Palmatine sensitizes chemoresistant triple negative breast cancer cells via efflux inhibition of multidrug resistant protein 1.
Chemoresistance develops in triple negative breast cancer cells during prolonged therapy with chemotherapeutic drugs, diminishing the benefits of these drugs in breast cancer patients. Palmatine, a natural alkaloid extracted from several medicinal plants in West Africa, has been studied in vitro and...

Chemoresistance develops in triple negative breast cancer cells during prolonged therapy with chemotherapeutic drugs, diminishing the benefits of these drugs in breast cancer patients. Palmatine, a natural alkaloid extracted from several medicinal plants in West Africa, has been studied in vitro and found to be a promising anticancer agent for treating triple negative breast cancer. This study seeks to investigate the therapeutic potential of palmatine in sensitizing resistant 4T1 triple negative breast cancer cells to doxorubicin therapy. Cell viability, Hoechst dye membrane transport, intracellular doxorubicin accumulation and Adenosine triphosphatase (ATPase) assays were performed.
