Abstract

Disclosed are methods for detecting neoplastic or damaged cells and for detecting multidrug resistance in neoplastic or damaged cells by detecting an increase in the cellular expression of a triosephosphate isomerase (TPI) protein in a multidrug resistant neoplastic or damaged cells as compared to the level of expression of the triosephosphate isomerase protein in a normal cell.
