Association of High-Level MRP1 Expression With Poor Clinical Outcome in a Large Prospective Study of Primary Neuroblastoma

Abstract: The results of this prospective study confirm our earlier findings and support a clinically relevant role for MRP1 gene expression in neuroblastoma. These findings have implications for the biology, prognosis, and treatment of this disease and provide evidence that MRP1 is a bone fide molecular target for reversing chemotherapy resistance in aggressive drug-refractory neuroblastoma.

“…The expression by neuroblastoma cells of drug efflux transporters of the ABC transporter family such as MDR1 [44] and MRP1 [45] raises the possibility that drug efflux is a major determinant of the reduced sensitivity of neuroblastoma cells to imatinib. However, when evaluating this possibility the following points should be considered.…”

“…However, when evaluating this possibility the following points should be considered. First, imatinib is not a substrate for MRP1 [46] which in clinical settings [45] and in animal models [47] has been demonstrated to be a key factor for multidrug resistance in neuroblastoma. Second, although imatinib is a substrate of MDR1, the reported IC 50 of imatinib for MDR1 (3-8 mM) [48] is 1-2 log greater than the IC 50 of imatinib for its high affinity targets.…”

“…This was largely due to the fact that tumor samples contained a variable number of MRP1 expressing normal cells, cells, while other drug efflux transporters might contribute as well [44] . However, a prospective study demonstrated that MRP1 is an independent prognostic indicator of outcome in neuroblastoma patients [60] . In addition, a high expression of MRP1 was associated with shorter tumor-free survival (TFS) and overall survival (OS) in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) [61] .…”

“…When compared to methods such as RT-PCR to detect mRNA expression (10,11,12,110) Norris and colleagues demonstrated MRP4 mRNA expression in 100% of 52 neuroblastomas from untreated patients (110). In this population of 52 patients, high MRP4 mRNA expression was a significant indicator of poor survival.…”

“…In solid tumor cells, drug efflux can be mediated by members of the ABC transport protein superfamily. P-glycoprotein (Pgp) and multi-drug resistance associated protein 1 (MRP1), both members of the ABC transporter superfamily, are expressed in tumor specimens from children with neuroblastoma (10,11,12). High Pgp and/ or MRP1 expression in neuroblastoma is associated with poor prognosis.…”
