Cabozantinib reverses ABCB1-mediated drug resistance in drug selected resistant cells

Treatment IC50 ± SDa (μM) (Resistant fold)

HEK293/pcDNA3.1 HEK293/ABCB1
Paclitaxel 0.063 ± 0.004(1.00) b 2.646 ± 0.212(42.12)
+ Cabo 2.5 μM 0.061 ± 0.003(0.96) 2.523 ± 0.232(40.19)
+ Cabo 5 μM 0.062 ± 0.006(0.97) 2.424 ± 0.233(38.47)
+ Verapamil 5 μM 0.062 ± 0.004(0.95) 0.073 ± 0.009 (0.99)*

Cell survival was determined by MTT assay as described in Material and Methods.

a

IC50 values are represented as the mean ± standard deviation (SD).

b

Resistance fold was calculated by the IC50 values for different substrates, and cisplatin of HEK293/pcDNA3.1 cell lines with cabozantinib or fumitremorgin C (FTC), or the resistant cell line HEK293/ABCB1 in the presence or absence of cabozantinib or FTC, divided by the IC50 values for different substrates of HEK293/pcDNA3.1without the reversing agents.

*

P<0.05, versus the control group.
