ABCB1 (ATP Binding Cassette Subfamily B Member 1)

In vivo, co-administration of NYH-707 and paclitaxel significantly suppressed SW620/Ad300 xenograft growth without detectable systemic toxicity. These findings indicate that NYH-707 acts as a potent and selective ABCB1 modulator capable of reversing MDR likely by modulating ABCB1 conformational dynamics, thereby enhancing chemotherapeutic efficacy in resistant tumours.

OF12-GEL was non-irritant (PII = 0.33). These findings demonstrate a potent, safe, and targeted nanocarrier-based topical therapy for cSCC.

Curcumin exerts multi-targeted anti-leukemic effects in ALL. Clinical translation is constrained by its poor bioavailability and limited clinical data. Future research should focus on improving the bioavailability of curcumin via chemical or pharmaceutical modification, as well as conducting well-designed clinical trials.

Finally, co-treatment with 1l restored sensitivity of ABCG2-overexpressing cells to the anticancer drug SN38, effectively reversing the MDR phenotype. Collectively, these results identify N-methylpyrazole derivatives as promising selective inhibitors of ABCG2.

All the pyrrolobenzodiazepines tested - SJG136, SGD-1882, SG2057, and SG3199 - were substrates of P-gp, ABCG2, and MRP1. The modified anthracyclines nemorubicin and its metabolite PNU-159682 were poorly transported by both ABCB1 and ABCG2 and displayed nanomolar to picomolar toxicity. Further, we found that the efficacy of the FDA-approved ADC mirvetuximab soravtansine, with DM4 as the toxic payload, was decreased in cell lines expressing P-gp... Several commonly used ADC payloads can be transported by ABC transporters, potentially leading to transporter-mediated drug resistance in patients. Future ADCs should be developed using payloads that are not ABC transporter substrates.

Genetic silencing of ABCB1 or pharmacological inhibition with the specific P-glycoprotein modulator elacridar or tariquidar restored intracellular paclitaxel levels, as determined by UPLC-MS/MS, and synergistically decreased cell viability as observed in CCK-8 assay. These findings reveal that the ABCB1-mediated drug efflux is a crucial mechanism underlying paclitaxel resistance in NSCLC cells, with UPLC-MS/MS serving as a sensitive analytical method to detect paclitaxel concentration. Inhibition of ABCB1 is a promising therapeutic strategy to resensitize resistant tumor cells to paclitaxel.

Our findings indicate that while molecular weight and TPSA influence CNS penetration, efflux transporter interactions are more predictive of brain exposure. MSC-4070 represents a promising candidate for targeting TEAD-driven tumors in the central nervous system.

At the same time, we point out bottlenecks, such as low bioavailability, insufficient in vivo evidence, and unclear structure-activity relationship and put forward a proposal to address these bottlenecks. At the same time, the bottlenecks of low bioavailability, insufficient vivo evidence and unclear structure-activity relationship have been pointed out, and future research directions such as nano-delivery, structural optimization and combination strategies have been proposed to provide theoretical foundations and potential practical pathways for the clinical translation research of terpenoid compounds, whose clinical application still requires further in vivo validation and translational research support.

Berberine altered the microtubule cytoskeleton similarly to vincristine...Their relationship to berberine and its derivatives is novel. Berberine-type compounds may be new candidates against cancer; however, they may develop drug resistance.

Pharmacological inhibition of integrin α2β1 (BTT-3033), FAK (PF573228) and JNK (SP600125) effectively abrogated PDA-induced malignant phenotypes and restored chemosensitivity to cabazitaxel, cisplatin, docetaxel, curcumin, and enzalutamide. Collectively, these findings identify PDA-coated surfaces as a simple, efficient, and reductionist in vitro platform for studying adhesion-mediated signaling and phenotypic plasticity in PC cells, while acknowledging that further validation in three-dimensional (3D) and patient-derived models will be required to establish in vivo relevance.

These nanoformulations consistently enhance intracellular uptake and amplify anti-CSC effects in preclinical models. Overall, the consolidated evidence supports phytochemicals as potent modulators of CSC biology and underscores the need for optimized delivery strategies and evidence-based combination regimens to achieve meaningful clinical benefit.
