Journal ArticleDOI

Perspectives of P-glycoprotein modulating agents in oncology and neurodegenerative diseases: pharmaceutical, biological, and diagnostic potentials.

TL;DR: This review will focus on the physiological and pathological role of P-gp and will highlight the involvement of this protein both in MDR of tumors and in the physiological function of several barriers.
Journal ArticleDOI

Antiproliferative and cytotoxic effects of some σ2 agonists and σ1 antagonists in tumour cell lines

TL;DR: A new model for evaluating both σ2 and σ1 receptor activity of σ ligands is established, which could be useful for developing new ligands having mixed ρ2 agonist/σ1 antagonist activity as potential antineoplastic agents.
Journal ArticleDOI

Small P-gp modulating molecules: SAR studies on tetrahydroisoquinoline derivatives

TL;DR: A new class of small molecules displaying P-gp inhibitor activity differing from reference compounds Elacridar and Tariquidar is suggested for a simplified, and in the meantime, efficacious no-basic moiety.
Journal ArticleDOI

Structure-affinity relationship study on N-(1,2,3,4-tetrahydronaphthalen-1-yl)-4-aryl-1-piperazinealkylamides, a new class of 5-hydroxytryptamine7 receptor agents.

TL;DR: In relation to 5-HT7 receptor affinity, receptor binding studies indicated that the optimal alkyl chain length was five methylenes, and an unsubstituted 1,2,3,4-tetrahydronaphthalenyl nucleus was preferred, and the substitution pattern of the aryl ring linked to the piperazine ring played a crucial role.
