Background: ABCB5

The ATP-binding cassette sub-family B member 5 (ABCB5) is an ABC transporter and PGP member. It is highly expressed in skin and in malignant melanoma. When two abnormal growths of tissues occur, resulting in multiple malignancies, ABCB5 is often highly expressed. This elevated expression in tumor cells can indicate a propensity towards therapeutic failure in many cases. Analysis of ABCB5 concentrations in tumors has been suggested as a fairly dependable qualitative biomarker for assessing the malignancy of melanomas.
