HeyA8, HeyA8-MDR, SKOV3, SKOV3-TR, Tyk-nu and Tyk-nu-R cells were harvested using non-enzymatic CellStripper solution (Corning Inc. Corning, NY) to preserve membrane integrity. After washing, the cells (5 × 105) were stained with 10 µL of either FITC-labeled anti-P-gp antibody or PE-labeled anti-MRP1 antibody on ice for 30 minutes. After spinning down, cells were resuspended in HBSS with 1% FBS and expression was analyzed by an LSR II Fortessa cell analyzer (BD Biosciences) (38 (link)). The data were processed by FlowJo software (Tree Star Inc).
