| Abstract | Chemotherapy is one of the major categories of medical oncology and a primary tumor treatment; however, the effectiveness of chemotherapy is restricted by drug resistance. Overcoming resistance to chemotherapy and investigating molecular targeted therapies are challenges currently faced during resistance management. Progesterone receptor membrane component 1 (PGRMC1) is an adapter protein mediating cholesterol synthesis, steroid signaling, and cytochrome p450 activation. Attention has recently focused on the role of PGRMC1 in cell survival, anti-apoptosis, and damage response. In the present study, we used knockdown and overexpression approaches in the following set of uterine sarcoma models to further evaluate the role of PGRMC1 in drug resistance: the doxorubicin-sensitive MES-SA cells and the doxorubicin-resistant MES-SA/DxR-2 µM and MES-SA/DxR-8 µM cells (with different levels of doxorubicin resistance). PGRMC1 repressed doxorubicin-induced cytotoxicity and exhibited an anti-apoptotic effect; it also promoted cell proliferation and cell cycle progression to the S phase. Of note, PGRMC1 overexpression led to the epithelial–mesenchymal transition (EMT) of the sensitive MES-SA cells, thus facilitating their migration and invasion. The combination of PGRMC1 knockdown and the P-glycoprotein inhibitor verapamil significantly decreased the viability of P-glycoprotein-overexpressing MES-SA/DxR-8 μM cells after doxorubicin treatment. Taken together, our results show that PGRMC1 contributed to chemoresistance through cell proliferation, anti-apoptosis, and EMT induction, leading to the suggestion that PGRMC1 may serve as a therapeutic target in combination with an inhibitor in different drug resistance pathways and indicating the usefulness of predictive resistance biomarkers in uterine sarcoma. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
