Tumor cells may display a multidrug resistant phenotype by overexpression of ATP-binding cassette transporters such as multidrug resistance (MDR1) P-glycoprotein, multidrug resistance protein 1 (MRP1), and breast cancer resistance protein (BCRP). The presence of BCRP has thus far been reported solely using mRNA data. In this study, we describe a BCRP-specific monoclonal antibody, BXP-34, obtained from mice, immunized with mitoxantrone-resistant, BCRP mRNA-positive MCF-7 MR human breast cancer cells. BCRP was detected in BCRP-transfected cells and in several mitoxantrone- and topotecan-selected tumor cell sublines. Pronounced staining of the cell membranes showed that the transporter is mainly present at the plasma membrane. In a panel of human tumors, including primary tumors as well as drug-treated breast cancer and acute myeloid leukemia samples, BCRP was low or undetectable. Extended studies will be required to analyze the possible contribution of BCRP to clinical multidrug resistance.
