Mechanism of protein kinase Cα mediated multidrug resistance in human glioma cell line SHG-44
Objective To understand the molecular mechanism by which protein kinase Cα mediates multidrug resistance of human glioma cell line SHG-44. Methods SHG-44/ADM was constructed by stepwise concentration increasing method and intermittent administration method. SHG-44/WT and SHG-44/ADM were treated by PKCα reactivator PMA and PKCα inhibitor staurosporine
then the expressions of PKCα and MDR-1 were detected by Western blotting
the PKCα activity was assayed by kinase
and ADM accumulation was determined by fluorescence spectrometry. Results PMA increased PKCα activity and MDR-1 protein expression and activity. Staurosporine was able to block PKCα activity and decrease MDR-1 expression and activity. Conclusion Multidrug resistance in human glioma cells is mediated by PKCα via MDR-1 pathway.
