Journal ArticleDOI

Regorafenib overcomes chemotherapeutic multidrug resistance mediated by ABCB1 transporter in colorectal cancer: In vitro and in vivo study.

TL;DR: Clinical rationale for combination of conventional chemotherapy and targeted anticancer agents is provided and strategy to reposition one FDA-approved anticancer drug regorafenib to overcome the resistance of another FDA- approved, widely used chemotherapeutic paclitaxel may be a promising direction for the field of adjuvant chemotherapy.
Journal ArticleDOI

Bafetinib (INNO-406) reverses multidrug resistance by inhibiting the efflux function of ABCB1 and ABCG2 transporters.

TL;DR: Overall, this study indicated that bafetinib reversed ABCB1- and ABCG2-mediated MDR by blocking the drug efflux function of these transporters.
Journal ArticleDOI

β-elemene, a compound derived from Rhizoma zedoariae, reverses multidrug resistance mediated by the ABCB1 transporter

TL;DR: The in vitro findings indicated that β-elemene potentiates the cytotoxic effects of various antineoplastic drugs in cell lines overexpressing the ABCB1 transporter and that this is due to the inhibition of the efflux component of the ABC B1 transporter.
Journal ArticleDOI

Semi-synthetic ocotillol analogues as selective ABCB1-mediated drug resistance reversal agents

TL;DR: It is concluded that ORA reverseABCB1-mediated MDR by competitively inhibiting the ABCB1 drug efflux function by reverse the resistance to paclitaxel and vincristine in ABCB 1-overexpressing SW620/Ad300 and HEK/ABCB 1 cells.
