Inhibition of P-glycoprotein-mediated multidrug efflux by aminomethylene and ketomethylene analogs of reversins

Bioorg Med Chem Lett. 2006 Nov 1;16(21):5700-3. doi: 10.1016/j.bmcl.2006.07.059. Epub 2006 Sep 6.

Abstract

Several aminomethylene analogs and a ketomethylene analog of reversins were synthesized in order to evaluate their ability to inhibit P-glycoprotein-mediated drug efflux in K562/R7 human leukemic cells overexpressing P-glycoprotein. These analogs retained good activity compared to cyclosporin A and the original reversins.
