Cytochemical screening for a panel of enzymes revealed increased 5' nucleotidase (5'NT) expression in 3 of 3 P-glycoprotein 170 (Pgp170)-positive multidrug-resistant (MDR) variants of the murine EL4 T-lymphoma cell line (EL4/ADM, ER2 and ER13). Electron microscopic localization established the presence of the membrane-bound ecto-form of the enzyme. Nine other murine, human and Chinese hamster cell lines and their MDR variants were tested for ecto-5'NT. Of these, 4 MDR variants (human cell lines MCF7A6, MCF7A2, HeLaJ2C and the murine cell line L1210A) showed increased expression of ecto-5'NT, when compared with their parental cell lines. The findings with cells of human origin were confirmed by immunofluorescent localization with a specific monoclonal antibody (MAb) (27.2) against the human ecto-5'NT. All MDR cell lines with elevated ecto-5'NT expression were generated by doxorubicin treatment. These cells were more sensitive than their parental cell lines to AMP at concentrations of 1.5-3.0 mM, confirming that the expressed ecto-5'NT was biologically active. The parental and MDR cells did not differ, in general, in their sensitivity to adenosine. An inhibitor of ecto-5'NT, alpha,beta-methyleneadenosine 5'-diphosphate, completely reversed the resistance of the EL4/ADM cell line to doxorubicin. The possibility exists of a functional relationship between the ecto-5'NT molecule and the members of the ATP-binding cassette transporter superfamily, important components of MDR, in some cell types.
