Resistance to chemotherapy in cancer patients has been correlated to the overexpression of the ATPbinding cassette (ABC) drug transporters including P-glycoprotein (P-gp) that actively efflux chemotherapeutic drugs from cancer cells. We examined the mutidrug resistance reversing property of stemofol...
