MS-209 is a newly synthesized quinoline compound used orally to overcome human P-glycoprotein (Pgp)-mediated multidrug resistance (MDR). The multidrug resistance-associated protein (MRP) gene is thought to play an important role in MDR in lung cancer. To investigate whether MS-209 could also overcome MRP-mediated MDR, we examined the effect of the compound using a cytotoxicity assay on MDR1 gene-negative drug-selected MDR and wildtype lung cancer cells with various levels of MRP gene expression. The effects of MS-209 were compared with those of verapamil (VER) and cyclosporin A (CsA). The level of MRP gene expression in the cells was evaluated semiquantitatively by RT-PCR. For vincristine (VCR), intracellular accumulation of [3H]-VCR was measured with or without MS-209.
