ABCG2/BCRP interaction with the sea grass Thalassia testudinum

Abstract: T. testudinum extract could be included as MDR modulator, as interaction with ABCG2/BCRP has been shown through flow cytometry and MTT assays. The cells overexpressing ABCG2/BCRP in the presence of the extract (25-150 μg/mL) decreased the survival rates of the anti-tumoral mitoxantrone. Our results support its inclusion as a possible MDR modulator against tumor cells that overexpress ABCG2/BCRP.

“…In addition, Th shows acute anti-inflammatory effects in mice [ 36 ] and it displays selective anti-proliferative activity against cancer cells compared to normal cells [ 37 ]. Besides, the extract also inhibits drug efflux by ABCG2/breast cancer resistance protein (BCRP) and ABCB1/P-glycoprotein (MDR1 gene), increasing intracellular accumulation of anticancer agents [ 38 , 39 ]. Thus, the marine angiosperm T. testudinum has been considered a natural source of potential antitumor agents.…”
