Progesterone–adenine hybrids as bivalent inhibitors of P-glycoprotein-mediated multidrug efflux: Design, synthesis, characterization and biological evaluation
摘要:
Bivalent ligands were designed on the basis of the described close proximity of the ATP-site and the putative steroid-binding site of P-glycoprotein (ABCB1). The syntheses of 19 progesterone-adenine hybrids are described. Their abilities to inhibit P-glycoprotein-mediated daunorubicin efflux in K562/R7 human leukemic cells overexpressing P-glycoprotein were evaluated versus progesterone. The hybrid with a hexamethylene linker chain showed the best inhibitory potency. The efficiency of these progesterone-adenine hybrids depends on two main factors: (i) the nature of the linker and (ii) its attachment point on the steroid skeleton. (C) 2012 Elsevier Inc.

Steroidal bivalent ligands were designed on the basis of the described closer proximity of the ATP-site and the putative steroid-binding site of P-glycoprotein (ABCB1). The syntheses of seven progesterone-adenine hybrids were described. Their abilities to inhibit P-glycoprotein-mediated daunorubicin efflux in K562/R7 human leukemic cells overexpressing P-glycoprotein were evaluated versus progesterone. (C) 2010 Elsevier Ltd.
