Abstract:
:Several lipophilic, cytotoxic drugs, or both, (including anticancer drugs [Vinca alkaloids, doxorubicin, cyclosporin A, and digoxin]) have proven to be actively effluxed by P-glycoprotein (P-gp) expressed at the luminal membrane of the brain capillary endothelial cells, resulting in the very low apparent blood-brain barrier (BBB) permeation of these P-gp substrates from the blood circulating to the brain. In rats inoculated with 9L-glioma cells into the brain, the endothelial cells of tumor-associated vessels allowed easy penetration of anticancer drugs (ranimustine and doxorubicin) in tumor regions, although the normal BBB function still operated at the normal brain region to provide a barrier to the accumulation of P-gp substrates. A detailed knowledge of the BBB function would be very helpful in developing improved delivery systems of anticancer drugs to brain tumors.
