Abstract

This paper summarizes the mechanisms of multidrug resistance(MDR) and the probable mechanism of the tetrandrine's inhibition action on MDR.The possible mechanisms include: inhibiting the function of P-glycoprotein,inducing cell apoptosis,decreasing the activity of protein kinaseC(PKC),influencing the expression of nuclear factor kappaB and the level of intracellular calcium.
