  • Title: HM30181 Derivatives as Novel Potent and Selective Inhibitors of the Breast Cancer Resistance Protein (BCRP/ABCG2).
    Author: Köhler SC, Wiese M.
    Journal: J Med Chem; 2015 May 14; 58(9):3910-21. PubMed ID: 25855895.
    Abstract:
    The breast cancer resistance protein (BCRP, ABCG2) belongs to the superfamily of ATP binding-cassette (ABC) proteins. In addition to other physiological functions, it transports potentially cell-damaging compounds out of the cell using the energy from ATP hydrolysis. Certain tumors overexpressing BCRP were found to become resistant against various anticancer drugs. In previous work, we found that tariquidar analogues lacking the tetrahydroisoquinoline moiety selectively inhibit BCRP. In the present study, we synthesized 21 derivatives of the third-generation P-gp inhibitor HM30181, which is structurally related to tariquidar. The compounds were tested for their inhibitory activities against BCRP and screened against P-glycoprotein (P-gp, ABCB1) and multidrug resistance protein 1 (MRP1, ABCC1) to confirm the selectivity toward BCRP. The most potent compounds are selective toward BCRP and 2-fold more potent than the reference Ko143. Qualitative structure-activity relationship (SAR) analysis revealed that the presence of a methoxy group in the ortho or para position of at least one phenyl ring is beneficial for inhibitory activity. Furthermore, the cytotoxicity and multidrug resistance (MDR)-reversal ability of selected compounds were investigated. It was shown that they have a low cytotoxicity and the ability to reverse the BCRP-mediated SN-38 resistance.
