the response to neoadjuvant chemotherapy in post-treatment patients.
