Chemotherapy is one of the method of cancer therapy, but the therapeutic effect is not enough because of drug resistance. It has been reported that tumor endothelial cells (TECs) show abnormal phenotype. TECs are resistant to anti-cancer drug. In this study, we tried to inhibit transporters which is related to drug resistance. Treatment of paclitaxel with transporter inhibitor inhibited TEC proliferation in vitro. In addition, treatment of paclitaxel with transporter inhibitor inhibited tumor growth compared to single paclitaxel treatment.
