Circumvention of P-glycoprotein-mediated drug resistance in human leukaemic cells by non-immunosuppressive cyclosporin D analogue, SDZ PSC 833.

abstract：:Graft rejection and graft-versus-host disease are major problems in mismatched marrow transplants along with toxicity from standard myeloablative host treatments. We have established a tolerization model, using 1 Gy irradiation, which reduces stem cell capacity to < 10% of control while causing minimal myelosuppressio...
