Abstract

Multidrug resistance(MDR) is one of the main obstacles limiting the efficacy of clinical chemotherapy treatment for tumors.Searching for highly effective and lowly toxic reversal agents for MDR is a hot field in regard to cancer drug development.The mechanisms of MDR mainly include P-glycoprotein,muhidrugresistance-associated protein,breast cancer resistance protein,1ung resistant-related protein,etc..MDR reversal agents include calcium channel blockers,Verapam and its derivative,etc..This paper mainly introduces the mechanisms of MDR and the development of MDR reversal agents.
