Expression of Drug Resistance Proteins Pgp, MRP1, MRP3, MRP5 AND GST-π in Human Glioma

C Calatozzolo, M Gelati, E Ciusani, FL Sciacca… - Journal of neuro …, 2005 - Springer
Chemotherapy in glioma is poorly effective: the blood–brain barrier and intrinsic and/or
acquired drug resistance of tumor cells could partly explain this lack of major effect. We …
