Title: Perifosine downregulates MDR1 gene expression and reverses multidrug-resistant phenotype by inhibiting PI3K/Akt/NF-κB signaling pathway in a human breast cancer cell line | ||

Abstract: P-glycoprotein (P-gp)-mediated multidrug resistance (MDR) is the major clinical impediment to chemotherapy of breast cancers. Down-regulation of PI3K/Akt pathway has been described as related to reversal of MDR in cancer cells. Here, we investigated the reversal effect on MDR phenotype of perifosine, a new Akt inhibitor, in breast cancer cell lines. In this study, MCF-7/ADM cells and MCF-7 cells were treated with different concentrations of perifosine. Our results suggested that perifosine reversed MDR partially by downregulation of P-gp expression and inhibition of PI3K/Akt/NF-κB pathway in the MCF-7/ADM cell line. The novel Akt inhibitor perifosine may be a promising new drug due to its ability to reverse MDR in human breast cancer cells. |
