Outline of Final Research Achievements

There is the acquisition of anticancer drug resistance capacity as an anti-cancer agent treatment of the problem with respect to cancer, there is an over-expression of anticancer drug resistance ABC transporter in one of the factors. In this study aimed to clarify the effect on ABC transporters curcumin derivatives.
Using carcinoma cell lines overexpressing anticancer drug resistance ABC transporters, and FACS analysis using a fluorescent substrate specific for the ABC transporter in the presence of curcumin derivative inhibitory effect of ABC transporter function was suggested. Anticancer drug sensitivity was increased to about 20-fold in the presence of curcumin derivatives examined the anticancer drug sensitivity in cell toxicity test. Potential as an inhibitor for the ABC transporter curcumin derivatives have been suggested.
