We examined the multidrug resistant P‐glycoprotein (P‐gp) on normal bone marrow (BM) cells and acute myeloid leukaemia (AML) cells, using newly devised flow cytometric multi‐parameter analysis with CD33, CD34 and MRK16 monoclonal antibodies. In both normal BM cells and AML cells, CD34 + CD33 − cells expressed P‐gp strongly, CD34 + CD33 + cells moderately, and CD34 − CD33 + cells weakly. Acute promyelocytic leukaemia, mainly expressing CD34 − CD33 + but not CD34 + CD33 − at diagnosis, expressed less P‐gp. P‐gp expression of AML cells at diagnosis was increased as compared with normal cells of the same phenotype. P‐gp expression was more increased in relapsed cases, especially in immature subpopulations.
