Aquatic organisms are inherently equipped with a mechanism that rescues them by pumping potentially toxic xenobiotics out of the cells before they express their deleterious potential. The presence of this multixenobiotic resistance (MXR) mechanism ma

The protective function of multixenobiotic resistance (MXR) mechanism in aquatic organisms can be inhibited by many chemical compounds, the chemosensitizers. The presence of these MXR-inhibitors has important implications on environmental parameters

Mechanism of multixenobiotic resistance (MXR), identical to multidrug resistance (MDR) in tumor cells, has been found in aquatic invertebrates. The presence of this ATP-dependent membrane P-glycoprotein (Pgp) pump was confirmed by biochemical (`bindi

The invasive growth of the introduced green alga Caulerpa taxifolia, already affecting the richness and diversity of the littoral ecosystems, has become a major ecological problem in the Mediterranean Sea. Previously, we demonstrated that the water p

Xenobiotics in water that can inhibit the multixenobiotic resistance (MXR) defense mechanism in water organisms, the chemosensitizers, may cause severe ecotoxicological effects. We determined their concentrations in polluted and unpolluted river wate

Experiments were carried out with the marine sponge Suberites domuncala to determine whether sponges may express - like mammalian tumor cells a multidrug-like transporter system. The results demonstrate that sponge cells possess such a protective sys

The gills of mussel Mytilus galloprovincialis express a multixenobiotic resistance mechanism (MXRM) mediated by P-glycoprotein activity, as evidenced by the rate of (G-3H) vincristine accumulation and its sensitivity to verapamil, as well as by the d

In gills of the marine mussel Mytilus galloprovincialis there is a P-glycoprotein-mediated multixenobiotic resistance mechanism (MXRM) which is similar to the multidrug resistance (MDR) mechanism in tumor cells resistant to cytotoxic drugs. This mech

This is the first documentation of a heat shock protein (hsp) response in sponges. Subjecting the freshwater sponge Ephydatia fluviatilis to temperature stress (18 to 33 C; 2 h) resulted in an increased expression (>10 times) of the M{sub r}70,000 (h

Since lower animals develop neoplasia rarely or not at all, the DNA- and chromosomal-alterations observed in them after exposure to genotoxic chemicals should be correlated to some genotoxic endpoint other than neoplasia. On the basis of good correla
