P-glycoprotein expression and function in circulating blood cells from
normal volunteers

In contrast to its clearly defined role as a multidrug efflux pump in
neoplastic cells, the physiologic function of P-glycoprotein (P-gly) in
normal cells is unclear. Recent reports identifying P-gly in normal blood
and bone marrow suggest that hematopoietic development or function may be
dependent on P-gly. To understand the normal function of P-gly in the
blood, its level of expression and function must first be quantitated
relative to a known standard. In this study, P-gly, MDR1 gene expression,
and P-gly function were quantitated in normal leukocytes. P-gly and MDR1
expression were analyzed in individual leukocyte lineages (T-helper,
T-suppressor, monocyte, granulocyte, B- lymphocyte, NK cell) from normal
volunteers. P-gly on the cell surface was detected by fluorescent
double-labeling for lineage (CD4, CD8, CD14, CD15, CD19, CD56,
respectively) and P-gly (MRK16) with analysis by flow cytometry and in some
cases immunoblot analysis. MDR1 mRNA analysis on purified lineages was
performed using quantitative reverse transcription-polymerase chain
reaction. P-gly function was determined for each lineage using
dual-labeling for lineage and P-gly substrate (rhodamine 123). The P-gly
expressing human myeloma cell line, 8226/Dox6, was used as a reference of
comparison for levels of P-gly, MDR1 mRNA, and function. CD56+ cells
expressed the highest levels of MDR1 mRNA followed by CD8+ > CD4+
approximately equal to CD15+ > CD19+ > CD14+, with percentage values
relative to Dox6 of 49%, 17%, 8%, 8%, 4%, and 2%, respectively. The assays
for P-gly immunofluorescence and function correlated well with mRNA
analysis except for CD15+ cells (granulocytes), which showed a moderate
MDR1 mRNA level with a lack of both function and surface P-gly staining.
Granulocyte membranes did show P-gly on immunoblot analysis when probed
with either C219 or JSB1. We conclude that (1) P-gly and the MDR1 mRNA are
expressed in normal leukocytes, (2) this P-gly expression is lineage
specific with relatively high levels among CD56+ cells, and (3) the
expression of P- gly in granulocytes is not associated with transport of
the P-gly substrate, rhodamine 123, out of the cell.
