Abstract excerpt
P-glycoprotein (P-gp), an important efflux transporter, is encoded by the MDR1 class of genes and is a major element of the multidrug resistance (MDR) phenomenon in breast cancers. The most common approved cause of MDR in cancer tissues is the over-expression of P-gp. At present, a novel potent anti-tumor compound RY10-4 has been synthesized by our team, which has a similar structure close to protoapigenone. We...
