The gene and protein expression of chosen ABC transporters (multidrug resistance protein 1, ABCB1; multidrug resistance-associated protein 1, ABCC1; and breast cancer resistance protein, ABCG2) in human colorectal cancer cells (COLO 205 and COLO 320, which overexpress active ABCB1) was mainly studied in this work under the influence of a novel synthetic acridine-based chalcone, 1C. The gene discussed is ABCB1; the disease is colorectal cancer.
