MDR(-) cell line MDR(+) cell line JNM 2001; 42:646-54 Lessons from investigations using nuclear imaging on MDR 1. Tc-99m complexes (MIBI, TF, FF; Tc-C) are substrates of Pgp. Tl-201 is not. 2. Accumulation (esp. of MIBI) in resistant tumors is lower than in sensitive tumors.
3. Pgp expression is inversely proportional to accumulation of Tc-C in tumor cells. 4. Intensity of Tc-C efflux out of tumor cells is good measure of MDR. accumulation efflux JNM 2001; 42:1476-83

Lesson from clinical studies using Tc-99m MIBI 1. Increased efflux rate from tumors with elevated Pgp expression, Increased uptake correlates with angiogenesis. 2. Rapid clearance out of tumor correlates with lack of response to chemotherapy. 3. Inverse correlation between T/N ratio and Pgp expression.
