Twenty-seven chalcogenopyrylium derivatives varying in the heteroatom of the pyrylium core and substituents at the 2-, 4-, and 6-positions were examined for their effect on human MRPI-mediated uptake of tritiated estradiol glucuronide into inside-out membrane vesicles, their affinity for and ability to stimulate the ATPase activity of purified human P-glycoprotein (P-gp)-His(10), and their ability to promote uptake of calcein AM and vinblastine in multidrug-resistant cells. Differences in their effects on MRP1 and P-gp activity were noted, and a second set of thiopyrylium compounds with systematic substituent changes was examined to refine these differences further. Derivatives with tert-butyl substituents in the 2- and 6-positions had the lowest inhibitory activity toward both transporters. Derivatives with thioamide functionality in the 4-position were more active against MRP1 than derivatives with amide functionality. Conversely, derivatives with amide functionality in the 4-position were more active in P-gp than derivatives with thioamide functionality.
