Cultured rat liver epithelial cells (RLE) transformed with repeated treatments of N-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine (MNNG) demonstrate many features of the common biochemical phenotype of multidrug resistance (MDR) seen in vivo in 'resistant hepatocytes'. The cells have increased glutathione-S-transferase placental subunit (GST-Yp), gamma-glutamyltranspeptidase (GGT), glutathione (GSH) and glutathione peroxidase and are resistant to MNNG. Phenotypically identical RLE cells spontaneously transformed by selective culture conditions showed low levels of GGT and GST and were not resistant to MNNG. Both chemical and spontaneous transformants are cross resistant to doxorubicin although resistance is consistently greater in chemical transformants. No direct correlation was found between the degree of resistance to doxorubicin and MDR gene expression in either of the chemically or spontaneously transformed RLE cells. These observations suggest that in chemical carcinogenesis, other mechanisms of drug detoxification are involved and that MDR expression is not a consistent feature.
