BRIEF REPORT
Expression of breast cancer resistance protein in blast cells
from patients with acute leukemia
Douglas D. Ross,
Judith E. Karp,

From the University of Maryland Greenebaum Cancer Center; the
Department of Medicine, Division of Hematology/Oncology, and Department
of Epidemiology and Preventative Medicine, University of Maryland
School of Medicine; and the Baltimore Veterans Medical Center,
Baltimore, MD.
Breast cancer resistance protein (BCRP) is a novel member of the
adenosine triphosphate-binding cassette superfamily of transport proteins. Transfection and enforced expression of BCRP in
drug-sensitive cells confer resistance to mitoxantrone, doxorubicin,
daunorubicin, and topotecan. We studied blast cells from 21 acute
leukemia patients (20 acute myeloid leukemia, 1 acute lymphocytic
leukemia) for the expression of BCRP mRNA using a
quantitative reverse-transcription polymerase chain reaction assay.
BCRP mRNA expression varied more than 1000-fold among the samples
tested, with low or barely detectable expression in half of
the samples. Seven samples (33%) had relatively high
expression of BCRP mRNA. High expression of BCRP did not correlate strongly with high expression of P-glycoprotein,
suggesting that BCRP may cause resistance to certain antileukemic
drugs in P-glycoprotein-negative cases. High expression of
BCRP mRNA is sufficiently frequent in AML to warrant more extensive
investigations to determine the relation of disease subtype and
treatment outcome to BCRP expression and function.
