Discovery and Synthesis of 3- and 21-Substituted Fusidic Acid Derivatives As Reversal Agents of P-glycoprotein-mediated Multidrug Resistance.
European Journal of Medicinal Chemistry(2019)
摘要
In this study, we synthesized 23 fusidic acid (FA) derivatives and screened them for tumor drug resistance reversal activity and cytotoxicity toward the KBV (multidrug-resistant oral epidermoid carcinoma) cell line based on MTT assay. Tumor resistance reversal activity of fusidic acid (FA) derivatives was discovered for the first time. Our results showed that compound 1 enhanced the cytotoxicity of paclitaxel toward the drug-resistant KBV cells at a concentration of 5 μM. And compound 1 sensitized KBV cells toward paclitaxel in arresting cells in the G2/M phase and inducing cell apoptosis. Further researches showed that compound 1 inhibited the drug efflux activity of P-glycoprotein (P-gp) by increasing the ATPase activity of P-gp without affecting its expression. The structure-activity relationships (SARs) of the FA derivatives were also preliminarily investigated. Our findings indicate that compound 1 is a promising lead compound for designing FA derivatives with improved tumor drug resistance reversal activity in the future.
