Although cisplatin-based therapies are common among anticancer approaches, they are often associated with the development of cancer drug resistance. This phenomenon is, among others, caused by the overexpression of ATP-binding cassette, membrane-anchored transporters (ABC proteins), which utilize ATP to remove, e.g., chemotherapeutics from intracellular compartments. To test the possible molecular basis of increased expression of ABCC subfamily members in a cisplatin therapy mimicking model, we generated two cisplatin-resistant cell lines derived from non-small cell lung cancer cells (A549) and triple-negative breast cancer cells (MDA-MB-231). Analysis of data for A549 cells deposited in UCSC Genome Browser provided evidence on the negative interdependence between the occurrence of the CoREST complex at the gene promoters and the overexpression of |
