Design, synthesis, and biological evaluation of 6-methoxy-2-arylquinolines as potential P-glycoprotein inhibitors [PDF]
Objective(s): In the present study,a new series of 6-methoxy-2-arylquinoline analogues was designed and synthesized as P-glycoprotein (P-gp) inhibitors using quinine and flavones as the lead compounds. Materials and Methods: The cytotoxic activity of the

Effect of the modulation of the membrane lipid composition on the localization and function of P-glycoprotein in MDR1-MDCK cells [PDF]
Summary: Multidrug resistance (MDR) is a major obstacle in cancer therapy. It results from different mechanisms; among them is P-glycoprotein (P-gp)-mediated drug efflux out of cells. The mechanism of action remains elusive.

Assessment of P-gp and MRP1 activities using MultiDrugQuant Assay Kit : a preliminary study of correlation between protein expressions and its functional activities in newly diagnosed acute leukaemia patients. [PDF]
Multidrug resistance (MDR) is believed to be responsible for poor response of patients towards chemotherapy particularly patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). The best-characterized resistance mechanism is the

CO carbonylation and first evaluation as a P-gp tracer in rats [PDF]
BACKGROUND: At present, several positron emission tomography (PET) tracers are in use for imaging P-glycoprotein (P-gp) function in man. At baseline, substrate tracers such as R-[(11)C]verapamil display low brain concentrations with a distribution volume
