abstract：:Multidrug resistance (MDR) in mammalian tumors or tissues is often associated with the overexpression of the putative drug efflux pump P-glycoprotein (Pgp). One theory concerning the mechanism of Pgp activity is that efflux of ATP is coupled to drug efflux. Evidence in support of this theory has been observed in mamma...
