Results: As2O3 at 0,4 to 0.8 μmol/L concentrations were not significantly cytotoxic to SGC7901/ADR cells, As2O3 at 0.8 μmol/L could improve the sensitivity of SGC7901/ADR cells to ADM via inhibiting P-gp function, down-regulating GST-Π expression and increasing the intracellular accumulation of ADM in SGC7901/ADR cells. Conclusion: As2O3 can reverse partly the drug-resistance of SGC7901/ADR cells to ADM, which may be related with inhibiting the P-gp function and down-regulating GST-Π expression.展开更多
